Our story began humbly in 1946, with the opening of a Chrysler-Plymouth-Dodge store across from Lithia Springs Park in Ashland, Oregon. Fifty years later, in 1996, after opening a few additional stores and training a talented team of leaders, our CEO decided the best way to give new opportunities to this incredible team was to join the public stock exchange. That’s when our mission of “Growth Powered by People” took off.
