One of the great things about buying a new truck is that it could come with all the bells and whistles. The downside? All those bells and whistles are expensive. Fortunately, you always have the option to go with an older model and then add some upgrades. Check out these ideas for modifying used pickup trucks:

Lift Kit

Do you take your truck to some of the more rugged parts of Pennsylvania? With a lift kit, you’ll get a lot more ground clearance, which means you can avoid rocks and other debris that can hurt your vehicle.

LED Light Bars

And if your off-roading adventures continue past sundown, you can keep things illuminated with LED light bars. These are also good for lighting up dark roads so you can enjoy a safer drive, or setting up a campsite.

Cold-Air Intake System

If the power is lagging a little in your truck (or maybe you just want to rev things up), think about putting in a cold-air intake system. In addition to increasing horsepower, this can also improve your gas mileage.

Tonneau Cover

Having a large bed in the back makes hauling easy. However, anything you put in there is exposed to the elements. A Tonneau cover will help keep all of your cargo secure and protected.

These are just a few examples of the sort of things you can do to your truck. And the best part is that no matter what part or accessory you want to add, you can get it through the parts department at our Chevy dealership

Many people interested in buying a car take a look at their savings account and decide they just can’t afford to. Fortunately, you don’t have to have a ton of money tucked away in order to get the vehicle you need. This is one of the big benefits of financing, and our Chevy finance department makes the process easy.

What is Financing?

When you finance a car, you borrow money from a bank or other financial institution to pay for it. The fee for borrowing comes in the form of an interest rate. You can reduce the amount you’ll need to from a lender with a down payment.

How Does the Financing Process Work?

To get things rolling, all you need to do is fill out our online pre-approval application. This lets you put in information like the type of car you’re interested in and your employment details. Once submitted, we will contact you to talk about the next steps.

See What Your Trade-in Is Worth

If you will be trading in an older vehicle, you could already have the assets you need for a good down payment. With our trade-in tool, you can get a great idea of what your car is worth.

While you may have a specific car in mind, be sure to take a look at our current offers. These savings may just encourage you to think about another vehicle that wasn’t on your radar, like the Chevy Blazer.

Any Questions about Financing? Contact Us!

Our Allentown Chevrolet dealership wants to make financing as stress-free as possible. If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

It’s always nice to have lots of choices when you’re looking to buy something. However, when there are too many items to pick from, making a decision can be tough. If you’re looking for a midsized SUV, this guide uses Chevy traverse reviews to compare the 2021 Chevy Traverse with the 2021 Honda Pilot.

Power and Performance

If you want a vehicle with lots of muscle, the Chevy Traverse will deliver. It’s 3.6-liter V6 engine puts out an impressive 310 horsepower.

On top of its fantastic acceleration, this Chevrolet SUV offers excellent suspension, and has little trouble absorbing road flaws.

The Honda Pilot comes with a 3.5-liter V6 engine, but it only produces 280 horsepower.

Tech

Looking for state-of-the-art tech in your new car? Every 2021 Chevy Traverse comes with a very user-friendly infotainment system with a 7-inch touchscreen. You will also get:

• Apple CarPlay™

• Android Auto™

• Bluetooth®

• A Wi-Fi hot spot

• 6 USB ports

There are also tons of available features, such as wireless device charging, navigation, satellite radio, and a rear-seat entertainment system with a DVD player.

The technology in the Honda Pilot is sparse. While Bluetooth® is standard, you will only get 2 USB ports. If you want a touchscreen or any smartphone integration, you will need to upgrade.

Want to learn more about the Chevy Traverse? Visit our Chevy dealership in Allentown to try out all of its features and to take it for a test drive. And if you already know it’s the right vehicle for you, you can buy it online and have it delivered right to your home.

If you’re one of those people who has to know everything about something before you even think about buying it, you most likely spend a lot of time researching new cars. And if you’re interested in the 2021 Chevy Equinox, you probably want to know about its specs, including the Chevy Equinox gas tank size (14.9 gallons, by the way).

