2023 Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 Unveiled
Yesterday, General Motors finally unveiled the new 2022 Chevrolet Silverado ZR2. This will be the most off road capable truck that Chevrolet has made. When General Motors put out a teaser video a few months ago, a lot of people where hoping that this would be General Motor's response to the Ford Raptor and the Ram TRX. The 2022 Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 will not have anywhere near the power of those trucks but will still be very capable off road. We do not know everything about the ZR2 yet but from the looks of it, it is going to be a very popular truck.
It will be equipped with 420 HP and comes stock with 33 inch tires. It will have an upgraded suspension system that will be able to handle off road terrain. The suspension is said to have components of Baja trucks. A Baja truck is a truck th...

Electric Silverado to have 4 Wheel Steering
There is a lot of hype surrounding all of the new electric vehicles that will be hitting the market in the next few years. Every manufacturer is scrambling to come up with all of these electric vehicles to replace the traditional gas powered vehicles. These electric vehicles are going to have an amazing amount of tech in them.

Could the Camaro be Going Electric?
The future of the Chevrolet Camaro is kind of up in the air at this point. There have been differing reports on what is going to happen to the Camaro. Some reports have shown that this 6th generation of the Camaro is going to be the last. But then you see some other articles that say the complete opposite. So we really do not know what the future will hold for the Chevrolet Camaro.
The latest report that has come out stated that Chevrolet may be planning to replace the Camaro with some sort of performance EV sedan. This sounds a lot like what Ford has done with the Mustang Mach- E. the only difference would be that one is an SUV and the other would be a sedan. If Chevrolet were to go with a sedan, it would be an interesting choice because there are not many sedan being produced any more. SU...

2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 will have Flat- Plan Crankshaft
This past week, Chevrolet released a teaser of what the 2023 Corvette Z06 is going to sound like. It definitely does not sound like a regular Corvette, that's for sure. The new 2023 Corvette Z06 is going to have a flat- plane crankshaft in it. That will give it that Ferrari sound to it. Chevrolet really went for it with the C8 Corvette from a looks standpoint and now they are doubling down and going after those Italian brands. The Corvette looks like and performs like a European supercar but for less than half the price. If you are looking at a Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren or any other supercar, they are going to cost you way more money than a Chevrolet Corvette.
The starting price for a Corvette Stingray is right around $60,000. Most people customize them to how they want them so it will...

2022 Colorado gets Trailboss Package
Just announced!
The 2022 Chevrolet Colorado will be available with the Trailboss package. It will have some components of the Colorado ZR2 but will not be quite as off- road capable. This upgrade to the Colorado is more of an upgrade to the LT and Z71 trim levels. You will be getting the lift, wheels and tires, along with some other exterior enhancements. Some of the main differences in the ZR2 Colorado and the Colorado Trailboss are that you will not be getting the DSSV shocks or the locking front differential that comes on the Colorado ZR2.
There will be some similarities in the two Colorados though. You will notice that the wheels from the Colorado ZR2 will be put on the Colorado Trailboss, but will be painted black. Some other features the Colorado Trailboss will have is a front and mid...

ALL ELECTRIC SILVERADO- COMING SOON
The president of General Motors, Mark Reuss, announced the last week that Chevrolet will introduce an electric Silverado sometime soon. This electric Silverado is going to be built at the ZERO assembly plants in Detroit and Hamtramck, Michigan. This all new Silverado has been completely rebuilt to be an EV vehicle. General Motors is making some big claims about this Silverado already. This electric Silverado is said to have an estimated 400 mile range. That is quite a long range. The bolt doesn't even have that long of a range. If Chevrolet succeeds with an EV Silverado, that will inspire a lot of confidence with consumers with future EV models that will come out. The Silverado is Chevrolet's best selling vehicle so if they can make a good electric version, people should have a lot of conf...
HOW TO PROPERLY MAINTAIN DIESEL ENGINES IN THE COLD?
Over the past week or so, we have been experiencing some extremely cold temperatures. We have a few recommendations for our diesel owners that might come in handy the next time it gets really cold. Our parts department offers a few different products that will keep your diesel engine running correctly in the extreme cold. When the temperature gets colder and colder, diesel fuel will begin to change. The normal consistency of diesel fuel is a liquid like regular pump gas. But when it gets really cold out, the diesel fuel will begin to gel up. It becomes thick and will clog up the fuel filter. When that filter becomes clogged, the vehicle will not be able to start. Here are a few things that you can add to your diesel fuel to help this from happening.
