| That
thought was on the minds of TireVan’s founders,
Pat Garvey and David Leslie, as they were buying
tires (Pat in Los Angeles, Dave in Washington, DC).
Both were high tech executives/entrepreneurs, internet
bubble survivors, with a belief in the unrealized
power of technology. Both spent their careers applying
technology and creativity to generate products and
services designed to satisfy the customer. And both
were killing time drinking bad coffee and reading
2-year-old magazines while their tires were being
installed. They wondered, does it have to be this
much of a hassle? |

When Pat and Dave compared notes, an idea was
born.
Applying years of high tech experience combined
with a passion and knowledge of performance cars,
Pat and Dave realized that the time has come for
a change in the tire business, based on these
simple facts:
The tire buying process
works better online, providing an infinitely greater
selection, more information, a no-pressure sales
environment, and best of all, it saves time.
Installation can be done
at the customer's doorstep. Top of the line tire
changing and balancing equipment has proven adaptable
for mobile use.
A mobile business produces
minimal overhead. This enables a business to provide
a great value, as well as a great service, to
customers.
The old way to buy tires is outmoded in today’s
environment. With the tire store out of the equation,
the customer wins. And that is the simple idea
upon which TireVan was founded, and is reflected
in our business, our mission, and our tag line:
TireVan - The Better Way to Get New Tires.
