Everyone wants to have a vehicle that provides phenomenal fuel efficiency, but not every vehicle provides remarkable fuel efficiency numbers, certainly not pickup trucks when compared to certain cars. But a lot can be said about having good habits that can make your gas tank last a little longer. We’ll take a closer look at things you can adopt to save money and improve your fuel efficiency.

Don’t Weigh Down Your Truck

Stop weighing down your truck with items you don’t use. The more your vehicle has to work to support your daily driving habits, the more energy it requires to haul, the more fuel it burns and the more money out of your pocket. Take some time to determine everything you need to keep in your truck and store the other items somewhere else.The main takeaway is to lighten your ship, cut out the fat and save your resources from fuel to what’s in your wallet. Plus, a lighter truck always feels smoother on the road than a loaded down truck does.

Get Routine Checkups

Maintenance is the key to securing your vehicle will continue to run well and provide the best fuel efficiency possible. This includes checking your tires to make sure they are properly inflated and having your wheels properly aligned.

Don’t Leave Your Truck Running

Whenever possible, make sure your truck is only running when you have to drive. Staying idle only spends precious fuel and will bring you back faster to the pumps. If your vehicle is going to be running longer than a minute without driving anywhere, you should turn off your vehicle to conserve gas.

Monitor Your Driving Habits

How a truck owner drives goes hand and hand with their average fuel economy. Some driving habits that can affect fuel efficiency include following slow drivers, not paying attention to the road ahead, slowing down before passing an intersection with a green light, accelerating very hard and fast, excessive speeding and traveling at uneven speeds.

Tailgating is also a huge gas waster! Not only is tailgating very dangerous, but tailgators will also have to brake a lot more, and braking kills fuel economy. Keep your speed and driving flow constant to see better fuel economy returns by your truck’s RPM’s at a steady level. A good trick to maintain an even speed is by using cruise control. Set your cruise control to a reasonable speed and you will stay in that constant speed, saving you money and making your drive easier.

Measure Your Vehicle’s Fuel Economy

Taking a few seconds to measure how far you go while driving helps in more ways than one. By knowing how far and how often you’re filling up on gas is a smart way to maximize fuel efficiency. For any reason there’s a sudden drop in fuel economy and a spike in frequent gas station visits, then that could be a sign of possible engine trouble.

Chevy Vehicles Now Available with New Amazon Key In-Car Delivery

April 26, 2018 By chloe

Posted in Chevrolet dealer

Automakers are always looking for a new way to improve their vehicles, and now more than ever they are doing that with tech. GM has partnered up with Amazon to offer a completely new service that uses tech to make life easier. The new service is called Amazon Key In-Car Delivery and it makes it possible for Amazon packages to be delivered inside of select Chevrolet, Buick, GM, and Cadillac vehicles.

How To Use the Service

Amazon Key In-Car Delivery is available in 37 U.S. cities and requires a user to be an Amazon Prime member, have an Amazon Key account, an active OnStar account and a GM vehicle that is 2015 or newer. To use the service, a user needs to download the Amazon Key App, sync it up with their OnStar account and register the delivery location. Once that is complete, users can opt for the in-car delivery option whenever they place an order.

How It Works

So how does the package get in the car? The courier uses satellite location tracking to locate the vehicle, and then they are able to wirelessly unlock the trunk and put the package inside.

Advantages of Amazon Key In-Car Delivery

The service is great for people that don’t like their packages waiting outside unattended. It’s also especially helpful for people that get items delivered while they are out of town for a few days because not only is the package kept in a secured area, it is also kept out of rain and other elements. The service also makes it easier for people to get deliveries and keep them hidden from other people in the household, which is nice for presents that are supposed to be a surprise.

“Partnering with Amazon to leverage our embedded in-vehicle connectivity gives Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac owners the option to conveniently receive deliveries inside their vehicle parked at home, work or near other locations in their Amazon address book,” said Alan Batey, President, General Motors North America. “This is another example of how we provide customers with technologies that add value and enhance the ownership experience.”

