Tim McGilvray
I was born and raised in Boston for most of my childhood, and as a teenager, I moved to Framingham, MA, and attended Framingham South High. Once I graduated, I then attended Northeastern University in Boston. I started selling cars in 1991 in Dedham, MA, as a co-op job, and I never left the industry.
I was fortunate enough to meet my wife while studying at Northeastern, and she's been stuck with me ever since. We have two great sons who have occupied a lot of our free time, but we’re lucky that they enjoy a lot of our favorite hobbies. As a family, we love all things ending in “ing'', which includes boating, fishing, skiing, etc. We’re pretty active and are fortunate that we get to do so many things together.
I was grateful that I had the opportunity to meet Dan and Chris Dagesse in February of 2010 and become a General Manager of their Toyota store in Norwood, MA. I held that position for about 5 years until I was given the opportunity to help with the new acquisitions that the company acquired, and later given the opportunity to become Vice President and COO of DCD Automotive.
In November of 2025, Dan and Chris gave me the dream I always wanted. To be a partner with them in two of their stores in RI.
This sounds very cliché, but as a big company as we are, we are really like family. We all spend a lot of time with each other, and I personally wouldn't change any of it.
