Derrick Meyer

Ross Todd
General Sales Manager
I am a life-long resident of the Rockford/Plainfield area. I met my wife, Tracy, who is also a life-long resident of Rockford, and we stayed here to raise our family which includes our three middle/high-school aged kids and our dog, Luca. I started work in the car business in high school--over twenty-five years ago-as a detailer. I worked as a sales associate and moved into management with a couple automotive groups and am excited to be part of the Graff CDJR team in my hometown. When I am not at work, you can find me attending many of the athletic activities my kids love and camping with my family. I also enjoy mountain biking, both recreationally and competitively, and coach the West Michigan Coyotes, a K-12 junior racing team of student-athletes that gets more than 150 kids out on the trails each year.

I grew up in the Detroit area but moved to Traverse City and then settled in Rockford in 2019. My family is most important to me. I enjoy spending time with my adult children--Cody, Taylor, and Brittany--and my grandchildren. I have been in the car business over 35 years. That's a lifetime. Every day in the service department gives me something new: new challenges and new people. I love being of service to others whether that be helping customers that come to the service department or training up a young person in the areas of auto mechanics and helping them realize their dreams.