If you have a Chevy vehicle that is of the 2015 model year or newer and you want help setting up the service, come to Miami Lakes Automall, we’d be happy to help. If you don’t have a Chevy and you want to get a Chevy and benefit from all of their convenient technology options like Amazon Key In-Car Delivery, we can help with that, too. Miami Lakes Automall has a huge selection of Chevy models and we’re open seven days a week.

Even though the 2019 Chevy Silverado was recently released, Chevrolet hasn’t stopped making headlines with what will come next. In 2019, the next-generation Silverado HD will be released as a 2020 model Chevy Silverado HD. This new Silverado HD is going to be the third all-new truck in the Silverado lineup revealed in just 18 months, along with 2019 Silverado 1500 and the 2019 Silverado 4500/5500/6500HD models. This will be in addition to their already large number of popular Chevy vehicles.

“Chevrolet already fuels the most successful truck manufacturer in the industry,” said Alan Batey, global head of Chevrolet. “With a completely new, expanded range of Silverado models on the horizon, we expect to see even more truck buyers in Chevrolet showrooms.”

The upcoming next-generation Silverado HD was designed with the thought of satisfying the needs of heavy-duty truck customers. The next step is test driving the latest Silverado HD prototypes as they will be tested through Chevrolet’s increased durability and validation standards. More detailed product information will be provided in 2019.

The 2019 Silverado 1500 was introduced in January of this year (2018). The new Silverado 1500 weighs less than the outgoing model (approximately 450 pounds less for crew cab V8 models), and maintains the heritage of strong built Chevrolet full-size pickups. The new Silverado 1500 will offer consumers a wide range of trims, engine and transmission combinations for a wide range of Chevy loyalists.

“Chevrolet has built more than 85 million trucks in 100 years and we have applied that accumulated truck expertise to the new Silverado range,” said Batey. “All three Silverado models offer a wide range of choices, as no two truck customers are alike. Every Silverado is built to be long-lasting and dependable, as many customers need their trucks to earn a living or to do what they enjoy most when they’re off the clock. Finally, every Silverado is built to work. As we know every truck, no matter how luxurious, has a job to do.”

While the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 4500HD, 5500HD, and 6500HD chassis-cab models were introduced in March 2018, the plans for the future have already been announced. The first-ever Silverado medium-duty trucks were designed specifically for commercial customers, with an emphasis on being easy to drive, easy to upfit and easy to service and they will offer all of that in the 2019 line-up.

2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Among the pick-up trucks out there, there are not many that offer the versatility and reliability like the 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 provides. From the base model that provides 5,500 up to 9,400 pounds of towing ability and gets drivers up to 18 city and 24 highway MPG. With a large number of packages and trim levels, there’s plenty to find in the 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500.

2018 is the 60th Anniversary of the Chevy Impala

April 20, 2018 By chloe

Posted in Miami Chevy

1958 was the first model year of the Chevrolet Impala, and after 60 years of production, the Chevy Impala is still as impressive as it was in its first year of production.

Introduction of the Impala

The first generation of the Impala was actually called the Chevy Bel Air Impala and it was a limited edition model of the Chevy Bel Air that was created to celebrate General Motors’ (GM) 50th anniversary.

The Bel Air Impala had top-of-the-line features and an iconic exterior look. The 1958 Chevy Bel Air Impala was available with as a hardtop coupe or as a convertible coupe, and like all 1958 Chevy models, the vehicle had a wider, lower and longer exterior design. The 1958 Chevy Bel Air Impala didn’t have the tailfins of the 1957 Chevy Bel Air, instead it had sculpted rear fenders with dummy rear fender scoops. Other notable exterior features include three taillamps and dual headlamps, which was the first time that was seen on the Bel Air.

The standard engine on the 1958 Chevy Bel Air Impala was equipped with a 283-cubic-inch V8 engine, but there was also an available 348-cubic-inch V8 engine.

Impala Makes a Name for Itself

Production of the Chevy Bel Air Impala was extremely fruitful for Chevrolet and in 1959, Chevrolet actually turned the Impala into a new model, and the 1959 and 1960 model year Impala models are second-generation models. The 1959 Chevy Impala was available in four body styles, a convertible coupe, hardtop coupe, four-door hardtop or four-door sedan. The second generation design had pronounced tail fins and dual headlamps. 1959 Chevy Impala models had a unique teardrop taillight design, but 1960 Impala models had three round tail lamps. Engines included a 235-cubic-inch, 283-cubic-inch or 348-cubic-inch engine.

