New 2015 Chevy Colorado Child Safety Seat Feature

BAY CITY, Mich. – Redefining the midsize truck segment, the all-new Chevrolet Colorado will hit the road and rubble this Fall! But it's not just performance and capability that the Colorado is bringing to the midsize segment. It's taking safety to the next level with the 2015 Chevy Colorado's segment-first child safety seat feature that will better protect your little ones!

While the new truck is equipped with many safety-related firsts for its segment, the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado's patent-pending child safety seat feature is like nothing you have seen before. It's no question that you want to make sure your children are safe when you buckle them into their booster seats, but since manufacturers recommend having at least 80% of that seat base on the seat cushion for optimum protection, that can be hard in extended-cab midsize trucks due to the small rear jump seat. But with Chevy's new safety solution, you won't have to worry one bit! The patent-pending feature allows the rear seat headrest to be removed and inserted into the base of the seat horizontally, making the seat cushion larger and providing additional support to the booster seat.

Chevrolet's new segment-first child safety seat feature coupled with the truck's Driver Alert Package which includes forward collision alert and lane departure warning, will provide you with peace of mind that your passengers are protected when you hit the road in the new Colorado.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible Introduced

BAY CITY, Mich. – Ahead of its expected New York Auto Show Debut, the brand new 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible was introduced, becoming one of the most capable drop-tops on the market! For the first time since 1963, you will be able to enjoy open air driving in the most powerful convertible ever produced by Chevy!

The 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible introduction is particularly significant because until recently, an open roof model wasn’t possible for a vehicle with this much capability. The lightweight structures just weren’t strong enough to handle the supercar’s braking, cornering, and acceleration. In fact, the last time a convertible Z06 was offered from the factory was in 1963! However, thanks to today’s advancements in computer-aided engineering, metallurgy, and manufacturing techniques, the aluminum chassis of the newest Corvette Z06 is 20 percent stiffer than previous models, making a drop-top possible!

Neither performance, power, nor precision are sacrificed with the Z06 convertible either. The only difference between the coupe and convertible models are the provisions for mounting the power folding top which required the seatbelt mounts to be repositioned and the trans and differential coolers to be relocated to the underbody. So pick your preference out of the four colors available for the thick fabric top, three basic configurations: Standard, Carbon Fiber Aero Package, or Z07 Package, and then get ready to make the most of the Z06’s 625 horsepower made possible by the new LT4 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine.

Summer is on the horizon, which means there is no better time to get your hands on a convertible that has what it takes to help you find new roads! Hank Graff Chevy is located at 3636 Wilder Road, Bay City, MI 48706 and we can help you find just the convertible for your needs! For more information on Hank Graff Chevrolet, or for any questions call us at (989) 684-4411 or visit our websites: www.GraffBayCity.com.

Egg-cellent Easter Treat Ideas

BAY CITY, Mich.– Do you hear that? It's the Easter Bunny hopping his way into town! Easter is just around the corner, which means it's time to get festive! Whether you like to go all out with decorations or prefer to keep it low key with a few Egg-cellent Easter Treat Ideas, these recipes are sure to be a hit with all your family and friends! The best part is that all of these recipes are so easy, you don't really even need directions!

Egg-cellent Easter Treat Ideas

Chocolate Dipped Peeps
You'll need:
1-2 packages of Peeps
1 package white or chocolate candy melts
Sprinkles

Who doesn't love Peeps? They're a classic Easter treat! But have you ever thought about taking them to the next level? Throw your candy melts in a microwave safe bowl and begin to melt them in 30 second increments, stirring in between each session. Once melted, you can begin dipping the bottom half of your Peeps in the chocolate then allow them to set on wax paper. However, if you want to add sprinkles, make sure you add them before the chocolate sets!

Bunny Bait
You'll need:
2 cups pretzels
1 bag popped white popcorn
1 package white melting chocolate
1 bag festive M&M's
2 cups Chex cereal
1 container colored sprinkles

Whether you're trying to get the Easter Bunny's attention or just love a great sweet and salty snack, Bunny Bait is for you, and it's super easy to mix up! All you have to do is spread out your pretzels, popcorn and Chex cereal on a sheet of parchment paper and then drizzle them with the melted chocolate, making sure to mix it all together so the chocolate is evenly distributed. Top with sprinkles and then let it all cool. Once it has cooled, break into pieces and throw it into a big bowl with the M&M's!

Egg Nests
You'll need:
1 package chocolate candy melts
2 cups pretzel sticks, broken up
Spring M&M's or speckled eggs

What's better than the springtime sound of birds chirping? This spring treat channels that positive feeling! Use the 30 second interval microwave method mentioned above (or a double broiler if you want to get fancy) to melt your chocolate. Then stir in your broken up pretzels, evenly coating them all. Spread out some parchment paper and begin to form little nests out of the chocolate-covered pretzels. Once they have completely set, top with your "eggs"!

Chocolate Dipped Rice Krispie Treat Eggs
You'll need:
6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
10oz mini marshmallows
1/4 cup butter
1 bag chocolate candy melts
Sprinkles
Egg-shaped cookie cutter

Last but not least, if ooey-gooey sweetness is your weakness, then don't waste another minute before mixing up these Easter eggs! Make a batch of Rice Krispie Treats and then go to town with your cookie cutter! Then you can either use some of your leftover melted chocolate from above, or melt some more to begin dipping the eggs half way, or all the way if you're feeling crazy. Top with sprinkles and you've got a festive treat on your hands!

We love to get in the spirit every time a holiday rolls around! What are your favorite Easter treats, or what would you like to see us make for the next holiday? Hank Graff Chevy is located at 3636 Wilder Road, Bay City, MI 48706.
