    My name is Gary Reighard; I am General Manager and Owner of North Star Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep and Yamaha. I grew up on a ranch in Utcia, MT and graduated from Hobson high school. I graduated as a Mechanical Engineer from MSU Bozeman in 1989 and worked for Boeing for six years. I came to Havre in 1995 to work for my father as Parts Manager at North Star Dodge. At that time it was just my wife Jennifer and myself. My two daughters, Lieza and Jill were born in 1996 and 2000. I have been General Manager since 1997. Our family enjoys competitive trap shooting (league shooting in Havre and Rudyard) and we are deeply involved in the Havre Lions Swim Team as both daughters swim like fishes. We also hunt, fish and water ski. Our family has a small collection of classic mopar muscle cars that we drive to car shows, parades and the ice cream parlor. As an owner I am focused on customer satisfaction and making sure everyone is treated fairly and with respect. I really want our customers to enjoy their experiences at North Star Dodge. I enjoy talking to our customers about everything from the weather, cows and crops to what the latest news is at the Chrysler factory.

    My name is Mike Winchell. I am a 2001 graduate of Havre high school who spent his extra time in the weight room, hunting, being a mechanic and socializing. I joined the team a North Star Dodge immediately following an early graduation in 2001. After attending college in 2002 at MSU Bozeman, I was re-introduced to the North Star team and later that year re-located to Dillon, MT where I opened and managed North Star Yamaha until 2008. Now that I am back in the home store my duties are focused in sales and finance. Outside the store you can count on me being outside either hunting, skiing, riding horses or lounging at the lake! You will seldom see me anywhere without my canine companions.
