You're in for a great ride (excuse the car metaphor)

We're not your standard dealership or group of dealerships and we're pretty darn proud of that. We're out to do things differently. We want to consistently change, grow, and progress.

For that reason, our employees are proud of where they work. Our history is rich in the tradition of doing things differently. It began with Ken Garff himself. It continued through all of those who followed Ken and is alive and thriving today.

If you are having any issues with applying please reach out to our recruiting team at recruiterhelp@kengarff.com . Include in the email what state you are applying in. Thank you for your patience!
