Did you know that used cars can come with warranty coverage? Of course, they have to be the right used cars. Certified Pre-Owned Chevrolet models, for example, come with two warranties.

Extended New Car Bumper-To-Bumper Limited Warranty

Every new Chevy comes with a 3-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty. And all CPO models will whatever’s left of that.

Plus, when it ends, it will be covered by an additional 12 months or 12,000 miles.

Extended Powertrain Limited Warranty

All new Chevy models have a 6-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty. And when they become CPO vehicles, they still benefit from that coverage.

What Do These Warranties Cover?

Both of these warranties cover a wide range of parts and components, such as the engine, drivetrain, and transmission. You will also get emergency roadside assistance for the duration of the powertrain warranty.

This includes jumpstarts, gas delivery, and flat tire changes. If necessary, you can also get your car towed to an authorized repair facility, as well as receive a reimbursement for alternate transportation.

CARFAX Vehicle History Report

You’ll never be in the dark about how your CPO vehicle was treated by previous owners with a comprehensive history report.

Free Scheduled Maintenance

You’ll get two free maintenance visits within two years or 24,000 miles. These include oil and filter changes, multi-point inspections, and tire rotations.

Free Trials

CPO Chevy models come with a free 3-month trial of OnStar, which includes navigation services and automatic crash response. You will also get three free months of SiriusXM® satellite radio.

To learn more about CPO Chevy vehicles or to take one for a test drive, come down to Scott Chevrolet in Allentown.

Not just any truck will do when there is work to be done. If you want a pickup that will have no trouble towing or hauling whatever you need it to, it’s time for a large Chevy truck.

Chevy Silverado 2500HD

The Chevy Silverado 2500HD comes with a 6.6-liter V8 engine that produces 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque. This is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.

You can also go with a Duramax® diesel 6.6-liter V8 that generates 445 horsepower and 910 lb-ft of torque. With this engine you will get an Allison 10-speed automatic transmission.

Either rear- or all-wheel drive is available. The Chevy Silverado 2500HD has outstanding towing and hauling ability, too. When properly equipped, you’ll be able to tow up to 14,500 pounds and haul up to 3,900 pounds.

Chevy Silverado 3500HD

The Chevy Silverado 3500HD also comes standard with a 6.6-liter V8 engine that puts out 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque, which is mated to a 6- automatic transmission. It too has an available Duramax® diesel 6.6-liter V8 that generates 445 horsepower and 910 lb-ft of torque and comes with an Allison 10-speed automatic transmission.

However, the Chevy Silverado 3500HD takes those towing and hauling numbers to a whole other stratosphere. While the base engine will let you tow up to 17,370 pounds, that bigger one has a tow rating of 36,000 pounds.

No other truck in the class comes close to that. The maximum payload is pretty fantastic too: 4,572 pounds.

Think you’re paying too much in interest for your car loan? You might be right. While interest rates have dipped in the last year, if you started financing before they went down, you could be spending more money than you need to.

This is why you may want to consider refinancing with GM, as this can cut your monthly costs significantly.

What Does Refinancing Mean?

If you have never refinanced anything before, you probably have questions about it. This basically just means that you will be taking out a new loan with a lower interest rate.

It is important to keep in mind that there is a fee involved when you refinance. There are also a couple of areas to think about before starting the process.

If You Can Get a Better Rate

As we mentioned, interest rates are pretty low right now. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean that you will be able to cash in. If your credit score is the same as it was when you first got your loan – or worse – you may not qualify.

If it has gotten better, find out what your interest rate could be. Then find out what the refinancing fee will be and crunch the numbers to see if it’s worth it.

The Age of Your Vehicle

Another factor that could play a role with refinancing is the age of your car. If it is eight years old or older or has more than 100,000 miles, you may have trouble finding a lender willing to give you a new loan.

To learn more about refinancing and to see if this is a good option for you, just get in touch with the financing department at Scott Chevrolet in Allentown.

These days, you don’t necessarily need a huge SUV if you’re looking for a vehicle with a lot of storage capability. The Chevy Equinox, for example, may be a compact model, but you’ll be pleasantly surprised with what you find inside. Here you’ll learn about the Chevy Equinox storage features, along with some of its other amenities.

Chevy Equinox Storage Dimensions

Behind the back 60/40 split-folding bench seat in the Chevy Equinox, you’ll have 29.9 cubic feet of space to work with.

But, once you put it down, that storage more than doubles to 63.9 cubic feet. And when the entire back row is down, the cargo floor is completely flat.

Chevy Equinox Storage Compartments

You’ll get even more space to store your stuff with a hidden cargo bin under the floor. In addition to giving you extra room, this is a great way to add an extra layer of protection for your items.

Easy Loading and Unloading

You can get your Chevy Equinox equipped with a power liftgate or a hands-free liftgate. This latter option will especially come in handy if you need to open the liftgate and you’ve got your hands full.

The Chevy Equinox includes other stellar features as well—beyond its storage capabilities.

Countless Tech Features

These include Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and a Wi-Fi hot spot. Four USB ports, proximity keyless entry, and a 7-inch touchscreen are also standard.

Advanced Safety Components

This SUV is designed with safety in mind, as every model comes with forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and lane keep assist. You will also get a rearview camera, pedestrian detection, and automatic high-beam headlights.

Visit Scott Chevrolet in Allentown to take a look at all of the storage space you’ll get in the new Chevy Equinox.

