New Maryland and Delaware Hyundai Owners Pay $1.49 at the Pump

Hyundai is taking their customers back to when gas was only $1.49 per gallon with their new price-lock promotion. Preston Hyundai serves Maryland and Delaware with an unbeatable selection of Hyundais at great prices and they are proud to be able to offer Hyundai’s new price-lock promotion to their loyal customers.
Hyundai’s new program will supply new customers with a year’s supply of gas at just $1.49 per gallon for regular unleaded gas. Customers will have the option of paying an extra 15 cents per gallon for mid-range fuel or 30 cents extra per gallon for premium.
When a customer purchases any 2009 Hyundai, they have the options of price-lock or they can take rebates and incentives equivalent to the estimated savings on fuel. If price-lock is chosen the customer will enroll online at Hyundai.pricelock.com after the dealer has given them the proper information.
When speaking with John Skalstad, General Manager of Preston Hyundai, he stated, “We are very excited about this new program, Hyundai already offers their assurance program, combined with the price-lock on fuel and their award-winning quality and even more savings with the upcoming CARS act, we don’t know why anyone wouldn’t want to buy a new Hyundai.”
The customer will link a valid Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discovery credit card paired with a special pin that will be used only when purchasing gas. When the customer is done pumping, the receipt will show as the full pump price; however the customer’s credit card bill will show the discounted price. Hyundai’s price-lock site uses the same online security standards banks use, so customer’s information will be safe. Hyundai’s new program will surely get new car shoppers into one of their great new vehicles.

Maryland and Delaware Car Buyers Feel Assured: Hyundai Outscores Toyota and Honda in Initial Quality

Hyundai’s quality is recognized yet again, this time by J.D. Power & Associates, who ranked the Korean automaker the number one brand in initial quality for the non-premium segment. Other automakers included in this segment were brands like Honda, Toyota and Nissan. Hyundai was also ranked fourth in the overall industry, just behind Lexus, Porsche and Cadillac.

J.D. Power & Associates also recognized specific models from the Hyundai brand for top ranks in their respective segments. The all new Genesis was ranked first in the “all new redesigned” segment, creating a tie with Lexus. Elantra placed first as well in the compact car segment, beating out models like Prius, Corolla and Civic, while ranking in the top 10 industry leading models. The Accent ranked 2nd in the sub-compact segment, missing 1st by only one point.

Hyundai dealers like Preston Hyundai in Maryland have been passing on the great news to their customers who travel from all over Maryland and Delaware to purchase their vehicles. Sales Manager of Preston Hyundai, John Skalstad, informs customers about the unsurpassed quality of Hyundai, a statement now backed by many surveys ranking Hyundai at the top.

This award from J.D Power marks the second time in four years that Hyundai has beaten out all other non-premium nameplates.

Cash For Clunkers Bill Passed: Maryland Car Dealer Ready For Sales

The Cash for Clunkers program was approved last Friday thanks to overwhelming dealership support for the bill. Automotive dealerships local to the D.C. metropolitan area and the surrounding areas showed their support by making numerous phone calls to their congressmen urging them to vote for passing the bill.
Congress has allotted 1 billion dollars for the program, which will translate into about 250,000 cash vouchers for trade-in vehicles. The requirements for the cash voucher state that the trade-in vehicle must have a combined MPG of 18 or less and the buyer must purchase a vehicle with 18 mpg or more.
The vehicle purchased must also be brand new and have never been titled, manufactured less than 25 years before date of the trade-in, and have an MSRP of $45,000 or less.
Dealerships under the Preston Automotive Group umbrella have already announced their participation in the new program in hopes to get car buyers in the Maryland and Delaware areas out of their “clunkers.” Vehicles will become available for sale with the cash voucher starting July, 1 2009.The U.S. Department of Transportation will have 30 days to establish a detailed list of rules and regulations for the program.
Brent Durham, spokesperson for Preston Automotive, stated, “The new bill helps out dealerships and more importantly our customers. Someone who has been riding in a 15 year old gas guzzling SUV will now be eligible to get a up to a $4500 trade-in value on a new fuel efficient SUV!”
Vehicles that have been traded in will no longer be available for sale but instead they will be sold to recyclers or crushed.
The program is currently scheduled to be available from July 1, 2009 through October 31, 2009. Some manufacturers are allowing the cash voucher to be used as down payment for new models; Mazda is currently one of them. The Cash for Clunkers site is now in operation and gives details about the program as they become available.

