PA Used Car Dealers Welcome New Little Caesars to the Area

Your local PA used car dealers want to welcome the new Little Caesar’s Pizza establishment to the area. The popular pizza chain offers some of the best carry-out pizza in the industry and the Yeadon, PA location is the most recent addition to the Little Caesar’s family.

Clif D’Mello, a Little Caesar’s franchisee, is proud to make the Philadelphia area the home of his second facility. He reiterates the company’s mission by saying: “I look forward to offering a large, fresh pepperoni pizza that’s ready when my customers are, with no waiting or need to call ahead.” It’s almost like a fast-food restaurant dedicated to pizza!

The grand opening of D’Mello’s second location happened earlier this week at 558 Church Lane in Yeadon. Since it is only a few miles away from Philadelphia, there’s a good chance the sales representatives and other staff members from your local PA used car dealers will frequent the popular pizza chain during the breaks and off-time. Heck, you might even think about bringing them one for getting you such a great deal on a used or certified pre-owned vehicle!

Now you can get a great deal at a local Mercedes-Benz dealer and your lunch without leaving the Philadelphia area. Just don’t eat the pizza in your Benz…it can get quite messy!

Get MB’s New Attention Assist at Pennsylvania Auto Dealers

You Pennsylvania auto dealers want to ensure that you stay safe when you are behind the wheel of a Mercedes-Benz or any other car. That’s why we want to bring your attention to the new Attention Assist System available in upcoming Benz models.

The new Attention Assist System is a supportive feature that closely monitors a driver’s behaviors at all times. When the driver shows fatigue or tiredness, the computer system in the car warns the driver to pay closer attention or take measures to ensure their safety.

If you’ve ever been on a long road trip at night, you know how helpful this is. The nighttime driving and hypnotizing nature of the long road ahead can make a driver sleepy and less attentive than they should be. That’s exactly what the Attention Assist System addresses.

The new system continues the Mercedes-Benz dedication to safety and accident prevention. Other prominent safety features include the Electronic Stability Program and the Brake Assist feature, both of which have already made great strides in reducing traffic accidents and fatalities.

The only drawback to the Attention Assist System is that it won’t be available at Pennsylvania auto dealers on MB models until 2009. Until then, though, visit a local Mercedes-Benz dealer and take advantage of the other models with the latest safety features on the market today!

Mercedes-Benz Dealers Benefit from “Augmented Reality”

Mercedes-Benz dealers in Hong Kong are benefitting from a new campaign from the automaker. The geniuses working for the German automaker have created something called the Mercedes-Benz Ambient Drive and it’s an “interactive campaign that uses video kiosks that display high-definition 3D views of upcoming models.”

With the new campaign, kiosks are set up throughout Hong Kong in places where potential clients tend to frequent. For instance, Hong Kong residents may see a Mercedes-Benz Ambient Drive kiosk at an upscale coffee shop or other places. Putting them in a Mercedes-Benz dealer facility is also ideal so potential buyers can take a test drive before the actual test drive.

The kiosks are basically shaped to look like the front seats in the new B-Class hatchback models available at many Mercedes-Benz dealers in Hong Kong and across the world. Once a potential customer sits in the seat, they can choose from several cards sitting alongside the chair. Each card represents a different 3D display that they can experience and get a better idea of how the car handles and feels.

With the popularity of this campaign, it’s likely going to come to the North American market shortly. Will you be one of the many that experiences the Mercedes-Benz Ambient Drive? I know I will be.

PA Used Car Dealers Say, “Don’t Sell Just Yet!”

Your PA used car dealers want to make sure you make the best financial decisions when it comes to buying or selling a car. During these times of high gas prices and depreciating SUVs, many people want to sell their larger vehicles and get a more efficient car from our PA used car dealers. But that might not be the best decision right now.

We know money is tight for some SUV and truck owners right now. But if you sell your large vehicle and you haven’t owned it very long, you could be losing more money than you’re going to save in the long run. A new study by Consumer Reports revealed that soaring gas prices are not the most expensive aspect of owning a large vehicle. In fact, the biggest cost is depreciation. The amount of depreciation for SUVs and trucks right now is nearly 50 percent. That’s more than double the cost of fuel, which is around 20 percent.

“The first three years of owning a vehicle is the most expensive time,” explains deputy automotive editor at Consumer Reports, Jeff Bartlett. Cars, especially new cars, lose a great deal of value during the first three years.

Right now, the best thing to do is to hold on to that SUV or truck if you’ve purchased it in the last three years. But that doesn’t mean you can’t get a more efficient vehicle at your local Mercedes-Benz dealer for everyday driving. It might not seem like you’re saving money, but waiting to sell that used SUV is often a good idea.

Does Car Color Choice from Your Mercedes-Benz Dealers Make a Difference?

Did you know that the color car you choose when shopping at your Mercedes-Benz dealers could say a lot about your personality? According to a study conducted in Bandon, Oregon earlier this year, the color car you choose is like a “rolling psychological profile.”

The study involved 2,000 American car owners. Here are some of the study’s findings:

Silver – If you tend to choose a silver car, you are probably even-tempered. You are not quick to anger and you generally don’t let too many things bother you.

Bright Colors (Red, Orange, Yellow) – People who chose these colors tend to have extreme mood swings. One minute they are happy-go-lucky, the next minute they are angry and ready to punch someone.

