Chevrolet’s Camaro has had boys and men dreaming since 1966. I’d be politically inncorrect if I didn’t say it had the ladies dazzled just the same. As a matter of fact, here at First State Chevy we sell just as many to women as we do teenagers and middle-aged men. Truth is, the Camaro has a little something for everyone.

Now you can purchase a vehicle at the same preferred price as many other discount programs. It doesn’t stop there though. You can also us the current incentives with it. Now is a great time to purchase a new 2012 Chevy Camaro, Equinox or Cruze which rarely have any incentives. On top of that Chevy is offering a 60-day “Love it or Return it” guarantee. If you don’t love the vehicle after 30 days, you have 30 more days to return it at no charge.

First State Chevrolet

Here at First State Chevrolet we sell products that we truly believe in and use ourselves. Today I want to talk a little bit about Glasscoat made by Simoniz USA. When you purchase a new car it is usually the 2nd largest investment you’ll ever make aside from the purchase of your home. It only makes sense to protect that investment with a quality product like Simoniz.  When you purchase a new vehicle and leave the dealership, the only thing on that vehicle that is not under warranty is your paint. Yes defects are covered, but anything from hard water, bird droppings, and tree sap can leave you with a blemished vehicle and large bill to cover. With Simoniz Glasscoat applied to that car, it covers the outside with a glass type resin protecting your paint from the elements. Wouldn’t it be nice to never have to wax your car again? With Glasscoat applied, all you have to do is wash and shammy it off. If any blemish were to appear from acid rain, tree sap, bird droppings, all road de-icing materials, spray paint, insects, hard water spots, or UV damage within 7 years of the manufacture date it is covered under warranty. If you are unable to clean the blemish off with soap and water, bring it to the dealer you purchased from to have it taken care of at no cost to you. Take a look at this product failure demonstration…

Not only does Simoniz protect the exterior of your vehicle. It will also cover the interior. It uses DuPont’s Teflon surface protector. It covers all consumable foods, chewing gum, make-up, crayons, ink, vomit, blood, urine stains, pet waste, dye transfer from clothing.

The product was even featured on the History Channel’s show ‘Modern Marvels’ see below…

Now if your car has been Simonized it doesn’t mean you don’t have to wash, shammy, and clean it. In order to keep its warranty coverage you need to complete this maintenance as normal. Only when you are unable to remedy any blemishes yourself will Simoniz cover you to have them fixed at the dealer.

Thanks to all who came out and joined us here at 1st State Chevy. To date, these events have rasied over $135,000.  We are already looking forwad to next year.

Here on Delmarva, surf fishing on Saturday and Sunday afternoons has become more and more popular with both locals and tourists.  You are able to enjoy a day of fishing, sun and fun while having everything at your disposal right in your 4WD vehicle.  With so many AWD and 4WD options in Chevy’s line-up, lets take a look at which models would perform best gliding across the soft sand and dune crossings.  We will hit points such as GVWR, ground clearance, cargo room, and best practices for the best performance.

9. Chevy Equinox

AWD V6: GVWR: 5,300lbs  Cargo Volume: 63.7 cu. ft./31.5 cu. ft.  Clearance: f:6.9 in r:6.9 in Passengers: 5

Ground clearance and AWD can be a concern for anyone attempting to take it on the beach. I would certainly not suggest an Equinox for any inexperienced drivers.  Those who know what their doing can make the Equinox work for them, but I personally wouldn’t recommend it if you are a frequent beach goer.

8. Chevy Traverse

AWD V6: GVWR: 6,459lbs  Cargo Volume: 116.4 cu. ft./68.8 cu. ft./24.4 cu. ft.  Clearance: f:7.2 in r:7.2 in Passengers: 8

Ground clearance and AWD can be a concern for anyone attempting to take it on the beach. I would certainly not suggest a Traverse for any inexperienced drivers.  Those who know what their doing can make the Traverse work for them.

7. Silverado HD 2500 4WD 6.6L Turbo Diesel

• Reg Cab: GVWR: 9,900lbs  Cargo Volume: N/A./75.5 cu. ft.                   Clearance: f:9.75 in r:9.10 in Passengers: 3
• Ext Cab: GVWR: 10,000lbs  Cargo Volume: 60.7 cu. ft./75.5 cu. ft.          Clearance: f:9.75 in r:8.5 in Passengers: 6
• Crew Cab: GVWR: 10,000lbs  Cargo Volume: 60.7 cu. ft./75.5 cu. ft.               Clearance: f:9.75 in r:8.2 in Passengers: 6

The Heavy Duty Silverados work well on the beach, especially if you haul a slide in camper for weekend stays.  Drivers should have some experience driving on the sand before tackling it with a heavy duty pickup. The weight of the pickup takes some getting used to when starting from a stop. The Diesel engine also produces so much torque, it can very easily bury itself before you know it. For the best performance, decrease the tire pressure to 15-20 psi, lock into 4WD high, and turn off traction control.

