NADA Director’s Message: Challenges and Opportunities

It is a privilege to represent Kentucky’s dealers at NADA, and I’m honored to be part of this incredible community.

Dear Kentucky Dealers,

I hope 2025 is off to a strong and successful start for you. With each passing year, our industry continues to evolve, bringing new challenges — but also incredible opportunities.

Looking back at the obstacles we’ve overcome and the ones we continue to navigate, one thing remains clear: Kentucky’s dealers are resilient, adaptable and thriving. Our businesses continue to grow, and our ability to pivot in a shifting market has been nothing short of remarkable.

As we tackle what’s ahead, it’s more important than ever to maintain strong relationships with our state legislators. Ensuring that decision-makers understand the needs of our dealerships is key to protecting our franchise rights and strengthening our industry for the long term.

Both NADA and KADA continue to play a critical role in supporting our success. When we stand together, we amplify our collective voice, ensuring that our perspectives shape the policies and regulations that impact our businesses. With Mike Stanton’s leadership at NADA and Jason Wilson’s leadership at KADA, you can rest assured that our interests are being well-represented at both the national and state levels.

Looking ahead, change and innovation will continue to accelerate. From evolving consumer behaviors to emerging technologies, staying informed and engaged will be essential. The stronger our presence with our OEMs, our teams and our policymakers, the better positioned we will be to navigate the road ahead.

This year’s NADA Show in New Orleans may have had a few surprises, but it was still a great success and a testament to the adaptability of our industry. I’m already looking forward to next year’s event in Las Vegas, Feb. 3-6, 2026 — a perfect opportunity to connect, learn and grow together.

As always, if I can be of any help to you, please don’t hesitate to reach out. It is a privilege to represent Kentucky’s dealers at NADA, and I’m honored to be part of this incredible community.
