Executive Summary
Rush Enterprises announced the appointment of Jody Pollard as Chief Operating Officer (COO), replacing Jason Wilder who departed the company.

Pollard, a long-time executive with extensive operational and sales experience at Rush, will report directly to CEO Rusty Rush.
Actionable Insight

Key Facts

- Jody Pollard, a 27-year veteran of the company, has been appointed as the new COO.
