NCADA SUPPORTS NORTH CAROLINA’S TIME DEALER OF THE YEAR NOMINEE AT NADA SHOW NCADA was proud to attend the NADA Show in Las Vegas to support Alycia Kellum, who was recognized as North Carolina’s TIME Dealer of the Year nominee by TIME and Ally. The NADA Show once again brought together thousands of dealers, industry leaders and partners from across the country for several days of education, networking and insight into the future of automotive retail. From standing-room-only workshops to a packed expo floor featuring the latest products and technology, the energy throughout the convention center reflected an industry that continues to evolve and innovate. Amid that national spotlight, it was especially meaningful to see a North Carolina dealer recognized on stage. Alycia was one of just 47 dealers nationwide to receive the prestigious honor, which recognizes exceptional performance, leadership and community commitment. We congratulate Alycia on this well-deserved honor and are proud to have been there to cheer her on in Las Vegas. Moments like these showcase the strength and leadership of North Carolina’s franchised dealers. Association Happenings NCADA PRESIDENT JOHN POLICASTRO HONORED AS NATIONAL OUTSTANDING ATAE OF THE YEAR During the recent NADA Show and the meeting of the Automotive Trade Association Executives (state dealer association CEOs) in Las Vegas, NCADA President John Policastro was honored by the NADA PAC as the 2025 Outstanding ATAE of the Year. This annual award recognizes exceptional fundraising results in support of the NADA PAC. In 2025, NCADA and North Carolina’s franchised dealers once again delivered an outstanding showing, achieving 130% of NADA’s fundraising goal for North Carolina. “It is a tremendous honor to receive this award and to have the important support of our state’s dealers recognized, both through their financial contributions and their grassroots advocacy on behalf of our federal legislative efforts,” said Policastro. “I am grateful to our NCADA Chairman Rob King, NADA Director Greg York, and our North Carolina NADA PAC Chairman John Hiester for their leadership and support in making our 2025 efforts so successful.” NCADA thanks all of our dealer members who supported the NADA PAC in 2025, and we encourage your continued support. As NADA’s political action committee, NADA PAC represents the interests of all franchised dealers of new cars and trucks by supporting pro-dealer congressional candidates of all political affiliations.