Cash For Clunkers Bill Participating Dealer to be Preston Automotive Group in Maryland

Late afternoon yesterday, Congress began steps to write the Cash For Clunkers Bill into law which would bring good news to Maryland Car Dealer Preston Automotive Group. The Cash For Clunkers Bill is an upcoming law which Democratic law makers hope to add to the Supplemental Appropriations bill conference report.

The final House vote resulted in 298 for the bill and 119 against the passing of the bill. If passed the law would set aside 4 billion dollars towards electronic cash rebates. The cash rebates would only be available to those who trade in a vehicle with estimated MPG ratings of 18 mpg or less. Other details for the rebate state that the trade-in must have been owned and registered for at least one year.

The amount of the rebate would depend on the EPA’s rating on the new car purchased. The max amount of the rebate could be $4500 on new cars granted that the new vehicle is rated at 10 more miles per gallon than their trade-in.

Dealerships across America are getting a jumpstart in order to prepare for the expected burst of sales. Preston Automotive Group serving the greater Maryland and Delaware area represents top brands like Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Nissan, Hyundai and Mazda. They have already began informing their sales and financing staff of the new program.

David Wilson, President of Preston Automotive Group, stated, “Our network of dealerships has begun preparation for the new bill already by staying current with any and all information regarding the program. If and when the bill is passed we plan to be a participating dealer, doing our part to help get our customers into fuel efficient vehicles.”

With fuel efficiency being one of the most influential factors when purchasing new cars, the new Cash for Clunkers Bill would help bring the declining automobile industry out of the slope. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that 625,000 sales alone will be inspired by the bill while those backing the bill hope to see that number reach 1,000,000.

The newly redesigned 370Z is the newest generation of the Z-car following the 350Z. The legendary Z-Cars have always taken their name based upon engine size and the 370Z is no different, delivering a 3.7 liter V-6 engine that puts out 332 horsepower.

Preston Nissan offers a wide selection of the new 370Z at some of the best prices in the Maryland and Delaware area. The Nissan dealer offers all trim styles of the 370Z in a large range of colors. Trim styles can range from the base 370Z all the way up to the unique touring edition. The base model 370Z comes equipped with a manual 6-speed transmission with up shift indicator, high intensity discharge xenon headlights, 18” aluminum wheels and Nissan intelligent key with push button ignition.

The sport package adds a combination of exterior and mechanical modifications. The package replaces the 18” aluminum wheels up to 19” forged alloy wheels while offering a limited slip rear differential, a synchronized rev matching system for smoother down shifting, front chin spoiler, a rear spoiler and Nissan sport brakes.

While the sport package offers the more performance minded modifications, the touring package offers the driver more of the luxuries the sport package does not offer. The touring package comes equipped with leather-appointed power heated seats, a Bose digital audio system, a Bluetooth hands free phone system and a Homelink universal transceiver.

Preston Nissan offers 370Z’s of all trim styles to their customers and is excited about the arrival of the Nismo edition of the Z, available this summer. The Nismo 370Z is the most performance oriented Z-Car that Nissan has to offer. The Nismo will put out 350 horsepower while modifying its suspension for a lower more aggressive look.

Preston Nissan, part of the Preston Automotive Group, is now offering the best deals in the area to its Maryland and Delaware customers. “We’re making some of our best deals ever and we are in the best position to do so since Preston Nissan offers the widest range of models on all Nissans,” says Nissan Sales Manager, Chad Todd.
