Andy O'Harrow

We have a new General Manager in the house and we couldn’t be more excited to introduce him to you! Andy O’Harrow has been with Milton Ruben Toyota since 2009 and he has been nothing short of an excellent asset from his first day. 

Andy started at Milton Ruben Toyota in 2009 when Toyota of Augusta closed and became part of the Milton Ruben dealership. He has been in the auto industry since 2003, he started as a Sales Consultant at a dealership in Milwaukee.

Andy has worked in every sales position that a car dealership offers, from Finance Manager, to Sales Consultant he's excelled at every position and has really worked his way up to this point in his career. His career at Milton Ruben Toyota started out as a Sales Consultant and from there he moved to finance and eventually to the desk as the General Sales Manager, which has brought him to the position of General Manager.

When asked what he loves about working in the car business Andy replied, “The car business has always been good to me. It is one of the most rewarding industries if you have a winners mentality. I love the challenge of finding ways to help people out of situations. Every day there is someone that comes in with expectations that we cannot help them, whether it be for credit, negative equity, or budget constraints. My experience in finance has taught me to have an ‘outside of the box’ way of thinking. The best part is the constant challenge of meeting goals put in front of me, meeting/exceeding them, and still feeling good about what I do when I go home at night, because this is a service related industry. We have great, loyal customers... being a part of that is a cherry on top!”

When asked what he loves about Milton Ruben Toyota, “We have adopted a culture that puts the customer first, and we have a culture that no matter what, wants to meet and exceed every objective that the manufacturer puts in front of us. That culture bleeds into every position from top to bottom within our organization.”

Outside of work, Andy has 2 children, Jason, 13, and Jordan, 9 and his wife, Christina. Andy contributes his success to the support of his family. “She pushes me every day to be the best version of me, and has always motivated me to live with compassion and empathy”, he said about his wife. 

Andy grew up in a large, blended family and says that family is a big part of what he is about. He enjoys spending time with his family as often as he can and does so by being a big part of his son, Jordan’s, journey in Boy Scouts. He loves having family around and for that reason, treats his staff like family as well. 

Andy is hoping to break goals and set new ones in his new role as General Manager. He plans to continue the success that Milton Ruben Toyota has grown accustomed to in the last several years and we know he will be nothing short of successful. 

If you have worked with Andy in the past, stop in and congratulate him! If you haven’t had the pleasure of meeting Andy yet, you’re miss out, so stop in and say “hello!”; he’s looking forward to meeting you!
