What Makes Us a Different Kind of Dealer? A Message from the Owner of Tradition Chevrolet GMC

Thank you for your interest in Tradition Chevrolet GMC. My name is Dario Hodge and I am the Co-Owner and Operator of the Tradition Automotive Group's Newark location.

As the new owner, I look forward to treating you with the respect and professionalism that you deserve while providing you with the best buying and servicing experience possible. I also vow to support the wonderful Newark community and surrounding areas as they have been a big supporter of Tradition Chevrolet GMC.

I first began my career in the automotive industry as a high school and college student working summers at my families Murfreesboro, TN and Atlanta, GA locations. After graduating from the University of Alabama in 2002, I accepted a full time position at Heritage Volkswagen in Atlanta, GA. Over the course of the next 12 years, I held various positions such as Billing Clerk, Human Resources, Service Manager, Parts and Service Director, Comptroller, and finally, General Manager. Also during this time, I attended the NADA Dealer Academy and graduated in July of 2009. As of April of 2014, I stand before you as the proud Co-Owner and Operating Partner of Tradition Chevrolet GMC.
