Since 1965 Bowen Auto has been a fixture in Bonney Lake. Beginning on the land now inhabited by Alberson's, the Bowen family has sold vehicles anyone could afford, sometimes for only $5. Owner David Bowen moved Bowen Auto to its current location on Highway 410 next to Emerald Links driving range and across from ProBuild (formerly Lumbermen's) in March 2000. David's motto is, "we sell vehicles too good to go to scrap." He offers affordable options, selling cars that will run and usually will have a price tag less than $1,500.
