CADA Open Road
The year of Hindsight is beginning to disappear in the rear-view mirror as it yields to a year of possibilities in every direction you turn.
Here at CADA, our office will be closed Friday, January 1, 2021, so our staff can usher in the new year, in our own individual ways.
We wish you a very safe and Happy 2021!

Celebrating the season
Dealers help those in community by donating vehicles
Phil Long Ford partners with nonprofit to give SUV to working single mom
Hands of The Carpenter (Hands) and Phil Long Ford of Denver are working together to solve a vehicle crisis issue for a Jefferson County woman in need.
Soraya Rivera, a working single mother of two children ages five and ten years old, will receive a 2008 Ford Edge from Hands tomorrow, December 23 at 2:30 pm at Phil Long Ford of Denver’s dealership location.
Wanting to give the vehicle to Rivera before Christmas, the partners worked together to offer her a car that would fit her needs and family.
Mountain States Toyota gives vehicle to student in need
Denver City Councilman Chris Herndon (Stapleton, DIA) mentors late-age teenagers in job preparation and life skills. One of his mentees, an 18-year-old woman had a job and needed a vehicle to get there. Thing is, she had terrible credit.
Herndon turned to Josh Hanfling, with Sewald Hanfling Public Affairs with the dilemma. Hanfling, who lobbies on behalf of CADA's members in Denver, turned to Mountain States Toyota's Tim Van Binsbergen for help.
Van Binsbergen gave her a late-model vehicle, then paid the sales tax and license fee for her, so she could drive the car. Hanfling and Herndon then paid the insurance on her car, making for her a Christmas she could only have imagined.
