National Vehicle Leasing Association names Tarry Shebesta, of Automobile Consumer Services, Inc., Third Vice-President

Cincinnati, OH - May 19, 2004. Tarry Shebesta, president of Automobile Consumer Services, Inc. (ACS), has been named Third Vice-President for the National Vehicle Leasing Association (NVLA). He will continue to oversee the Electronic Communications Portfolio (committee). The NVLA provides educational opportunities, promotes responsible legislation and communicates with members regarding developments and trends in vehicle leasing.

Last year the committee created LeaseWire, a new electronic email publication that keeps members informed of critical information needed to successfully run their businesses. This year the committee will focus on redesigning the NVLA.org website and launch another electronic publication called LegislativeWire.

Shebesta has numerous years of experience in the vehicle leasing industry, particularly in the fast changing technology area. He is currently involved in managing his firm's successful websites LeaseCompare.com and FrontRowCars.com. He also serves as a leader in other industry organizations.

"Legislation and funding sources are causing uncertainty in the vehicle leasing industry. I am honored to be part of the NVLA leadership that will educate and guide members through these changing circumstances," says Shebesta. "Cooperation and sharing knowledge certainly benefits us all."
