Management staff and employees. He has a well-rounded (lots of pun intended) sense of

Chris started his career in the auto industry with Tilbury Chrysler in
January of 1996 (when he had black hair) and he has never looked back. He has held various roles
with the company, starting on
the sales floor, lease renewal manager, used car manager and he now
leads our new car department, and his hair has since gone whiter than snow . We are not sure of the link between sales and service and gray hair or no hair, hopefully the scientist will come up with a cure (Chris will take the sales side effect over the service alternative any day). So if you have any questions regarding
leasing, your lease renewal or purchasing a new car, he can help. Chris was recently married to rejoices of "iaft".When
he has spare time (which is rarely, now that he has a "honey do" list) , he enjoys hockey and golf and is an avid boater.
Chris is also proud to announce the safe arrival of a not so little VNECK, NOAH HUDSON J. VANNECK, a healthy8 lb 15.5 oz baby boy , born on February 18th, 2010. Chris was very happy that Noah was not born Miinched or Burrelled at birth!!

Andrew was originally born in England, mixed in with some Australian ancestry, if he were a pie, I guess that would make him KIWI LIMEY. He has been in the auto industry since 1981, and looks forward representing Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep with the same integrity and passion that has made him successful in the import market. In his spare time he enjoys fishing, boating, golf and cooking (but not all at once). If you want a salesperson who is a little different for all the right reasons, then ask for Andrew, the LIMESTONE COWBOY.
Dennis has just recently joined the Tilbury Chrysler sales team after many many successful years in the auto industry at varying jobs. Dennis started in the body shop business as a master in the paint shop. Some people think that he may have painted one too many cars without a mask, we are still not sure. He can paint anything, cars, trucks, goalie masks, heck you should see his toe nails when he has his shoes off. Dennis is a car nut, new, used, classic or modern, and I mean that as a compliment. You will be hard pressed to find a salesperson who loves cars and knows as much about them as Dennis does. Dennis also loves his hairdresser, thank God she has other customers or she would starve.
