IT’S US
Let us take a moment to remember the lives lost in the plane crash that occurred in D.C. last week.
Among the many who have reached out and made efforts to help the families affected by this tragedy was our very own Kody Holdings. With a generous ‘top donation’ of $10,000, our MD dealers are really showing they care.

Congratulations, David Wilson, on being featured in the Cape Gazette and sharing some very inspiring testimonials that we can all learn from.
If you have a story like David, let us know. We would love to hear about your journey and share it with the community.
IT’S STILL U
After all, there is no RADD without U… wait…
Anyway, take a look at U guys!

IT’S BAD FOR U
We Still Have Work To Do
We have sent 40,000 letters since the start of this campaign, but the Trade-In Difference Repeal is still on the table. As we move further into this year’s General Assembly it is more important now than ever before that we continue to voice our opposition.
We can win this fight!