Black – Car buyers who typically choose black generally have few mood swings, but they are more somber than buyers who choose other colors.

The CNW Marketing research firm conducted the study by asking people to describe the way they generally feel towards life. Researchers then found out what color car they drove and made connections based on those findings. Unfortunately, you have to be a subscriber to CNW’s website in order to get more specific information about the study.

Do you think this is going to affect the car you choose the next time you’re at your local Mercedes-Benz dealer? If so, what color do you drive now and what color would you choose? Or do you think this is just a bunch of psychobabble? Let us know your thoughts below.

Your Used PA Auto Dealers Ask: Is Commuting Costing You Money?

Your used Pa auto dealers want to know if you have thought about how much money you’re losing by sitting in traffic each morning on your way to work and each evening on your way home. Several metropolitan cities have done studies to see how much commuters are spending just to get from home to work and back home again. Your used PA auto dealers want to share some of that information with you.

One study that measured this was done in Chicago, a place where congestion has worsened in recent years. In all, the traffic jams and near-gridlock situations are costing businesses and drivers more than $7 billion are year in wasted fuel. That’s a lot of money!

But the congestion isn’t only costing people and companies gas money. The crowded roads make it impossible to predict how long it takes to get to work each day. That costs the company money and it also costs the employees money if they are hourly employees. In the outskirts of Chicago, the congestion is costing employers and commuters an average of just below $900 annually. Within the city of Chicago itself, it’s costing them more than $3,000 each year.

Those numbers are dismal and it’s not much better in metropolitan Philadelphia. But if you’re going to be stuck in traffic for several hours each day, why not be comfortable? Visit your local Mercedes-Benz dealer today and get a great deal on a luxury car. Once you experience the comfort, you won’t mind sitting in traffic for a few hours a day.

Pennsylvania Auto Dealers Excited about HD Tourism

The next time you decide to visit one of your area’s Pennsylvania auto dealers, why not visit the new tourist attraction.

The new Comcast Center opened just a couple months ago in June. But the main feature of this complex is the high-definition LED screen that stands 25 feet tall and has 2,000 square feet of viewing surface. Sources say that the screen has five times the resolution of other HD televisions. Imagine watching your favorite movie on that!

In addition to being a huge screen, it also shows about 1,000 hours of content for 18 hours each day every day. From scenes shot in to cosmos to sports highlights from your favorite Philadelphia team, you can see it all on this big screen. And who knows? You may even see a larger-than-life advertisement for your local Mercedes-Benz dealer, too.

After visiting your Pennsylvania auto dealers, you can find the screen at the northwest corner of Arch Street and 17th Street. The entire Comcast Center is open to the public and visitors appreciate the breathtaking features, including a spectacular fountain, a Winter Garden that stands eight stories high, a “glass curtain” that surrounds the center that helps save energy and, of course, the huge HD screen.

Stop by for this great experience. You’ll be glad you did.

Get the Best with Mercedes-Benz Dealers

You might think that the best in luxury vehicles comes from companies like Rolls Royce and Bentley, but you can also get the best in luxury vehicles at your Mercedes-Benz dealers. The CL550 Coupe, available at many Mercedes-Benz dealers across the country, has a base price of more than $103,000. But it’s well worth the price.

For one thing, the Mercedes CL550 is a pillarless coupe, which is hard to find in today’s new car market. In addition to that, the CL550 draws together many flattering themes of other MB models to create a sort of “super Mercedes” for the most elite and discerning car buyer.

Once behind the wheel, you’ll find a number of luxuries you would only expect from a car like Rolls Royce. Authentic leather comforts you as you look at the wood-covered console. The buttons that control the radio, A/C and other features have a metallic appearance, giving it that finished appearance. The driver’s seat also has 14-way adjustable heated seats for the pinnacle in comfort.

But there’s more about the seats. If you drive a lot, you’ll undoubtedly enjoy lumbar support that deflates and inflates twice each minute. That ensures less back pain and stiffness whether you’re driving to work each morning or taking a road trip across the country.

These and other features are exactly why you should see if there’s a CL550 Coupe available for sale at your local Mercedes-Benz dealer. You won’t buy it with your pocket change, but the price is worth owning one of these premier luxury vehicles.

Your PA Used Car Dealers Say, “Wake Up!”

You can find a wide selection of quality Mercedes-Benz vehicles at your favorite PA used car dealers. But the new feature that Mercedes is putting on some of its newest models won’t be on the lots of the PA used car dealers for another year or two at least. It’s still an exciting new feature to look for soon.

The Attention Assist System is a system of sensors that detects a variety of data to help the driver stay safe behind the wheel. The Attention Assist System detects driver habits, road conditions, vehicle speed and pedal operations. The computer then continuously analyzes the data to make sure the driver is alert at all times.

This would certainly come in handy for me. While I was driving home from a road trip recently, I drove all night save for a couple half-hour naps along the way. But I knew I was dozing off while driving on the highway. But if I had the Attention Assist System, it would’ve alerted me every time my driving habits were abnormal or less than attentive.

According to the researchers at Mercedes-Benz, a driver’s reaction time is cut in half after four hours of continuous driving. That means you are doubling your risk of accident. Unfortunately, you have a responsibility to other drivers so you should always be as alert as possible when you’re driving on the roads.

The feature hasn’t actually hit dealer lots yet, but you can visit your local Mercedes-Benz dealer to find out when you can get a model with the Attention Assist System.
