Star Trac announced that it has formed its first ever Dealer Advisory Council in an effort to build communication between the company and its U.S. commercial dealers.

“We are fortunate to have this highly respected group to lend us their opinions to drive our growing dealer business,” said Dawson. “The council will provide a strong voice for the Star Trac dealer network.”
