Jan 22, 2009 - What Detroit is Doing Right? PlentyBy MIKE COX SPECIAL TO THE WASHINGTON POST America's Big Three automakers got pounded on Capitol Hill last month. Senators from both parties took turns ridiculing General Motors, Ford and Chrysler as out-of-touch fossils, churning out poor-quality products that virtually no one wants to buy. Wouldn't it be nice if America's automakers actually made cars that customers wanted? New hybrids, for example, and electric vehicles, mid-size cars that rank high in quality and more models that get 30 miles per gallon? Actually, that's exactly what Detroit is doing. Not in a couple of years, not next year, but now. I invite every member of the U.S. Senate to come visit the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Here is a sample of what they would see:
Here are a few other facts for the doubters:
Despite the public scolding recently heaped on the Big Three in Washington, Ford and GM still make the top-selling vehicles in the country, the Ford F-150 truck and the Chevy Silverado. Senators who think Detroit is still stuck in the dinosaur age may be shocked to learn that the Big Three are the leading purchasers of computer chips nationwide. In fact, GM, Ford and Chrysler are making cutting-edge vehicles featuring the latest in technology, engineering and fuel economy. Detroit's automakers spend $12 billion annually on research and development. No other industry can match that. More changes are needed, and the Big Three understand that their pace of change must be accelerated. But the last thing our economy needs right now is for 13 million jobs to be threatened. One out of every 10 jobs in America is related to the auto industry. That's why President Bush wisely agreed to release funds as a loan -- not a bailout -- to help the auto industry get through this Wall Street credit crunch. America's auto industry is building some of the safest, most fuel-efficient, technologically advanced vehicles in the world. That will be on display at this month's auto show in Detroit. As many have said: Facts are stubborn things. Unfortunately, the facts about America's auto manufacturers may have run up against something even more stubborn -- the U.S. Senate.

Oct 17, 2008 - The 2010 Camaro-- Video of the Production Car at the State Fair of TexasThe Owner of the dealership had the opportunity to shoot this video of the 2010 production Camaro at the State Fair of Texas this past weekend. This is the real deal folks!!!
Oct 9, 2008 - Malcolm With His Pants Down.....InterestingOur esteemed Service Manager, Malcom Simons is in the photo below with his pants down to his ankles. Why would he be photographed like this knowing that we would put him on the blog? Good question. I don't think he thought that far ahead. Malcolm raced all season at Redline Raceway this summer, and made it to the bracket finals at Pine Valley Raceway, where this illustrious photo was captured. He made it through the eliminations at Pine Valley to the semifinals.
Malcolm not only raced the Jupiter Chevy Camaro, but he had a foot race as well. At Pine Valley, along with Drag Racing, they also paticipated in "Olympic Activities." One of which is a foot race with your pants down to your ankles. Malcolm may be a fantastic drag racer, but he couldn't hold a candle to the lady to his left. She won the race. Malcolm, on top of it all, you have a photo on the Internet in your nice boxer briefs, but you also got beat by a girl. WAY TO GO!!-we still love you though. Keep up the good work!
Sep 3, 2008 - GM extends employee pricing offer, adds '09 models DETROIT, Sept 3 (Reuters) - General Motors Corp has extended its employee-level pricing discount program by one month through the end of September and increased the number of 2009 model year vehicles carrying the offer to boost sagging sales and clear out inventory. The program, launched in late August, applies to almost its entire line-up of 2008 model year vehicles and has been expanded to include most 2009 model year vehicles at dealerships, including all Silverado and Sierra pickups, GM spokesman John McDonald said on Wednesday. GM's better-selling cars, such as the Chevrolet Malibu, Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac Vibe are also included in the extended offer, the No.1 U.S. automaker said.
Sep 3, 2008 - Hey, It's so good it's a game!!!!Chevrolet Hands Over Customized HHR  ZÜRICH – August 29, 2008: Chevrolet has handed over the keys a very unique car to games developers, SimBim. They have now created the V-WTCC, which stands for Virtual World Touring Car Chamionship. A V-WTCC RaceRoom will be set up at six FIA WTCC events in Europe where the winners from the qualifying races can compete against one another for a ticket to the final in Monza. The Virtual World Championship Touring cars will be driven over several rounds and has currently reached the fifth round of the season. Until 5 September everyone can take part in online races at the Anderstorp circuit in Sweden and try to get to the top of the classifications. The world of car sport has never known such a ‘green’ concept with the same exhilaration and adrenalin rush and even the same noises and actions as the ‘real life’ WTCC races. Virtual racing is rapidly gaining popularity with car sport enthusiasts. Both youthful talent and experienced drivers play the range of games from SimBim in order to maintain their skills during the winter period or learn new circuits. The main prize is the unique Chevrolet HHR, in a special customised version that is also equipped with an environmental friendly LPG installation from the German Fahrmitgas. Besides the car itself, the winner will also receive a voucher for € 500 worth of LPG. Said Eric Nève, Chevrolet Europe Motorsport Manager: “The Chevrolet HHR and the V-WTCC form a perfect combination of the message that Chevrolet is conveying: distinctive cars for a reasonable price for youthful drivers who also pay serious attention to dealing responsibly with natural energy resources. This initiative is also very much in line with the recent FIA campaign “make cars green” the WTCC is adhering to. The V WTCC contest, therefore, enables us to target environmentally aware, energetic and sporting car enthusiasts.” As was the case at the WTCC races in Brno, the Chevrolet HHR will be used as a leading car in Oschersleben, this weekend.

Aug 23, 2008 - Give this pickup truck the gold
Aug 12, 2008 - GM offering more fuel-efficient pickup trucks,SUVs
8/
12/2008, 12:04 a.m. EDT, By DEE-ANN DURBIN, The Associated Press DETROIT (AP) — General Motors Corp. is releasing new, more fuel-efficient versions of its full-size pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles later this fall.
The XFE — or extra fuel economy — versions of the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks and Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon SUVs will get one mile per gallon more in both city and highway fuel economy than non-XFE versions. The boost will give them a total of 15 miles per gallon in the city and 21 on the highway.
On XFE models, GM improved the aerodynamics by extending the front lower air dam, lowering the suspension and revising the chassis tuning. The automaker also reduced the mass with aluminum parts, including an aluminum spare wheel and 17-inch aluminum wheels, gave the vehicles low rolling resistance tires and powered them with a 5.3-liter, ethanol-capable V-8 engine that has an aluminum cylinder block and heads. GM stressed that the vehicles still have the same towing capability.
The XFE pickups and SUVs will be available in the fourth quarter of this year. GM spokesman Brian Goebel wouldn't say how much more they will cost than non-XFE versions. GM began offering an XFE version of its Chevrolet Cobalt small car earlier this year. The automaker said it sped development of the XFE trucks and SUVs because of consumer demand for more fuel-efficient vehicles. GM's truck and SUV sales fell 23 percent in the first seven months of this year.
GM also offers hybrid versions of the Tahoe and Yukon and plans to bring out hybrid versions of the Silverado and Sierra in the first half of 2009. The company said last week that about 4 percent of its Tahoe and Yukon sales have been hybrids so far this year.
