Each year, we pay thousands of dollars in taxes. This year, if you are expecting a decent tax return, you may want to consider choosing to put it towards a new vehicle. Using you tax return as a hefty down payment is a great way to invest in a new or used car or truck….
My wife and I have travel to Stafford Virginia to visit our sons. If we are going to stay for any length of time, we usually make the trip by car. At Thanksgiving if we are going to make the trip we usually do it by air plane. It’s a nine hour drive to go by car…
Does Thanksgiving mean the same in America as it once did? Thanksgiving use to be a time of giving and sharing with friends and family; a time to eat far too much and sit around the fire as a family and watch the Lion’s play (never have figured that out). It was a time to…
It seems that some if not the majority if the economic problems that exist in America today are somewhat self-inflicted. Every time you turn on the T.V., radio, or pick up a paper it is nothing but negative news. I have always been a radio talk show junky, it allows you to listen and not…

Maybe, just maybe, we start making decisions for what is right for our country. We live in the greatest country on earth but we have some problems. We need to work…
In my opinion GM, Ford, and Chrysler have provided great employment opportunities for hundreds of thousands of families for over a century. They have allowed families to live the American dream while enjoying the best benefits and retirement packages ever offered to the American worker. There have been some great times in American automotive manufacturing. …
Have you checked your “inventory” lately? No, not the dealerships inventory…your inventory! A bit of a life-check if you will…a clarification of life’s priorities: God, Family, and McCluskey Chevrolet.
