  Mr. Paul Miller has enjoyed a fascination for cars since early childhood.

Mr. Miller opened the dealership in 1953, and in October 2003, celebrated 50 years of dedicated service. Mr. Miller�s commitment of service extends beyond his company to the community. He has been involved many years with the local Child Development Center and Alzheimer�s Association. Mr. Miller believes that giving to the community that has so richly blessed him is an honor. The Paul Miller Ford dealership graciously provided the automotive and auto body technology programs of Central Kentucky Technical College with new automotive parts valued at more than $30,000.
