Commercial Auto Dealers

When you visit your GMC new truck dealers next year, you’re going to notice something different. Currently, GMC new truck dealers have several fuel-efficient SUVs and trucks for you to choose from along with other favorites that have not been changed. But in 2009, these new truck dealers are going to get a full line of large yet efficient vehicles to add to their inventory.

General Motors is ready to introduce an efficient alternative to its largest vehicles. That means for the 2009 model year, you can expect to find redesigned and reengineered Tahoes, Silverados, Sierras, Yukons and even Cadillac Escalades with the latest in gas-saving technology.

While other car manufacturers are trying to make their cars smaller in order to be more efficient, GM is feverishly working on giving its customers what they want – bigger cars with more efficiency. I don’t know about you, but I certainly need more room than what a Prius or some other compact car offers. Otherwise, my knees would be touching my chin as I drive.

That’s one thing GM is trying to avoid. One of the world’s largest automakers is keeping the large vehicles and simply making them more fuel-efficient. Some of these models have even been equipped with hybrid technology to bring more customers to a local GMC dealer when they want size and efficiency. Hopefully the trend will continue even after the gas crisis is gone.

If you own a Cadillac hearse, you probably belong to a hearse club or you’ve thought about joining a hearse club. With the number of Cadillac hearse club around the world, there’s probably one near you! Many states have either sanctioned or unsanctioned Cadillac hearse clubs, but did you know the United Kingdom has one as well?

The Classic Hearse Register (CHR) in jolly ol’ England was created more than 15 years ago by Dave Salmon. The main purpose of the club was to “collect and record as much information about pre-’80 classic hearses that still survived.” As a result of hearse enthusiasts in the region, the club quickly grew. Before long, local car shows and the car scene in the area included many funeral cars and Cadillac hearses for people to see.

A few years later, Salmon made Paul Harris in charge of the club. Harris’s collection of Princess Hearses and hearses/ambulances made him a prime candidate for the new head of the group. In 2000, Harris passed the bier pin to Mark Josey, another hearse collector. Under Josey’s direction, the club began a website and became much better known in the UK and around the world.

The last change of hands took place in 2003 when Sandra, the current head of the club, took over. She owns a MK1 Granada hearse and her partner, Dean Reader, owns a very rare Austin Ambassador hearse.

To this day, the company continues to grow. They accept owners of hearses, funeral cars, flower cars and any other vehicles that fit into this category. Why not join in the fun and find a hearse club near you?
