A person’s car is a reflection of themselves. People make a lot of decisions when buying a new car: stick or automatic, truck, or car, base model or luxury package. The most hotly debated decision seems to be the simplest: color. Car color is often the first thing that attracts a driver and the first thing their friends comment on. Join us for a look at the top ten most popular car colors of...

It’s been three years since the Chevy Malibu was last updated. While we liked that model, we were excited by rumors that the ninth generation would expand the safety and entertainment suite, and there were some of our taller members who wished for a little more legroom. Chevy did not disappoint us. They stretched the wheelbase an extra four inches, giving passengers the legroom of a full-sized...

Earlier this month, General Motors announced a new partnership with the popular ride-sharing company Lyft. The two corporations are pooling their resources to provide a seamless, reliable network of drivers across the United States. Lyft is at the leading edge of a revolution in on-demand transportation. Their drivers take on short trips within a set geographical region, like taxi cabs, but...

The first Chevy Cruze was everything people said a compact car couldn’t be: chic, strong, and comfortable. When Chevy decided to give it an update for 2016, expectations were pretty high. Now that Heidebreicht finally has our hands on the second generation, we can safely say we haven’t been let down. This Cruze is even more fun and functional than its older brother. The biggest change is the...

As the year begins, join the staff at Heidebreicht for a look back at some of our favorites. Everyone with a television remembers...

We’ve all heard the statistics on driving under the influence of alcohol. It’s bad news. Every day 28 Americans die as a result of drunk driving, whether they were in the car or just in the wrong place. That’s over ten thousand people. The number of injuries caused is twenty times that number. Alcohol-related accidents are worse during the holidays, with inclement weather, increased...

Last month at the NTEA work truck show, General Motors announced that it will expand its “box delete” option to all truck classifications in its fleet. As of publication, GM is the only company to offer this option throughout its line of trucks. For the uninitiated, the “box” refers to the bed of the truck. In a vehicle with the box delete option, the box, rear bumper, and spare tire...

Chevy and NASCAR go together so naturally that it’s hard to imagine one without the other. In fact, Chevrolet may never have been founded if it were for racing. It was the racing car Louis Chevrolet helped build for his brother, Arthur, in mid-1911 for the very first Indianapolis 500 that caught the eye of entrepreneur William Durant. Durant was the founder of GM, though at that point he...

No matter what you celebrate this season, traditions are what make it special. Everyone loves gift giving and travel, but it’s the little things that really light our hearts.

At Heidebreicht, we have our own set of traditions that we look forward to all year long. Because...
