Well, here at http://www.citychevrolet.com/, our goal is simple...we do not want to distract you from what originally brought you here.

You can use the menu bar across the top and make your search from one of the department headings, including New, Pre-Owned, Fleet/Commercial, Service, Parts, Finance, and Collision Center. There are also separate tabs for Online Specials and an About Us section. OR, you can use the icons/tabs on the homepage if you are a "clicker" instead of using the dropdown menus. 2) To make it easy for you, we have our Inventory broken out into 3 sections: Pre-Owned (Used), New, and Commercial/Fleet. We have access to over 1000 pre-owned vehicles in our netword of Hendrick stores, which include most makes and models. We have hundreds of New and Commercial vehicles to suit your needs and desires.

Under the Commercial vehicles heading, we typically include Larger Trucks, such as Silverado 2500 and 3500s; Work Vans such as Cargo and Cutaways; Express Vans that hold up to 15 passengers; and also Silverado 1500s, Colorados, and HHRs that are typically used more for work or may have more of a "work" feel to them.

3) We have a separate section for Online Specials, both under the dropdown menu and a tab right there on our homepage. ALWAYS check this area out.

General Motors Unveils Unprecedented Customer Protection Package--"GM TOTAL CONFIDENCE"

In a press release dated March 31, 2009, 10:00 a.m. ET, General Motors unveiled an unprecedented customer protection package called "GM Total Confidence." Here are the benefits under this protection package:

• Payment protection for first 24 months of ownership...lose your income and we'll make up to nine payments for up to $500 per month
• Finance a new GM vehicle and we'll help protect its retail value at trade-in time on your next GM vehicle
• Safety and security of one year of OnStar, standard
• Fully backed, 5-year/100,000 mile limited powertrain warranty with roadside assistance and courtesy transportation...provides the best coverage in the industry
• http://www.gmconfidence.com/ website launched with program details

DETROIT--General Motors today announced the most comprehensive customer protection in the industry with "GM Total Confidence," a plan that protects a customer's paycheck, investment, vehicle, and family.

"Our Total Confidence plan is an unprecedented offer that reinvents the ownership experience in an extremely positive way," said Mark LaNeve, vice president, GM North America Vehicle Sales, Service and Marketing. "Unlike other programs out there, 'GM Total Confidence' provides comprehensive coverage for new vehicle owners--from protecting their new vehicle investment to protecting their family's income. GM Total Confidence provides customers peace of mind in uncertain times."

The 'GM Total Confidence' plan:

• PROTECTS YOUR PAYCHECK: 'Payment Protection*' provides up to nine months of payments on vehicle loans or leases ($500 max/month) if you lose your job for economic reasons. When looking for a job, you need a vehicle more than ever. 'Payment Protection' helps you get back on your feet.
• PROTECTS YOUR INVESTMENT: Once you are halfway through your finance contract, the customer qualifies for 'Vehicle Value Protection.*' This helps protect customers against uncertainty in the future used car market. For example, on a 60-month contract, you become eligible after the 30th month. Much as we've seen home prices decline in this tough market--and homeowners may owe more than the current resale value of their house--'Vehicle Value Protection' provides peace-of-mind for customers when they want to go purchase another GM vehicle.
• PROTECTS YOUR VEHICLE: GM's 5-year/100,000 mile transferable powertrain limited warranty (whichever comes first) plus roadside assistance and courtesy transportation. GM protects your vehicle with the best coverage in the business--so you don't have to worry. With the high quality of GM vehicles today, offering the best coverage only makes sense. See City Chevrolet for warranty details.
• PROTECTS YOUR FAMILY: One Year OnStar 'Safety and Security' Package. Knowing that OnStar is there if you should ever need them really makes a difference. With Automatic Crash Response, OnStar's cutting-edge technology that protects your family when they travel. Visit http://www.onstar.com/ for more details.

"By protecting a customer's payment, investment, vehicle and family, we are reinventing the customer experience," LaNeve added. "The 'GM Total Confidence' plan addresses today's most pressing concerns for new car buyers...we asked customers what they wanted, and simply put, this package is it."

The "GM Total Confidence" plan is available for vehicles purchased April 1 through April 30, 2009. For more information, please visit http://www.gmconfidence.com/.
