City Chevrolet's New Intern!

Meet Cevin Crawford...City Chevrolet's 2nd Official Summer Intern! That's pronounced like "Kevin" not "7." Cevin comes to us all the way from Northwood University, which is in Midland, Michigan. In the fall, he will begin his Senior year in Automotive Marketing, which is the chief major that Northwood University is known for. This is the 2nd year that Hendrick has participated in the summer internship program with Northwood University. Each intern is required to complete 400 hours within a 9-week period. Last summer, our intern, Ryan Koch, was placed in variable operations and spent the majority of his time in our CDC/Internet Department. This year, Cevin Crawford will be spending thie majority of his 9 weeks gracing our Service Department and shadowing Tripp Wilson, who is one of City's finest and senior Service Advisors.

When Cevin was asked what he wants to do after his last year at college, he said, "I want to work for a big company like Hendrick." He went on to say that maybe he'd like to follow in his dad's footsteps and own a store someday, as his father had opened his own pre-owned store in 1981 called Tuscola Brokers.

I asked Cevin what the best part of interning at City Chevrolet is, and he responded, "the reputation and how business is run...you take care of the customer." When I asked him who the nicest person is that he has met so far, he quickly responded, "Tim Whitten...he's fun!" Since Tim is Cevin's manager for the summer and will ultimately determine Cevin's "internship fate," that was a wise, yet candid response!

"One last question," I said. "Why did your parents name you 'Cevin' with a 'C' and not a 'K'?" Cevin chuckled a bit and said "The night before I was born, my dad had a dream that one day I would own a dealership and it would be called 'Cevin Crawford Chevrolet'...all C's!" With a foresight like his father's, combined with the drive and determination that we've witnessed from Cevin, watch out Michigan dealerships, watch out!