It’s now easier than ever to shop for cars online. But, to find the right model, you have to be smart about how you research, and that means answering these key questions.

New or Used (or Maybe Certified Pre-Owned)?

The first thing to think about when looking for your car is if you want a new or used vehicle.

Certified Pre-Owned is another choice, offering the value of a used vehicle with the quality-assurance of a new model. Your budget can determine which type of car you’re leaning towards.

Which Body Styles are You Looking for?

The next area to consider is the body style. If you want a big interior that fits a lot of people, an SUV is a good choice.

If you’re looking for great handling and fuel economy, you may want to go with a sedan. If you see towing and hauling in your future, consider a pickup truck.

What are Your Must-Haves and Nice-to-Haves?

Surely you have a few essentials for your next ride. This could include lots of cargo room, advanced safety features, or a premium sound system.

There are also probably features you’d like to see but maybe aren’t essential, such as heated seats or a Wi-Fi hot spot. Making a list of your needs and wants can help you narrow down your choices significantly.

Don’t Forget the Test Drive

While you can get a lot of details and information about vehicles online, it doesn’t measure up to experiencing a car or truck in person.

Once you’ve found a couple of models you like, you need to take them out for a test drive. Seeing how they perform out on the road can help you determine which model is best for you.

Check out the online inventory at Scott Chevrolet and then come see us in Allentown to see our models in person.

New or used? If you can’t decide which option to go with when buying an SUV, there’s another one to consider that essentially splits the difference. With a Certified Pre-Owned SUV, you’ll get a vehicle you know you can count on, as these models are five years old or newer with less than 80,000 miles. But that’s not all.

Pass an Inspection

Every Certified Pre-Owned SUV has to undergo an extensive inspection process before it can get the CPO label. In addition to looking at major components like the engine, a certified technician will also look closely at things like the paint and upholstery.

CPO vehicles are taken for a road test to gauge their performance, as well. And if anything needs to be fixed or replaced, only genuine parts will be used.

Vehicle History Report

For even more peace of mind with your CPO SUV, you can check out its CARFAX® Vehicle History Report. This will let you know how many previous owners the car has had and offer details about the services and repairs it has received.

Come with Warranty Coverage

All CPO models will get the remainder of the original in-service warranty if it is still applicable. Once it ends, they will then be covered by an additional CPO warranty, which can often be extended.

Include Emergency Assistance

For the duration of the CPO warranty, you’ll be able to get help whenever you need it. This includes getting a flat tire changed, having your door unlocked if you left the key inside, getting a jumpstart for a dead battery, and even a tow if need be.

If you’re ready to drive home in a Certified Pre-Owned SUV, visit Scott Chevrolet in Allentown to see everything in stock.

The Chevy Traverse has outstanding power, surprisingly nice handling, and impressive gas mileage. But that’s just scratching the surface. The Chevy Traverse interior features are also very impressive, whether you’re focused on comfort, cargo, space, tech, or all three.

Comfort

The base Chevy Traverse comes with a second-row bench seat, so it offers plenty of space for up to eight people. Upper trims have captain’s chairs, which lowers the passenger capacity by one. Cloth upholstery is standard, but you can opt for leather as well.

You can also get power-adjustable front seats which can be heated and ventilated, a power-folding third-row bench, heated second-row seats, and a heated steering wheel.

Cargo Space

Few SUVs in the Chevy Traverse class can match its cargo space. You will get 23 cubic feet behind the third row, 57.8 cubic feet with those seats down, and 98.2 cubic feet with both back rows folded. There is also a hidden bin under the cargo floor for more storage space.

A power liftgate and a hands-free power liftgate are available, as well.

Tech

The Chevy Traverse is loaded with tech. Every model comes with an infotainment system with a 7-inch touchscreen, a Wi-Fi hot spot, Android Auto™, Apple CarPlay®, Bluetooth®, and six USB ports.

If you’re looking for more, navigation, wireless device charging, a 10-speaker Bose® sound system, and a rear-seat entertainment system with a DVD player can be added.

Outstanding power, very nice handling, and state-of-the-art amenities. Those are all reasons to think about buying a 2021 Chevy Tahoe. However, the Chevy Tahoe space also offers enough room for the whole family.

Loads of Cargo Room

No matter what you need to bring with you on your travels, you should have little difficulty fitting it inside your Chevy Tahoe.

Few SUVs can compete with these numbers: 25.5 cubic feet behind the third row, 72.6 cubic feet when it is down, and a whopping 122.9 cubic feet with both rear rows down. A hands-free power liftgate comes standard.

Even More Space for Your Stuff

Aside from the massive amount of cargo space aside, there are also other places for your supplies in the cabin. There are several small storage compartments throughout the Chevy Tahoe, as well as a bin under the armrest on the power-sliding center console.

One-Touch Folding

A notable feature of the new Chevy Tahoe is that if you want to fold down the third row, you can do so just by pushing a button.

No more having to deal with annoying levers or confusing straps. Just hit the switch and load up your supplies.

A Flat Floor

Many large SUVs offer a lot of space, but, thanks to cumbersome seats, it’s not always usable. That’s never an issue with the Chevy Tahoe. Both back rows fold down flat, so even long items will fit perfectly.

Want to see what it is like in the cavernous Chevy Tahoe? Visit Scott Chevrolet in Allentown. You can check out all of the places you’ll be able to store your stuff. You can also take it for a test drive to see how it performs out on the road.
