The media recently featured three very
favorable articles on the people who lead and staff the Washington area
automobile business.
• Jack
Pohanka of Pohanka Automotive Group was interviewed in “The Dealer
Speaks” feature in the March 20 issue of Automotive News. A Washington area
icon, Pohanka's chain of 14 stores, which was founded in 1919, is the oldest
dealership group in the Washington, DC, area that has remained under the
same family ownership. Pohanka was the first US auto dealer to sell both
“foreign” and domestic vehicles and the guy who invented the term “megadealer.”
His distinguished resume also includes founder and chairman of the Capital
Automotive REIT, founder of the National Institute of Automotive Service
Excellence (ASE), former NADA chairman (1976), after he chaired WANADA
(1968). It is an interview not to be missed.
