August 26, 2010
Hall Chevrolet Western Branch Donates More Than $3,300 in Cash and Sports Equipment to Churchland Little League
Hall Chevrolet Western Branch, one of 15 Chevrolet dealers from the Norfolk area that partnered with local youth baseball leagues for the 2010 baseball season, raised nearly $49,500 in total donations from the dealership and private parties. In addition to monetary support, Hall Chevrolet Western Branch provided Churchland Little League with equipment donations, an opportunity to raise and keep up to $10,000 through a unique fundraiser, and participation in a baseball clinic led by Ripken Baseball.
“Chevrolet has a long history with baseball and we’re glad we were able to bring that commitment to our youth leagues in Chesapeake where our customers and their families live, work, and play,” said Steve Havens General Manager for Hall Chevrolet Western Branch. “The instructional clinic was the highlight of the season for many of the kids. They had a blast and, frankly, we did too.”
Hall Chevrolet Western Branch partnered with the Churchland Little League because of their proximity to the dealership. Equipment donated by Hall Chevrolet Western Branch included equipment bags, ball buckets, coach’s clipboards and t-shirts. In addition, the dealership helped donate either a Chevy Malibu or a Chevy Equinox to be used as a fundraiser by the league. The winner of the fundraiser got to choose one of the two vehicles.
“We are delighted to be involved with the American tradition of youth baseball,” said Havens. “Sponsoring Churchland Little League gave us the opportunity to illustrate our commitment to the youth and families in Chesapeake and we’re glad to have achieved such positive outcome for the community.”
In 2010, more than 980 Chevrolet dealers participated in Chevy Youth Baseball and helped raise more than $3 million for youth baseball programs across the USA. Now in its fifth year, more than $11 million has been contributed to youth baseball in the communities where Chevrolet’s customers live, work, and play.

Focal point in the Plaza area will be the “Water World Plaza Stage” featuring emerging new stars Easton Corbin, Steel Magnolia and Josh Thompson. The tour extravaganza will open each day at 4:00pm with music starting at 5:00pm. In addition to the music stage there will be multiple water-themed activities – including a Chevy H20 FLW fishing simulator, dunking booth, Hope Through Healing Hands’ campaign booth, and more. 
Chevy will be providing a Corvette driving simulator for concert goers to test the latest Corvette ZR1 series as well as their individual driving and racing skills against Paisley himself. “If they can beat me, they can meet me,” laughs Paisley.
The tour will kick off May 21-22 in none other than Virginia Beach, VA and Washington, D.C. Live Nation is the national tour promoter. Tickets went on sales March 12 at LiveNation.com

2010 Mazda3 4-Door (33 MPG HWY) starting at $16,045
In this economy, gas mileage is just one thing on everyone’s mind when they purchase a car. Smart purchases mean resale down the road which is why we are proud that the Mazda3 has won the ALG 2010 Residual Value Award. When you buy this car you are guaranteed it will retain a higher percentage of its original price than any of its competitors after a three-year-period. Also, did we forget to mention that the price for this car is only $16,045 to begin with? It’s the stress free car buyer’s dream come true.
2010 Dodge Caliber (31 MPG HWY) starting at $17,090
The Caliber’s got your back at the pump. When it comes to sporty vehicles, it’s reassuring to know hugging turns isn’t burning a hole in your wallet at the pump. Usually great gas mileage means a smaller car and less storage, not in this car. Fold-flat seating and second-row reclining seats make transporting easy. Let’s not exaggerate though, it’s still a “small car;” Dodge just made its storage bigger than others its size. Start packing and get moving.
2010 Jeep Patriot (29 MPG HWY) starting at $18,425
The Patriot boosts more than just its name as Best-in-class EPA estimated 4WD highway MPG; it also wins Five Stars for its side crash tests. Safety and performance make this outdoor scavenger a must for summer travel. Take the family camping in the mountains without worrying about running out of gas on some spooky winding road. If you really want to be green, get the Optic Green Metallic color. If that bright green is too much get the Natural Green Pearl.
2010 Honda Insight (43 MPG HWY) starting at $19,800
The aerodynamic shape helps this car get the highest MPG on this list. The modern and sleek design isn’t the only thing making this new model fly off the lot. Remember, even a hybrid has its roots and this is still a Honda. True to form you will spend as much time in the passing lane as you do not filling up your tank. Make economy a contest, watch your eco meter adjust as you switch into ECON mode then power out of the mode to race away. It’s fun having so much control over your vehicle. Come have some fun!
2010 Chrysler Sebring (30 MPG HWY) starting at $20,860
The slogan says “Make a Long Distance Relationship” and that is exactly what this car develops with its owner. This car is a giver. With the UCONNECT system, Chrysler allows drivers to stay connected to your friends, family or business while in the car. The feature allows passengers to surf the web, check email, play games online, etc through its 3G broadband internet in addition to navigation, phone, and of course satellite radio or your iPod through its “eyes on the road.” Technology, safety, dependability and price make this car a green pick.
2010 Volkswagen Golf TDI (42 MPG HWY) starting at $22,354
When you purchase a Volkswagen you want to own the road. You are creative, different, adventurous, and above all, love your car. You should feel the same way at the pump, why should your car run on standard gasoline, diesel is better for your car and more efficient.

