10 Necessities For You to Cruise in Style

Since we’re offering a complimentary cruise when you buy a 2017 Chevy Cruze this month, we thought we’d help you with your packing list by sharing 10 things we know you will need to make your cruise totally worth it.

1. Bathing Suits

It might seem a little excessive to take multiple bathing suits with you, but, let’s be honest, you’ll most likely wear a bathing suit every day. It’s always good to have a couple of options so you aren’t wearing the same sopping suit every day. Include appropriate cover-ups, hats, and sunglasses.

*NOTE: Most cruise lines also include a formal dinner on board so you will want to plan to take something nice to wear with you. Don’t forget to leave room for your dancing shoes!

2. Sunscreen and Bug Spray

Sunscreen is probably obvious, but make sure you take plenty of it with you. Don’t forget to also pack your bug spray. You night not think about it at first, but if you’re planning on getting off the boat anywhere tropical, you will surely come in contact with some of the local mosquitoes or other pesky insects.

3. Passport

If you’re planning a cruise, you better get your passport in order. It takes between four to six weeks to get your passport once you’ve submitted all your information. If you’re really in a hurry, you can choose to have the process expedited. However, this still takes between two and three weeks and requires you to pay an extra fee. You can learn about the complete process here.

4. Cash

For your own security, you might want to keep your credit cards locked away and just pay in cash. Never carry all your cash with you at once in case of pickpocketers. Keep a reserve stored securely in the safe in your cabin.  

5. Comfy Walking Shoes

You’re not going to want to stay on the ship when you port along your route. So, you’re going to need something better than just a pair of flip-flops when wandering the streets of your destination ports. Many of the streets will be uneven cobblestones which can be hard on your feet and back if you don’t have shoes that are good for walking. Teva and Chaco brand sandals are more and more popular, especially for cruising. They are also great for hiking.

6. Camera

Sometimes the best memories you will have are the ones that you will capture while you are enjoying your trip. Be sure you have a camera that will capture every moment. Many phones these days rival some of the best cameras, but we suggest using an alternative so you’re not always on your phone. You might even consider a GoPro®.

7. Power Strip

Think about all the things you will take with you. How many of those things will need to be charged? A phone, a camera, a tablet, laptop, digital reader, among other things—and that’s just for you. And how many outlets are usually found in your cabin? One, maybe two? Save some room for a power strip. This will triple—even quadruple—your ability to charge all your electronic accessories. Trust us. This is probably the best suggestion on this list.

8. Books and/or Magazines

You don’t want to be on your phone the entire time you’re enjoying the beauty of tropical paradise. Consider leaving your phone locked up in your cabin as much as possible. Make this the opportunity to finally read that book that you bought because it was number one on the New York Times Best Seller List. Dig out your old iPod and fill it with a couple of playlists that you can enjoy. Not a big novel reader? That’s okay! Stock up on your favorite magazines and get caught up on your pop culture while you tan on the deck.

9. Motion Sickness Remedy

There are a lot of different products on the market for combating motion sickness. Whether it’s pills or wrist bands you prefer, make sure you have them with you.

10. Travel Buddy

No trip is nearly as fun without someone to take it with. Make those memories count by bringing along the ones you love the most.

When you get home, you will be able to cruise every day in your own Cruze! Take advantage of this deal before it’s gone. Check out our website for more information or stop in for a test drive at Larry H. Miller Chevrolet Murray. We’d love to put you behind the wheel of a new car and set you up for the vacation of a lifetime!

2017 Chevy Silverado

If you’re looking for the best, there’s no need to go any further than the 2017 Chevy Silverado. Named Best in Class for Fuel Economy and Horsepower, this truck gives you the best features without leaving a huge dent in your wallet. Plus, with 4G LTE Wi-Fi capabilities provided by OnStar, all the comforts of home and office will go with you anywhere life takes you.

In any job that must be done, it is important to have the right equipment to do it correctly. The high-strength bed of the Silverado is meant to withstand the work that you put it through. Other pickups have aluminum beds that are more likely to be punctured or dented, but the Silverado will stand up to anything with ease with its roll-formed steel pickup box floor. With these features and more, durability is no question for this truck.

Have we mentioned the towing capability? With an available class-leading towing max of 12,500 lbs., there is almost nothing this truck can’t tug along behind it.

Have we checked off all your boxes? Well, let’s move inside for some of the unexpected features available with the Silverado. Every inch of the interior is designed with three things in mind: space, comfort, and convenience. From the triple-seal inlaid doors to block out street sounds, to the convenience steering wheel controls that allow you to manipulate your phone and radio, you never have to worry about distracted driving. You are always connected with Chevrolet MyLink and wireless charging.

Have a less-than-responsible teen driver who might like to use the truck for weekends? Chevy has thought of that as well. With features that include audio mute until front seat occupants are buckled and automatically tuning safety features, you never have to worry that your teens aren’t safe in the driver’s seat.

It’s no wonder that the Chevy Silverado is touted as one of the most dependable vehicles in its class. And you too can drive the most dependable truck on the road by coming into Larry H. Miller Chevrolet Murray and test driving one for yourself.

9 Tips to Spring Clean Your Chevy Today

Spring is here and that means it's time to wash away all the grime that's built up on your vehicle over the long winter months. While it might be temping to just take your car through the car wash and call it done, here are some simple tips to give your car a thorough spring cleaning.

Ditch the debris  

Old receipts, crumpled up napkins from take-out and empty bottles have a knack for collecting in cars. Especially during the cold winter months when you're rushing inside to get out of the snow. A good first step to spring cleaning is to gather up all these items and put them in the trash. From there, you can easily vacuum out your vehicle and appreciate how much better your car looks already!

Spruce up the upholstery  

If you have leather seats, wiping them down with a damp cloth is a great and easy way to clean the upholstery. Looking to do more to improve your leather seats? Follow these steps to keep your leather seats in prime condition. If you have cloth seats, here are some tips to remove stains.

Do away with dust

Wipe down your console and dashboard with a damp rag and get rid of all the dust collecting there. You'll be shocked how dirty your rag will get and your sinuses will thank you.

Elevate the exterior

Give your car a good scrub and get rid of all the salt and grime that has built up over the winter months. It's also a good time to a coat of wax before the warmer summer months are upon us.

Replace windshield wipers 

You know what they say, April showers bring May flowers. Replace your windshield wipers so you're ready for the changing season!

Wash the windows  

Now that the weather is warmer you can finally get rid of those smug marks on your windows. Clean the inside and outside of each window and your side mirrors with window cleaner and shine with a dry towel.

Tackle the trunk

Dive into the trunk and clean out any trash. It's a good time to check the condition of your spare tire and emergency kit.

Watch the wheels 

Make sure your tires are in good condition and have proper air pressure. If you had snow tires on, now is a good time to take them off and put on all-weather tires. We currently offer a 30-day tire price match or a wheel alignment special you can take advantage of!

Under the hood

Make sure leaves or debris aren't collecting under your vehicle's hood. If you're concerned about your engine, feel free to schedule a service appointment and one of our trained technicians would be happy to advise you.

 Follow these steps and take an afternoon to spring clean your car. Let us know if you'd like our assistance to make sure your vehicle is the best condition! Visit our dealership located at 5500 S State Street Murray UT 84107 or give us a call at (844) 884-3796.
