Employee Profile – Ken "Jeepman" Hill

January 28, 2010 By Brad Mackey

Ken Hill

What is your position here at McGrath Auto?
Sales Extraordinaire!

How long have you been with McGrath Auto?
215 months!

Do you have a spouse or kids?  Tell us a little about them.
Yes, I have both. To tell you a little, they’re great!

What is the last book that you read or movie you have seen?
The last book I read was “I Am Legend”.  How cool would it have been if the last movie I saw was “I Am Legend” too… but it was actually “Deja Vu” with Denzel Washington.

Pistons Public House

What is your favorite restaurant or hangout spot in the Cedar Rapids area?
My favorite restaurant was Pistons Public House until they went out of business, I guess I was the only one to think so.  My favorite hangout spot is my secret place, sorry!

What is your most memorable experience at McGrath Auto?
Too many to remember.  I’ve had a chance to work with a lot of great people over the years with McGrath Auto and I would tell you their names if I could remember 🙂

What was the first vehicle that you ever owned?
This is where you would expect me to say a Jeep, but it was a 1980 Ford Fiesta.  Wait, I did have a Power Wheels Jeep as a kid… Ah-Haaa!

What was your job before starting here at McGrath Auto?
I was a commercial photographer for several years and took pictures out of airplanes.

What was most used when you started at McGrath Auto, 8-track, album, cassette, DC, iPod, or they didn’t even have music yet?
If you want to know how old I am, just ask!

Groundhog Day

Do you have any pets?
Of course.

What is your favorite season/holiday? Why?
I really like Groundhog Day. I think because those Groundhogs are so funny when they freak out at their shadow.  Also, I liked the Bill Murray movie, “Groundhog Day”.

What vehicle do you personally drive?
Ummm… hello???  Jeepman?  Take a wild guess!

Any upcoming vacations?  Your last vacation?
I think my next vacation will be to Sea World later this year, and I hope it’s not my last vacation, but you never know so live each day as it was your last!
