The Pohanka Automotive Group is one of the oldest automobile dealerships in the nation. Frank S. Pohanka was born in the Bronx in New York City. He ran away from home in his eighth-grade year and found a job on a horse farm on Long Island. It wasn't long before this stable boy became a successful jockey, racing horses throughout North America. Eventually, he could not 'keep weight' and then was faced with what to do with the rest of his life. In 1919 Frank Pohanka opened his first dealership at Ward Place, in N.W. Washington DC, where he sold and serviced Chevrolets. He quickly established a reputation as a master mechanic and service consultant, and for thirty years called his company" Pohanka Service" to emphasize that fact.