Check out this guide to the 2021 Chevy Equniox:

Chevy Equinox Powertrain

The Chevy Equinox has a turbocharged 1.5-liter engine that generates 170 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque. This is paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission.

The other engine option is a turbocharged 2.0-liter unit that offers 252 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission.

Chevy Equinox Drivetrain

Front-wheel drive is standard in the Chevy Equinox, but you can opt for all-wheel drive.

Whichever you choose, you will be getting an SUV that’s “agreeable and easy to drive,” according to Car and Driver, which adds that “the [Chevy] Equinox handles competently, and its steering is accurate and direct.”

Chevy Equinox Gas Tank Size and Gas Mileage

As mentioned above, the Chevy Equinox can hold 14.9 gallons of gasoline. When you go with the standard engine and front-wheel drive, the Chevy Equinox offers 26 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway, both of which are very good numbers for its class.

If you opt for all-wheel drive, you’ll get 25 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway. With the bigger engine and front-wheel drive, those numbers drop to 22 and 29.

This info just scratches the surface of the 2021 Chevy Equinox. To get an up-close look at everything it offers, visit our Allentown Chevy dealership.

We know that when people are looking for a new truck, they’ll eventually find some Chevy Colorado reviews. They’ll also look at some of the truck’s competitors as well, so they can see how it stacks up against the other vehicles in its class. So today, we’re pitting the Chevrolet Colorado up against the Toyota Tacoma, to see which is the better mid-size truck.

The 2021 Toyota Tacoma

The Toyota Tacoma is a capable mid-size pickup, with their 3.5-liter V6 engine generating up to 278 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque.

With a variety of traction control methods and some nice tech features like standard Apple CarPlay® (but not Android Auto™), you can haul and have a good time in this ride. That’s all well and good, but…

The 2021 Chevrolet Colorado

…This is what it’s all about. The 2021 Chevrolet Colorado’s powerful 3.6-liter V6 engine delivers up to 308 horsepower and an absolutely crushing 369 lb-ft of torque, which the Tacoma can’t touch at all.

In addition, the Chevy Colorado’s towing capacities are superior. Trailering capacity on the Chevy Colorado is a hefty 7,700 lbs, which stomps the Toyota Tacoma capacity of 6,800 lbs by almost a half-ton.

Add in that the Chevy Colorado can net up to a total of 30 mpg highway and 20 mpg city, and you’ve got a truck that’s not only stronger, but beats the Toyota Tacoma in fuel efficiency by almost ten whole MPG!

See for Yourself!

Still not convinced? That means you need to come in to Scott Chevrolet for the test drive that will make all the difference. We provide our customers with a completely clean, socially-distanced experience for all used and new Chevy trucks, so you can focus on the test drive.

What’s one thing everyone loves more than finding the best Chevy vehicle for sale? Getting it for less with incredible Chevrolet lease deals from your friends at Scott Chevrolet! Today, we want to tell you about where to look for lease deals with us, and why leasing can be a good move for your next Chevrolet purchase.

Why Lease?

The leasing option is ideal for many types of buyers. For those who love to have the newest, best vehicles on the market, getting a lease on a Chevy is an ideal way to make that happen. Unlike with financing a vehicle and buying it outright, a lease allows you to drive a new car for a period of 1-3 years, and then return it to the dealer, whereupon you can lease another new vehicle, complete with all the newest features and technology.

Leasing is also more affordable in comparison to buying.

Current Chevy Lease Deals

We’re always figuring out the best deals for our customers to save the most on a new Chevrolet lease, and as such, our specials page is constantly being updated to provide the best deals. Since they are being updated regularly, be sure to check back if you don’t see something that meets your needs right away. You can contact us to learn more about our current Chevrolet lease offers and inquire about specific details.

In fact, we might end up being able to deliver a personalized leasing deal just for you!

We can’t wait to get you behind the wheel of a new Chevy car, truck, or SUV. Check out our inventory online or in person, then talk to a Chevrolet financing professional to make your dream lease come true.
