There are some days when you just feel the need to get away. You might need to get out of town for a few hours, a few days or maybe even a few weeks. Getting out of the city can help people clear their heads and allow them to relax. One couple from Philadelphia has decided to “get out of town” for a while. They decided to quit their jobs, build a trailer and just drive. They live in the wild and create their own camp each day and they do it all with the help of a 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500. The Chevy Silverado 2500 helps this couple live life in the wild.

Mark Christy and Nives Riddles have chosen to travel through Arizona’s deserts and into the Sierra Nevadas. They are also documenting their journey on their personal blog called Camp by Camp. The both have a passion for the outdoors and they decided to act on it after spending a weekend hiking to the Grand Canyon. They soon after sold everything they owned and bought a small military trailer that they converted into mobile living quarters. Another crucial part of their operation is their 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500. The truck helps them get where they need to go, even though the journey is off the beaten path.

The couple often travels to secluded locations where it would take hours to get back to find help, so its important for them to have a vehicle they can rely on. So far it hasn’t left them stranded or stuck anywhere. They have no real destination in mind, they just travel in the direction they want to go and see where it leads them. They have been on this journey since fall of 2014, and they don’t show any signs of stopping. They are just going to keep going until they don’t want to anymore.

Here at Craig Dunn Motor City, we really admire the Camp by Camp project. If you want to start your own adventure, check out the 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500. This powerful truck can take you wherever you need to go, with everything you need in tow. Whether your adventure lasts a weekend or months, the Silverado is here for you. Schedule a test drive today!

New Awards for 2017 Chevrolet Vehicles

New Enhancements Make Chevy Vehicles Roar

2017 Chevy Performance Parts

With the 2016 SEMA Show, Chevrolet has released a number of performance-enhancing parts that will make the Camaro, Cruze and various Chevy trucks burn even more rubber (in a good way). We’re not sure how many of these 2017 Chevy performance parts will be available here in Manitoba, but we are sure that these or enhancements like them will be available some day. It’s fun to get a preview of them now.

Camaro Performance Enhancement

While the base 2017 Chevy Camaro can burn up the track or the road, adding new 2017 Chevy performance parts can give this great muscle car even more oomph. SS models with the V6 and 2.0-liter engines can be enhanced with parts ranging from a brake upgrade (which features six-piston front calipers and sturdier rotors), a suspension upgrade (with enhanced handling or lowering) and even a new performance air intake.

Chevy Truck Performance Parts for 2017

Both appearance and practical accessories and enhancement will be available for Chevy trucks (including the Silverado and Colorado) in the new year. One of the newest options is a performance exhaust kit. Available with the 5.3-liter engine and 6.2-liter engine, this kit can deliver an extra 10 horsepower or 7 horsepower (respectively). Other available truck accessories will include custom wheels, side steps, bed liners, tonneau covers, and floor liners.

Cruze and Malibu Performance Parts

For those seeking a little more street-level zip for their Chevy sedan, there are also options, like a suspension lowering kit with stiffer springs, an enhance cornering system, and a new front stabilizer that can drop the 2017 Chevy Cruze Hatch 0.4 inches. The Cruze will also be available with a refined air intake and and exhaust system, while the Malibu will also be available with enhancements. The Cruze and Malibu Blue Line Concept cars at SEMA 2016 debuted some of these premium parts.

But what makes the new Silverado the best? Maybe its solid, long-lasting construction, and impressive V8 engine that is certainly up for towing and hauling serious loads. And with cutting edge efficiency technology like direct injection, cylinder deactivation when the truck isn’t loaded or towing, and continuously variable valve timing, this truck also offers the best V8 fuel economy of any pickup with just 10.4 L/100km in 5.3-litre models.

2016 Chevy Colorado vs Silverado vs Silverado HD

What is the difference between a mid-size, full-size, or heavy-duty truck? While the details of that answer may vary widely by brand, generally speaking a heavy duty model is for serious towing, hauling, or work site effort, while a mid-size model offers impressive fuel-efficiency. Full-sized models hold the middle. Keep reading to compare the 2016 Chevy Colorado vs Silverado vs Silverado HD and see which Canadian model in the three-truck Chevy lineup is ideal for you.
