Founded by Richard Mullen Sr., this award-winning dealership is one of Chrysler’s shining “pentastars,” boasting “5-Star” status for both sales and service excellence, and consistently ranks among the top dealerships in the country, according to Chrysler’s Customer Satisfaction Index.

Now celebrating its 83rd year, Mullen Motors is operated today by a third generation of Mullens, brothers Rich and Bill. It is the only Chrysler dealership in the area to offer all four Chrysler lines including Jeep, Chrysler, Ram and Dodge vehicles.

“Right now we’re really excited about the new lineup that’s going to be rolling out over the next year or so,” said Rich Mullen. “The 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee is amazing, and they’re going to be using that same approach with every vehicle, so it puts us in a great position to finally have something affordable that actually competes with higher-end brands.”

Active supporters of both civic and charity events in our local community, the Mullen brothers attribute their success to old-fashioned hometown service and a great team of professionals and products. “Our customers are everything, so we take care of them,” said Bill Mullen.
