"I had the vehicle all picked out. All the negotiations were done over the internet and the deal was set in place before I even came into the dealership. It was just a matter of doing the paperwork. Would I shop at John L Sullivan Chevrolet again? You bet." - Pam R

"I recently purchased a 2013 Chevy Equinox from John L. Sullivan. I didn't feel hassled or misled at any time.I feel that I got an excellent price as well.John Miller was my salesman. I bought the LS model and added after market leather seats. The seats are awesome and they provided me with a free rental while they were being installed. I returned to have the drivers seat adjusted and Jeri Miller made it so easy and made sure that I was satisfied. In shopping for a vehicle, I was told by another dealer that once I was close in price, I needed to decide based on service. I made the right choice!!" - Robert M

"My experience with John Sullivan was a very smooth and quick process. I had recently been through Bankruptcy and thought i was unable to get a new car, but contacted John L Sullivan and they made me feel free from strees if anyone is looking for a new car and you live in Sacramento the only place to go is John L. Sullivan I will refer all my friends and family always. Thank you John l. Sullivan." - Alonda

As it continues to bring global music and pop culture trends to the U.S., MTV Iggy today introduced "Cover the World," a partnership with Chevrolet through which four global musical artists will each cover an iconic song chosen by fans online at www.covertheworld.com.  The "Cover the World" artists, which include South Korea's WonderGirls, Jamaica's Gyptian, Australia's Angus Stone, and America's All Time Low, will each bring their own regional flavor to the recording to celebrate the arrival of the 2013 Chevrolet Spark in the United States and Canada.  MTV Iggy and Chevrolet will announce the song selected by fans on Monday, September 17^th.

Jamaica's own Gyptian is breaking into the US music scene with his hit single and album "Hold Yuh" and he will bring his reggae roots to 'Cover the World'.  Australian singer and songwriter Angus Stone will bring a rock twist to the selected song similar to the sound crafted on his new solo album "Broken Brights".

They will create a pop punk version of the fan selected tune.

The 2012 Camaro Coupe Becomes the First Vehicle of Any Class to Earn a Perfect NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating

The 2012 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe is the first vehicle to receive the highest possible five-star score in every individual segment of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s New Car Assessment Program since the federal testing procedures were revised for 2011.

Camaro has a reputation for making hearts race and palms sweat. It’s known for attitude and power. It’s a car known for fulfilling the wildest fantasies of sports car aficionados far and wide.

So when the Camaro Coupe became not only the first sports car, but the first overall vehicle of any class to nab a perfect five-star score in every safety rating segment of the National Highway Traffic Administration’s all-new car assessment, Chevy was more than thrilled to add top-notch safety to the sports car’s inimitable reputation.

“Camaro has always been about performance and that includes safety performance,” said Al Oppenheiser, Camaro chief engineer. “We always strive for five-star ratings and the fact that we achieved them under more rigorous requirements is a great accomplishment.”

The NHTSA recently raised the bar by revising their testing procedures for 2011. The six categories that Camaro performed exceptionally in include frontal barrier crash testing for the driver and passenger, side crash ratings for the driver and passenger, a rollover rating, and the vehicle’s overall rating. The stricter NHTSA testing regulations have been revamped to focus on crash avoidance technologies and safety feature performance.

To have such a power-driven sports car come out on top for excellence in safety brings even more to the thrill ride for current and future Camaro owners. So the next time you decide to take Camaro out for a spin, feel free to own your street while having the feeling of safety on your side.

Chevrolet Camaro SS Pace Car goes pink to fight breast cancer

Over the holiday weekend, Chevrolet Racing spent its time supporting the American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer program at the Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Last year, the automaker supported the American Cancer Society for its 100th birthday, and after an overwhelming response from customers, employees and dealers, they decided to keep it going again this year.

Thirty breast cancer survivors were invited to Atlanta Motor Speedway to join in the Chevrolet Camaro SS pace  car rides with Nascar drivers Jamie McMurray, Dancia Patrick and Ron Hornaday Jr., whom were also giving out autographs.