Find your new lovable sporty TDI model now, available also for the Jetta, SportWagon, or Touareg.

2010 Buick Lacrosse CXS (27 MPG HWY) starting at $33,015
Although the Buick is priced above the other fuel efficient vehicles on this list, it is priced higher for a reason. Its V6 engine, perforated leather appointed 8-way seating, 18” chrome plated wheels and a Harmon/Kardon 11-speaker with USB port should be enough to spell out luxury. It’s made the green list because true to its word, it gets 27 MPG. For a luxurious ride that doesn’t payout at the pump, its love at first site. Step inside and see for yourself.
2010 Chevy Camaro Coupe
February 23, 2010
The 2010 Chevy Camaro Coupe is back! After taking a hiatus from production, the car that stole the car enthusiast’s heart from 1967 until 2002 is back in 2010 and looking better than ever before. After its debut in Michael Bay’s film “Transformers” as Bumblebee, the car is finally getting back to the road where it belongs.
The new Camaro remains sporty, fast and affordable. Its best enhancements are eco-friendly with a fresh design. It is said to get an estimated 29 highway miles per gallon and starts at only $22,680. Choose from a V6 or V8, an assortment of colors, accents, stripes, and several other packages that are available.
It’s a great looking car, and is great speed or for everyday use. You can go onto the Chevrolet website and create your own Camaro with a choice from the LS, 1LT, 2LT, 1SS and 2SS models, or pick from one of the pre-personalized Camaros already built and delivered to Heritage Chevy. For more information come ask the experts at Heritage Chevy-Buick in Owings Mills, Maryland.
Chevy Reintroduces the Camaro. Better than ever before.
February 24, 2009
As it was then, so it is now. The Camaro, born more than 40 years ago as Chevrolet’s reply to the Ford Mustang, is coming out of retirement (since 2002) for a new fight with the namesake ponycar.
As expected, the Camaro will be available in LS, LT and SS guise. The LS and LT models will make do with a 3.6L V6- with either a six-speed automatic or manual transmission – and will produce 300 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. Despite having more power than the V6 versions of the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger, the V6-powered cars will return 26 mpg on the highway.
Both the LS and LT models will ride on GM’s FE2 suspension. An RS appearance package will be available on LT model, and will include HID headlamps with an integrated halo ring feature, spoiler, specific tail lamps and 20-inch wheels.
With four-wheel independent and Stabili-Trak stability control standard, the Camaro will tip the scales at about 3,700 pounds, but is said to have a near ideal 52/48 weight distribution.
Although the V6 models will do battle with low-end Mustangs and Challengers, a turbocharged four-cylinder is still not out of the question. The automaker hopes to sell as many as 100,000 units annually.
Overall, the body shape looks very similar to the Camaro Concept. GM has added a B-pillar to the Camaro’s body structure for added strength. Otherwise, the car is virtually unchanged from the concept, as GM has promised.

2008 Chevy Orlando Concept
October 10, 2008
The Orlando is a new crossover concept based on the upcoming Chevy Cruze sedan.
Sitting on the same Delta II platform that will underpin the Chevrolet Cruze, the Orlando rides higher and taller. General Motors said it “explores the potential of combining the versatility attributes of a sport utility, a family van and a wagon in a single execution.” We think it looks quite a bit like a 2008 Dodge Caliber, particularly in its C-pillars and its exaggerated fender flares.

2008 Chevy Corvette Coupe
October 10, 2008
If you just want a fast car yet don’t want to spend a ton of money, the 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z51 makes a lot of sense.
It’s pretty amazing how far the Corvette has come in the past fifty years. The current, sixth-generation ‘Vette now gives you 430 horsepower, endless torque, better steering feel, and a better chassis than any Corvette in history, and enough rock-solid durability to drive to Africa and back. It’s a pretty far cry from the days of ladder frames and three-speed automatics.