6. Silverado HD 2500 4WD Gas

• Reg Cab: GVWR: 9,500lbs  Cargo Volume: 60.7 cu. ft./75.5 cu. ft.        Clearance: f:9.5 in r:13.10 in Passengers: 3
• Ext Cab: GVWR: 9,500lbs  Cargo Volume: 60.7 cu. ft./75.5 cu. ft.          Clearance: f:9.3 in r:12.50 in Passengers: 6
• Crew Cab: GVWR: 9,500lbs  Cargo Volume: 60.7 cu. ft./75.5 cu. ft.                 Clearance: f:9.0 in r:12.10 in Passengers: 6

The Heavy Duty Silverados work well on the beach, especially if you haul a slide in camper for weekend stays.  Drivers should have some experience driving on the sand before tackling it with a heavy duty pickup. The weight of the pickup takes some getting used to when starting from a stop. For the best performance, decrease the tire pressure to 15-20 psi, lock into 4WD high, and turn off traction control.

5. Tahoe 1500 4WD

4WD V8: GVWR: 7,300lbs  Cargo Volume: 108.9 cu. ft./68.8 cu. ft./24.4 cu. ft.  Clearance: f:10.5 in r:9.10 in Passengers: 9

The Tahoe provides room for up to 9 passengers, but you can easily remove the 3rd row for plently of cargo room to load up beach essentials. For the best performance, decrease the tire pressure to 15-20 psi, lock into 4WD high, and turn off traction control.

4. Suburban 1500 4WD

4WD V8: GVWR: 7,400lbs  Cargo Volume: 137.4 cu. ft./68.8 cu. ft./24.4 cu. ft.  Clearance: f:10.5 in r:9.10 in Passengers: 9

If you want to haul a large family with a lot of cargo across the sand, the Chevy Suburban is your best choice. You can haul up to 9 people and still have room inside for the cooler, umbrella, towels and much more. For the best performance, decrease the tire pressure to 15-20 psi, lock into 4WD high, and turn off traction control.

3. Silverado 1500 4WD

• Reg Cab: GVWR: 6,400lbs  Cargo Volume: 60.7 cu. ft./75.5 cu. ft.  Clearance: f:9.5 in r:13.10 in Passengers: 3
• Ext Cab: GVWR: 7,000lbs  Cargo Volume: 60.7 cu. ft./75.5 cu. ft.          Clearance: f:9.3 in r:12.50 in Passengers: 6
• Crew Cab: GVWR: 7,000lbs  Cargo Volume: 53.2 cu. ft./N/A                 Clearance: f:9.0 in r:12.10 in Passengers: 6

Best truck on the road hands down.  The Silverado is no slouch on the beach either.  I am on my third Silverado and have been driving on the beach for 20 years without a seconds trouble. For the best performance, decrease the tire pressure to 15-20 psi, lock into 4WD high, and turn off traction control.

2. Colorado V6 4WD Z71

• Reg Cab: GVWR: 5,150lbs  Cargo Volume: 44 cu. ft./N/A                     Clearance: 11.2 in   Passengers: 3
• Ext Cab: GVWR: 5,300lbs  Cargo Volume: 44 cu. ft./N/A                       Clearance: 11.4 in    Passengers: 5
• Crew Cab: GVWR: 5,300lbs  Cargo Volume: 37 cu. ft./N/A                     Clearance: 11.4 in    Passengers: 6

With the Z71 package on the Ext Cab, the Colorado is the lightest vehicle with the highest clearance and widest tires available.  If we were to evaluate on drivablity across the beach alone, the Colorado would be the winner hands down.  What it lacks in passenger and cargo space it makes up for in drivability.

1. Avalanche 4WD

4WD V8: GVWR: 7,200lbs  Cargo Volume: 45.5 cu. ft./68.8 cu. ft./24.4 cu. ft.  Clearance: f:9.10 in r:9.10 in Passengers: 6

Versatility, The Chevy Avalanche is by far the most versatile vehicle in our line-up. With the ability to extend the cargo box up to 8 feet you can easily toss in a surfboard for the trip.  The covered cargo box will keep stuff high and dry if the weather turns foul. Bed side storage can double as a drink cooler with drains holes in the bottom, just throw in the ice.  You also have the ability to move up to 6 people on the trip and still have plenty of space to bring the necessities.  Performance across the sand is no issue for the Avalanche. For the best performance, decrease the tire pressure to 15-20 psi, lock into 4WD high, and turn off traction control.
