Paul moved to Norwalk almost 10 years ago - making this store his second Jeep store in CT. In the car business from a young age, he already had over 20 years of automotive experience. In October of 2012 he changed the name from Georgetown Chrysler Jeep Dodge to Garavel Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram. Diversified interests have always been his strength. While a student in college he was a member of the Connecticut General Assembly representing Danbury for ten years. Three years after his retirement from politics he purchased Georgetown Jeep in Wilton, CT, which grew to be Connecticut's largest Jeep dealer. Additionally he opened a tiny Subaru store a few miles south of Georgetown Jeep, which eventually became our sister store, Garavel Subaru, also in Norwalk, CT. He is active in the community, supports breast cancer research and fighting poverty. His passions in life include his work, ice cream, boating and his family. He is an avid Yankee fan, Giants fan and a Beatlemaniac.

Great experience. I shutter when I am car shopping. This was different. I came in, explained what I was looking for and 2 hours later I owned a Jeep. I shutter when I am car shopping. This was different. I came in, explained what I was looking for and 2 hours later I owned a Jeep. More

Kyle our sales p Garavel Jeep was excellent to work with. We bought 2 Jeeps in the last week. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. Kyle our sales person answered all of our questions and explained the differences between the Jeep larado and the Jeep Grand Cherokee. He returned all of our calls in a timely manner. Jessica was excellent in expediting the finance process and explaining all the paperwork in a timely fashion. The car was ready when I arrived to pick it up . It had a full tank of gas and looked beautiful. Kyle quickly put the plates on the car and even programmed my phone. The whole experience from the beginning to the end was excellent. I would highly recommend Garavel Jeep. More
