🎉 17 Years of Tint, Tools & Garvin Grit 🎉
On April 15, 2008, 21-year-old Adam made the leap, ditching the safety net and turning a high school marketing project into a full-time hustle. No boss, no backup plan. Just tint, glass, tools, and the kind of stubborn confidence only a 21-year-old with a heat gun and zero chill could pull off.
This story runs deeper than one kid and a dream. The Garvin name has been part of Yamhill County’s automotive DNA since 1952, when Grandpa Bruce was out there sealing deals and selling cars with a handshake, a smile, quick-witted humor, and probably a 🥃.
From putting people into cars to now keeping them looking dialed in & protected, we’ve come full circle.
17 years later, we’re still at it.
Still building. Still obsessed with quality and relationships. Still doing that squint thing when the film lines up just right.
And yeah… maybe cooking up something behind the scenes.
To every customer, every referral, every early believer, thank you!
And to all the team members and great staff we’ve had over the years: thank you for being part of this ride. Watching so many of you grow, chase your own dreams, and succeed on your own paths has been one of the best parts of it all. Your energy, hustle, and heart helped shape what GarvinAuto is today.
From a classroom dream to a community staple, it’s been a wild, window-tinted & glossed up ride.
We’re just getting warmed up. What’s coming next has been over a decade in the making and it’s going to redefine everything. Big shift. Bigger impact. You’ll see. Team GarvinAuto 🚀
