Chrysler

The Chrysler brand was awarded last night with a “Grand Effie” award for its “Imported from Detroit” campaign. The award was presented to the Chrysler brand at “44th Annual Effie Awards” gala held in New York.

“The ‘Imported from Detroit’ campaign was more than a commercial; it signified the start of the new Chrysler Group LLC and airing it during the Super Bowl allowed us to share our story with America. We are thankful to all of our consumers for joining us on this journey,” said Olivier Francois – Chief Marketing Officer, Chrysler Group LLC. “On behalf of everyone at the Chrysler brand and all of the employees at Chrysler Group we thank the voting jury for this honor.”

Partnering agencies Wieden+Kennedy from Portland, Ore and UniversalMcCann from Birmingham, Mich. shared the win with the Chrysler brand.

Way to go, Cody! Keep those five-star reviews rollin' in!

"Cody Morehead was the salesman that secured my business. I let him know the features I wanted in a vehicle and he showed me several vehicles that met my criteria. Ultimately, I chose the vehicle on the show room floor. Cody was very courteous and was not at all pushing to make a sale (he understood my desire to search without a salesperson hovering to make a sale). His knowledge about the vehicle was impressive and I was extremely satisfied with the answers. I purchased a 2012 RAM Longhorn truck and I'm happy with the vehicle." --Steve

Looks like we've impressed even more of our customers, team! Way to go.

"My family and I had an excellent truck buying experience from this dealership. Rick was very friendly and never pressured us on getting a vehicle. He listened to what we wanted and helped us find the truck that was right for us. I would greatly reccommend this dealership and working with Rick to anyone looking to buy a vehicle." --mcsully14

Keep up the great work, Bill! Thanks to the author of this review.

"Bill Ward was a great Sales person, who help us find exactly the car we were looking for. We first have been to two other RAM dealers in the area, but quality and friendliness at Perkins was so much better than for example at Colorado Springs Dodge. We would buy our car any time there again." -- Andreas

Weekly Maintenance Tip: Night Driving

Nd

 

 

 The most dangerous time to drive on any roadway is between the hours of midnight and 6am, especially on the weekends. Luckily, there are some things you can do to improve your safety when driving at night. But by following a few basic guidelines, you can minimize your risk.

  •  Keep it dark inside the car
    Turn off all interior lights. Any source of light inside the car will seem extremely bright and will make it more difficult to see.
  • Avoid smoking when driving at night
    The carbon monoxide and nicotine in cigarettes has a measurable, physical effect on your eyes. These chemicals can actually make it difficult to see well and clearly, especially at night.
  • Stay sharp
    Try chewing bubble gum to keep your mind humming. Also, drinking water and staying well hydrated may do wonders for mental alertness.
  • Rest early, rest often
    If you’re planning a longer night-driving expedition, make sure you bank a couple nights’ worth of good sleep before hitting the road. Also, plan on making frequent stops to stretch, walk, or have a small snack or moderate meal.  Some experts recommend stopping every two hours for a body/mind break.
  • Adjust your headlights for maximum effectiveness
    Check your headlights for proper alignment and ask your mechanic to adjust them properly. Adjusting your headlights may help you see more of the road while also protecting other drivers from wayward beams.

2012 Chrysler 300 Named One of the 10 Best Green Cars

Pmcarticle

The awards keep coming for Chrysler’s flagship luxury vehicle. Roadfly has named the 2012 Chrysler 300 one of the Ten Best Green Cars of 2012. The editors of Roadfly judged 2012 vehicles based on a number of criteria including fuel efficiency and environmental impact.

 

With an EPA estimated 31 mpg on the highway, the 2012 Chrysler 300 is finely tuned to reduce trips to the gas pump. The powerful 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine under the hood ensures that performance and fuel efficiency work in tandem.  In other words, the 300 isn’t a one-trick pony, as the editors of Roadfly took into account.

“MPG isn’t the only criteria used to determine the best green cars. We evaluate driving characteristics, cargo capacity, and even the Manufactures green initiatives,” said Roadfly Founder and Publisher, Charlie Romero.

The 2012 Chrysler 300 has earned a long list of awards and recognition. Recently, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave the 2012 Chrysler 300 a 5-star safety rating and the editors of Kelley Blue Book® named the 2012 Chrysler 300 one of the 10 Best Family Cars of 2012.

Another satisfied customer! Keep up the fantastic work, team.

"First and formost, Rick Clavelli was very friendly and knowledgeable Sales rep. He was on his "A" game the day I showed up. He made a complex situation seem easy and straight forward. I really did not expect to purchase a New-used vehicle, but when they met or at least came close to the figures I was willing to pay, you can only drive forward with a deal. I've had bad experiences in the past with car dealerships, but this time was a pleasant suprise. All I can say is give these guys a chance and they will do what they can to make you Happy. They completed the trade as fast as they could. and Jeff Lee the fimance guy was pleasant and very fast, they answered all my concerns, I'm a very Happy owner of a new Truck. Thanks Perkins, and Thanks Rick Clavelli." --xcbyker
