The automotive industry is changing fast—EV mandates, direct-to-consumer threats, shifting manufacturer relationships, and evolving government policies. Are dealers being heard? In this episode, I sit down with Mike Stanton, President of the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA), to talk about how NADA is fighting for dealers, ensuring their voices are represented in Washington, and pushing back against policies that could hurt their businesses. We cover: ✅ The FTC victory and why NADA is back on offense ✅ The real story behind EV sales—$7 billion in unsold inventory sitting on dealer lots ✅ Why direct-to-consumer models are still a concern & how NADA is fighting back ✅ How dealers can build relationships with local lawmakers to shape policy ✅ What NADA is doing to strengthen manufacturer-dealer relationships ✅ How NADA's dealer education programs are evolving to meet today's challenges Mike also shares insights from NADA's exclusive dealer-manufacturer meetings, how policies are changing from dealer input. Dealers—this is your industry, your fight, and your future. Listen in and learn how you can get involved and make an impact! Dealer Talk with Jen Suzuki Podcast |