Every lap run during the Nascar Sprint Cup Series AdvoCar500 resulted in a $200 donation as well, which was paced by an SS coated in pink paint.

 

Next month Chevrolet will be announcing more events to come for October, which is Brest Cancer Awareness Month, to support the cause.

“Last year, contributions of more than $900,000 supported the American Cancer Society’s mission to save lives by helping people stay well and get well, by finding cures and by fighting back against this disease,” said Roshini George, national vice president of health promotions for the American Cancer Society. “As we approach National Breast Cancer Awareness month in October, we want thank the Chevrolet family for its support and remind everyone to take the steps that make a difference in our fight against breast cancer.”

Chevrolet ends Avalanche production with a special Black Diamond edition

To mark the last model run of its unique one-of-kind multi-purpose purpose vehicle, Chevrolet is commemorating the vehicle with the 2013 Black Diamond Avalanche. This special edition adds new standard features to the LS such as power-adjustable pedals, remote vehicle starter system, foglamps and rear parking assist. Both LS and LT come with new standard features such as matching body-color exterior components and a rear vision camera system. All of the above listed features remain standard on LTZ. And the best news of all - the Black Edition offers a lower pricepoint, where the base has been trimmed by $2,500, translating to a base MSRP of $35,980 (which excludes a $995 destination fee.)

Originally presented in concept form at the 2000 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, the Avalanche and its badged engineered clone, the Cadillac Escalade EXT, were created off the Suburban GMT800 platform. The Avalanche proved to be so unique that it was named Motor Trend Magazine’s Truck of the Year for 2002.

Among its unusual features includes a ‘midgate’ which allows an expanded cargo area by folding down the rear seats and mid-gate and removing a rear glass panel, opening the cab to the elements. In addition to creating thermoclines in the cab as air-conditioning and heating fought the great outdoors, early midgate systems had problems with leaks, making the Avalanche and Escalade easily accessable to thieves.

Another significant problem was the unsightly bleaching of the applied body cladding. Shortly after its debut, cosmetic problems with the body cladding started to appear. Exposure to heat and sunlight over time created a chalky faded appearance. It was especially noticeable on the cargo bed panels and sail-panel windows. Complaints resulted in GM trying a product called ArmorDillo, which temporarily restored the cladding for a period of about 6 months. Realizing this was not a permanent solution, GM, with Gatorback Coatings, jointly developed a coating that could be applied to the cladding to restore it to a like-new shine. This product was designed to etch into the plastic and bond a new layer of tinted acrylic over the faded plastic. Customers under factory warranty could have the cladding restored under GM TSB:04-08-111-001C. With all the technological issues, plus buyer’s negative reaction to the cladding, GM offered a delete option which first appeared on the 2003 Avalanche. For the 2007 update the cladding was discontinued altogether.

The Chevrolet Avalanche was one of the earliest forays into re-inventing the traditional pickup truck. While maintaining a traditional truck image it capabilities was more versatile for the person buying it for personal use more than work – a lifestyle truck more than a work truck. However more simplistic and variations followed the Avalanche’s lead, such as the 2001 Ford F-150 SuperCrew, followed by the 2002 Dodge Ram Quad Cab and others.

The Avalanche was intended to help General Motors end Ford’s long reign as the best selling pickup. While aggregate sales of the Avalanche, Escalade, Silverado and GMC Sierra often exceeded sales of the F-150, the Avalanche itself was usually more successful in cannibalizing Silverado sales than generating conquests from Ford and Dodge.

Through March 2012 Chevrolet has sold more than 589,719 Avalanches. Sales peaked at 93,482 in 2003 then gradually decline from there. Despite a 2007 redesign sales plummeted by 37.0 percent in 2008, followed by a complete off the cliff nosedive in 2009, with sales totaling 16,432. However in its defense sales of all trucks and SUVs were in the toilet during this time due to the start of the economical collapse with over four buck a gallon gasoline.
