The 2015 Muscle Car That Offers It All!!!

Are you going to be looking for a muscle car that offers it all in 2015?! Check this out! The 2015 Dodge Challenger Hellcat!! This will probably be my favorite muscle car available, not that I will ever be able to afford it! There are many things to look forward to! The supercharged 6.2L V8 Hellcat engine! To make this thing a little more powerful, SRT has removed the driver’s side parking lamp to install a Air Catcher cold-air intake, to help deliver “class-by-itself” torque!! Vroom, baby!

Choose between the 6-speed manual transmission or the 8-speed automatic! My vote is the 6-speed manual!! This Hell cat also spent 35% more time in the wind tunnel to achieve maximum aerodynamics!! Pretty impressive!

Equipped with some sweet looking 20″ Alloy wheels, the wheel wells had to be trimmed slightly to make room! The interior comes equipped with amazing features and top grade material! Luxury meets sport!

Finally, with 125 different potential configurations, you can make the Hell cat yours!! Get yours today!! You won’t regret it, that I CAN promise!!

Heres an overview!

The Redesigned 2015 Chrysler 200!!!

Hey everyone, its been a minute since I last wrote a blog but today I’m get right down to business! The 2015 Chrysler 200 has got to be my favorite mid-sized sedan on the market right now!  A HUGE upgrade from its previous 2014 counterpart, this 2015 model packs a huge punch when it comes to new features, looks and safety! Plus, it comes in AWD!!Model C

Only taking 119 feet to stop when traveling at 60 mph, the 200 is now among the best-stopping mid-size sedans! 10 airbags included driver and passenger knee airbags! Rear Park View Camera with rear cross path detection is available! Especially important since automobiles are still the top leader for child death in the US! Adaptive cruise control with the ability to come to a complete stop, forward collision with auto-braking and park assist ( both parallel and perpendicular) is great step forward for Chrysler’s 200!

Important technology is all in the Uconnect system! The easiest system to use and quickest to learn, this will come equipped with Uconnect Access! Start your car from your phone, lock it, voice-to-text, and more! Never take your eye off the road. Also, equipped with 3 USB ports, two 12V DC adapters, and so much hidden storage, you won’t have the wires all over your vehicle! New Interior

Chrysler uses some interesting design features to maximize space inside the 200. The merging of the center stack on the dashboard and the center console between the seats is more effective here than in other cars where this trick has been employed (think Lincoln MKZ) largely due to the functionality of the shifter and location of the electronic parking brake button, both of which are quite intuitive.

The unusual packaging also creates a “bridge” over the footwell area, which functions as usable storage. There’s a clever pass-through for a charging cord and the two-section center console offers more space than most.

Equipped optionally with the leather-trimmed/vented sport seat option ($995), which adds leather interior appointments, heated and ventilated front seats and a six-way power-adjustable passenger seat. A heated steering wheel is optional on all but the base trim.

 Stop into Woody’s Automotive Group today! We have several and are ready for you to see them!

The Safety of Back Up Cameras!!

In April 2014 the NHTSA enacted the backup camera mandate. By 2054 when all vehicles will have backup cameras, it is estimated that 58+ lives will be saved every year. Some new vehicles have some very cool safety features. Let’s look at the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado as an example:

1. The rear vision camera system has dynamic guide lines to allow the driver, when in reverse, to view objects directly behind the vehicle.

2. The safety alert driver seat warns the driver of potential traffic danger using directional vibration pulses from the seat cushion.

3. Lane departure warning alerts the driver when the truck drifts over a lane line when traveling at least 35 MPH.

Wouldn’t it be nice if all vehicles came standard with these safety features? To see some of these features in person, just come in and any of the Woody’s Automotive Group sales team will gladly show you!

Just Raming Around!

Rain, rain, go away; Come again another day. Like tomorrow! Let’s face it. Rain can be a ton of fun, especially if it rains for a couple of days in a row! If you are following my thinking, you will end up with the conclusion of mudding! Who doesn’t love a little mudding? I have the perfect mudding vehicle for you! Actually, it’s useful for many things, but mudding is the main one! The 2014 Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn! Equipped with the stunning 5.7L V8 Hemi engine, and Class-Exclusive Active Four-Corner Air Suspension, this truck will power through the deepest and thickest mud around! Trust me!

Keep Those Buns Comfortable!

I mean, if there is one thing worse than a long trip, it’s a long trip with an uncomfortable seat! I am sure at some point or another you know exactly what I’m talking about! You wiggle and wiggle only to get semi comfortable but ten minutes later you realize you are never going to get comfortable. It hits you. The seats are too hot or maybe they are too cold. They itch. Too stiff. It’s crazy, the list just keeps going and going and going. Like the energizer bunny. Annoying, right? Well, Jeep has found the solution! They have realized that customers, myself included (because I absolutely hate long trips with comfortable seating), need quality seats. In the new 2014 models, Jeep has equipped these majestical stallions with Natura Leather!

seat-natura-black
 The newly available premium-quality Natura Plus leather is soft and supple and has outstanding breathability that makes the leather more comfortable in both hot and cold weather! Did I mention that its stain resistant, so those rascally kids won’t be a problem any longer.  Plus, this “lazy boy” of a seat can be heated and cooled, so even if you get hot or cold you can fixed it with the push of a button! Genius! You should really do yourself, I mean, butt, a favor and check it out! Woody’s Automotive Group has some! Just sayin’

Fun in the Sun! Cherokee Style!

Hey all you Jeep fans! It’s that time again. Time to talk about the sweet world of Jeeps. You know, the one where life is enjoyable on the road, but mostly off the road! The new redesigned and extremely rewelcomed 2014 Jeep Cherokee blew me away! I must say, I was not expecting it. I mean when I heard that Jeep was bring back the Cherokee, I thought to myself, ” O great, here we go again. They are gonna bring back yet another boxy SUV with the same technology, same safety features, same everything and ask the same price. Boring.” Boy was I wrong.

Front angled view
 When I first sat in this rugged, yet refined SUV, I was pleasently surprised! 8.4″ touchscreen, check. 4X4, check. Leather heated seats and steering, check. Panoramic sunroof, check. Then I really started to explore. 4 iPod ports. Who even needs that many?! A wireless charging pad, genious!  Literally, because I have filled all 4 of those iPod ports and was in a pickle when my phone died. Problem fixed! Dashboard storage was so handy as well as the inside passenger seat storage!  Lets talk exterior and engine for a sec! 9 speed automatic transmission offers an impressive 31 hwy mpg! The amazing Parallel and Perpendicular Park Assist makes my life so much easier, because lets face it, I suck at parking. So thank you Jeep for that. I don’t know about you but rock crawling sounds found and the Cherokee can come equipped with Jeep Active Drive II, perfect for that exact experience! So, I for one am very impressed with the new 2014 Jeep Cherokee and would definitely recommend this SUV to anyone in search of a new midsized Sports Utility Vehicle to go play in this summer! Stop by Woodys Automotive Group and check some out!
