For more than 65 years, Military AutoSource (MAS) has proudly served those who serve by simplifying the car-buying process for the U.S. Military community overseas. The MAS team takes pride in delivering exceptional customer experiences and helping service members find the right vehicle to fit their unique needs and budget.
Navy Seaman Apprentice, Tanner Walker, shares his firsthand experience purchasing a new truck from MAS in Sigonella, Italy, and how he received an unexpected surprise along the way.
Using his OCONUS Military Benefits
Before visiting Military AutoSource in Sigonella, Italy, U.S. Navy Seaman Apprentice Walker, knew very little about the MAS and the car-buying benefits available to service members while overseas.
That quickly changed when he met MAS Sales Specialist Kevin Sheil. Kevin walked him through his options and introduced him to the 2025 Ford Maverick XL. This compact truck, known for its versatility and affordability, proved to be the perfect vehicle to fit his needs. Most importantly, MAS made the car-buying process simple and hassle-free.
“He bought from me, it was a wonderful experience, said Kevin Sheil. He hasn’t stopped smiling since he first came into my office!”

A Double Dose of Good News
While SA Walker waited for his new truck to be ready, he got an unexpected phone call from Kevin.
Not only had his truck arrived and was ready for delivery, but he had also been randomly selected as the winner of a Military AutoSource giveaway for a $250 Exchange gift card!
What started as the excitement on getting a new vehicle suddenly became an even bigger reason to celebrate.
Here’s what Seaman Apprentice Walker had to say about working with Military AutoSource: “Kevin Sheil is a terrific salesman and I will be recommending all my peers to purchase a vehicle from him!”
Small Truck. Big Personality.
The Ford Maverick is the kind of truck that just makes sense from the moment you get behind the wheel. It’s easy to drive, great on fuel, and still gives you the utility of a pickup when you need it.
From daily commutes to weekend projects, it fits right into your routine. It’s a smart and versatile choice that delivers exactly what drivers need.
Taking Home More Than a Vehicle
Every interaction reinforced SA Walker’s confidence that he wasn’t just buying a car, he was working with a team that truly valued his needs and appreciated his service.
The team at Military AutoSource would like to thank Navy Seaman Apprentice, Tanner Walker for sharing his experience and congratulate him on his new truck and giveaway win. Welcome to the MAS and Built Ford Tough family!
