Quality cars.
Real approvals.
A dealer who listens.
Blessed Rides was built for people who need a dependable car without the runaround of a traditional dealership. Hand-selected pre-owned vehicles, in-house financing, and one-on-one time with the owner.
Why Blessed Rides exists.
We specialize in quality pre-owned vehicles and practical in-house financing for customers who have a job, a down payment, and a real need for reliable transportation. Bad credit, no credit, or past financial challenges do not automatically mean "no" here. Because we finance customers directly, we look at the full picture — not just a credit score.
Every vehicle on the lot is personally reviewed, inspected, and hand selected by Kip. The goal is simple: clean, road-ready cars at fair prices, with clear terms and a process that feels direct, respectful, and pressure-free.
Blessed Rides is by appointment only so every customer gets focused, one-on-one attention. No crowded showroom. No sales games. No getting passed from desk to desk. You work directly with Kip to find a car and a financing plan that makes sense for your situation.
For many customers, a car is more than transportation. It's how they get to work, take care of family, rebuild credit, and move forward. Blessed Rides exists to help make that possible.

Kip Hajjar is the owner of Blessed Rides, a small Carlsbad used-car dealership built around faith, service, and helping people move forward.
Kip is a Christian, and his faith is a major part of why Blessed Rides exists. He believes God has blessed his life greatly, and that those blessings come with a responsibility to help others. After years in the used-car business — including owning and operating 5 Grand Autoland in Oceanside — Kip wanted to create a dealership with a deeper purpose: to help hardworking people get into quality vehicles they can rely on, even when traditional financing is difficult.
Blessed Rides was built for people who may have bad credit, no credit, or past financial challenges — but who have a job, a small down payment, and a real need for dependable transportation. Kip understands that a reliable car can change someone's daily life. It can help them get to work, take care of family, rebuild stability, and create a better path forward.
Every vehicle at Blessed Rides is personally reviewed, inspected, and hand selected by Kip. He focuses on offering clean, dependable cars at fair prices, with practical in-house financing options designed to give people a real chance.
For Kip, this business is about more than selling cars. It's about using the blessings God has given him to bless others — helping people who may have been turned away elsewhere find a vehicle, regain confidence, and keep moving forward.
