Welcome to The Road to 100, where we strip away the polished statistics and corporate scripts to bring you the raw, unfiltered story of the car business. This isn’t theory—it’s the real grind, the untold story of what it takes every single day to buy, sell, operate, and grow in one of the toughest industries out there. From the chaos of daily dealership operations to the highs and lows of negotiations, from the grind of the car lot to the boardroom decisions that shape the future—we’re sharing it all. No edits. No filters. No sugarcoating. This is also the story of rejection—what it’s like to be told “no” over and over, and still find a way to keep pushing forward. It’s about overcoming setbacks, breaking through roadblocks, and building something bigger than yourself: a company fueled by culture, employee growth, and the belief that when you take care of your people, success follows. Come along with us on the journey to build 100 dealerships. This is the behind-the-scenes look at the real car life—the people, the deals, the setbacks, the victories, and the relentless drive it takes to make it happen. If you’ve ever wanted to know what the car business is really like, buckle up. This is The Road to 100.

Our guests not only tell their own stories, but how working at GRA past, present and future has changed their lives!