In 1961, Chevy introduced the third-generation Chevy Impala and it was fairly different from the second-generation design because it was based off GM’s B Platform, as opposed to GM’s A Platform, which was used for the Bel Air Impala and 1959-1960 Impala. The new B Platform was boxier and had a more streamlined exterior design. 1961 was the first year the iconic “Super Sport” option, a performance option, was available on the Impala lineup.

The third-generation Impala was produced from 1961-1964 and it included six body styles, a two-door coupe, two-door convertible, two-door hardtop, four-door hardtop, four-door sedan and four-door station wagon. Engine options included a 230-cubic-inch, 283-cubic-inch, 327-cubic-inch, 348-cubic-inch, 409 cubic-inch engines, and 1963 Impala models were available with a 427 cubic-inch engine. The 427-cubic-inch engine was specially designed for drag racers and NASCAR.

Chevy released the fourth-generation Impala in 1965, and production continued until 1970. In 1965 the Impala set an all-time industry annual sales record of 1,000,000 units in the U.S. In 1965 the Chevy Impala had a new frame that was smaller, and Chevy also introduced the Chevy Impala Caprice, and it had upgraded features as well as features seen on the SS models. The fourth-generation Impala models were available in the same six body styles, and there were 10 engine options. In 1970, Chevy ended production of the Impala SS.

From 1971-1976 Chevy produced the fifth-generation Chevy Impala. Fifth-generation models were available in six body styles, but the number of engine options decreased from 10 to five. In 1977, Chevy redesigned the Chevy Impala, and this became the sixth-generation Impala. Sixth-generation Impala models were smaller, and hardly recognizable in comparison to the original 1958 Bel Air Impala. Sixth-generation models were produced from 1977-1985, and after 1985, production of the Impala was put on pause.

The Impala went back into production in 1994 as the Chevy Impala SS. 1994 was the start of the seventh-generation models, and the Impala had a significantly different look, which is no surprise since it was almost a decade since the last Impala was produced. The seventh-generation Impala was equipped with a 5.7-liter engine and available in two body styles, a four-door sedan and four-door station wagon. In 1996, Chevy ended production of the seventh-generation Impala SS.

The eighth-generation Impala was produced from 2000-2005 and it looked significantly more modern than the previous generation design. Eighth generation models were only available with a sedan body, and there were two engine options, a 3.8-liter engine and a 3.4-liter engine. The eighth-generation Impala had a sleek front end design and a unique rear design that featured two seats of dual round tail lights.

2006 marked the beginning of the ninth-generation Impala design. Available from 2006-2016, ninth-generation Impala models were only available with a sedan body, however, Chevy increased the number of engine types to eight engines. The ninth-generation Impala had a completely redesigned front and rear.

Chevy Impala Today

Chevy introduced the tenth-generation Chevy Impala in 2014, and that is the same generation of the Impala models on the streets today (2018). The 2018 Chevy Impala is only available with one body style, which is a full-size sedan. The 2018 is available with two engines, a 3.6-liter engine and the 2.5-liter EcoTec3 engine. Tenth-generation Impala models have earned a number of awards including “2017 Best Large Car for the Money” from the U.S. News and World Report and “Best Full-Size Car” by Kelly Blue Book in 2017.

The Chevy Impala has gone through a number of changes, and today the Impala is a modern sedan that’s perfect for families and professionals. You can search Chevy Impala inventory online at Miami Lakes Chevrolet. We have plenty of Chevy Impala models to choose from.

The new trim is equipped with a 275-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged engine and it has a variety of features like specially tuned dampers and a FE3 suspension that enhance the vehicle’s performance on the track. Due to the special tuning and enhancements, the Camaro Turbo 1LE has nearly 50/50 weight distribution.

Other Changes

Other changes to the 201 Camaro include a new more advanced infotainment system called Infotainment 3. The new system has an easier-to-use interface and there are more ways for users to personalize the system.
