About Dirty Khaki Enterprises LLC:
What even is a Dirty Khaki?
It’s a question we get all the time and that’s exactly the point! Dirty Khaki represents our willingness to handle both the white-collar and blue-collar sides of the automotive world. We’re just as comfortable behind a desk helping a customer with financing as we are under the hood turning wrenches.
I’m Chase Miller, founder of Dirty Khaki Enterprises LLC. I started this business in 2021, right after the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, with a simple idea: to bring honesty, reliability, and real service back to the car business. I saw too many people getting treated like numbers instead of neighbors, and I wanted to change that.
Before opening Dirty Khaki, I worked in management, sales, and clerical roles during the day, khaki slacks and all, and spent my evenings in the driveway working on cars for friends to make a little extra money. I’d come home, roll up my sleeves, and get to work without even changing clothes. Over time, my khakis got stained with grease and oil, and people started asking about it. I’d explain that I’d just finished working on a car, and more often than not, that conversation would turn into a new job or customer.
That’s where the name Dirty Khaki came from — it’s a conversation starter, a symbol of hard work, and a reminder that good business is built on communication and trust.
Not long after launching the business, I brought on my good friend Chris O’Gara, who quickly became my business partner. Chris brought experience, integrity, and a shared commitment to treating people right, whether they’re customers or employees.
Together, we are building Dirty Khaki on a foundation of transparency, respect, and reliability. We’re proud to serve our community not just as a dealership, but as a place people can depend on for honest advice, quality vehicles, and real human connection.
At Dirty Khaki, we don’t mind getting our hands, or our khakis, a little dirty.
