Consumer Reports Top 2010 Cars
March 5, 2010
Consumer Reports names six new models to its annual Top Picks car list for 2010. This year’s list is the most diverse group of Top Picks in over a decade with nine different car brands.
Honda and Toyota have had their spots in the Consumer Reports Top Picks list over the recent years. However, due to the growing competition this year, the Nissan Altima managed to surpass the Honda Accord as the Top Pick for Family Sedan. Which is the first time since 1998 that a Honda model was not selected.
Family Sedan: Nissan Altima. The Altima, ranging around $27K has been a Consumer Reports top-rated family sedan for a few years. With a new year, came a new Altima with improved gas mileage and electonic stability control (ESC) for the first time in all trim lines. A balance of comfort and performance, with the best fuel economy in its class of 26 mpg, secure handling and a comfortable ride makes Nissan Altima your 2010 Family Sedan.
Joining the Nissan Altima, is the Mazda5, Subaru Forester, Volkswagen GTI, Chevrolet Traverse and Silverado, Hyundai Elantra SE, Infiniti G37, Toyota Prius and Lexus LS460L as Consumer Report’ selections for best models of 2010 based on performance, reliability, and safety.
Consumer Reports’ automotive editor, Rick Paul states, “The diversity of this year’s Top Picks reflect how competitve the industry has become. Today’s car buyers have more choices than ever when looking for good all-around cars.”
All Consumer Report’ Top Picks must meet stringent road tests, reliability, and safety requirements. More than 50 individual tests are performed on every vehicle, including evaluations of braking, handling, comfort, convenience, safety, and fuel economy. Each model, this year provides standard ESC and curtain airbags. With more than 280 vehicles evaluated at the Auto Test Center, these are Consumer Reports best of the best.

Chevrolet’s “Kim Kar”
March 1, 2010
Kim Kardashian made Chevy NASCAR debut
Just when you thought you had seen it all, Reality TV star Kim Kardashian appeared on the Mike Bliss’ Sprint Cup Chevy car at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
When race car driver Mike Bliss hit the track for the Shelby Amercian NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway February 28th, his No. 36 Chevrolet (part of Tommy Baldwin Racing Team) sported a pinkish paint scheme that advertised the Kim Kardashian Fragrance.
“I’m excited about heading back to Las Vegas. We had a good run in Fontana and I am itching to get the No. 36 Kim Kardashian Fragrance Chevy out on the track this weekend. Racing at Las Vegas Motor Speedway is tough, but I have had some good runs here and I hope to follow up last week’s effort with another nice performance…” Mike Bliss explains.
Kim Kardashian made an appearance before the Motor Speedway race at Sin City’s Sephora in the Venetian’s Grand Canal Shoppes while the No. 36 Chevy “Kim Kar” was parked outside.
Kardashian on her Chevy partnership stated, “I’m really looking forward to this partnership with Tommy Baldwin Racing and the opportunity to experience the exciting world of NASCAR up close. It’s going to be truly amazing to see our Chevy car out there competing and exposing my new fragrance to millions of racing fans.”
Not only did Kim attend the race to show support for the Tommy Baldwin Racing team, the young socialite had the honor of being the grand marshal. Kim was dressed appropriately, wearing a black and pink jumpsuit and a long, sleek ponytail.
Despite crashing the car during the first half of the race, Bliss was unharmed. Kim showed her support like a true NASCAR fan, “It takes a confident man to wear a pink drivers uniform AKA jumpsuit! LOL go Mike Bliss!”

The system contains the factory specifications on over 1200 motorcycles and compares your frame against that information. This eliminates the human error factor. The MAX-system is the superior solution for quick and precise measurements without dismantling the motorcycle.
If your motorcycle needs to be straightened, we have the most accurate jig available – the “MOTO-JIG”. The Moto-Jig is manufactured by GlobalJig, one of the most experienced and respected companies in the business and was designed to work in conjunction with the mega-M.A.X. System. Unlike other systems that require the motorcycle to be removed from the straightening jig for remeasuring, the design of the Moto-Jig and the mega-M.A.X System allows us to verify the measurements while the motorcycle is still in the jig. This ensures accuracy and saves time – getting you back on the road sooner!
We, here at Hall Cycle Center understand situations occur while on the road and are here to help. Specializing in precision, accuracy, and safety when it comes to your bike, you can trust in us for your bike needs.

1962 Vette on Display at Hall Chevrolet Western Branch
February 24, 2010
Hall Chevrolet Western Branch has a vintage 1962 Corvette Convertible on display in the showroom.
In its original condition with t-tan transmission and all matching numbers, this eye-catcher is Ermine White with black interior. It also comes with not one, but two hardtops; one Black and the other White.
If the 1961 Corvette was good, the 1962 Corvette was even better. With more power and even cleaner looks, it ranks as perhaps the most desirable Corvette between 1957 and 1963. Engine displacement increased from 283ci in 1961 to 327ci for 1962. The 1962 Corvette was faster, handled better, looked handsomer, and was more civilized than any previous Corvette, but retained much of the charm of the original roadster concept.
Come out to Hall Chevrolet Western Branch and lay your eyes on this 1962 Ermine White Corvette Convertible beauty! While your there, make sure to check out the new 2010 Corvette in multiple colors.
Hall Chevrolet Western Branch is located on 3412 Western Branch Blvd Chesapeake, Virginia 23321 http://www.hallchevroletchesapeake.com
