Chevy offers seven models with an EPA estimated 30 MPG highway or better. Not only that, Chevy brings you the most dependable, longest-lasting,safest trucks on the road, that simply have the competition saying, “what the truck.”
What matters most though, is your family’s safety. Whether it’s a short trip to the grocery store or a cross-country road trip,Chevrolet is committed to helping keep your investment safe, and most importantly, you and your family’s safety. From the start of your journey to your destination.Chevy boasts a long list of safety achievements, but perhaps the most important have been in the area of crash test ratings. In fact, for 2008, Chevrolet offers 12 models with a five-star frontal crash safety rating, more vehicles than Toyota or Dodge.
That’s why most Chevy vehicles built today come with comprehensive safety and security features to help protect you before, during and, thanks to available OnStar, after a collision. Chevrolet offers technologies to provide you with information and safety features specifically designed to help you avoid a crash. Some of the safety features designed to help protect occupants in the event of a crash include safety cage and crush zones, safety belts, air bags and the LATCH system for child safety seats, BUT WAIT there’s more.
1.Standard on every Chevy vehicle are Daytime Running Lamps, they are reduced-intensity lights on the front of vehicles that automatically illuminate when a vehicle is started. They make the vehicle easier to see, by other drivers and pedestrians, in a variety of daytime conditions including fog, rain, dusk, and bright sunlight.The most important advantage of these lights is the potential for reducing crashes and injuries, and saving lives.
2.ABS- helps you maintain steering control by reducing wheel lockup during hard braking on most slippery surfaces.
3.The StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System- helps you stay the course by detecting the difference between the steering wheel angle and the direction the vehicle is actually turning. StabiliTrak “reads” the steering wheel position, the amount of sideways force in play, the speed of the vehicle and the vehicle’s response to steering wheel input. It then uses the brakes and, if necessary, adjusts engine torque to help you keep your vehicle on track.The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety study estimated that electronic stability control systems could avoid as many as 10,000 fatal crashes in the U.S. annually if the technology were used on every vehicle.
4. OnStar- with OnStar, you’re not alone. If you’re ever in a crash, at the touch of a button, an OnStar Advisor can contact emergency help for you. If the air bags deploy, OnStar can automatically call you. It knows your exact location and can contact the nearest fire, police and EMS personnel. In the event you’re in a crash, OnStar Advisors are there. At the touch of a button, an OnStar Advisor is available to contact emergency help for you. In a crash, when the air bags deploy, OnStar can automatically send a call for help with the exact location of our vehicle to the OnStar Center, where trained Advisors will immediately contact emergency services.
All that technology bundled up in the most dependable, longest lasting, safest, vehicles on the road.
So when asked again, “why buy a Chevy”, I simply think to myself, why would I buy anything else, whoever said you cant buy happiness, never bought a Chevrolet.
