Chevy MomIn May, when Chevy loaned me a Volt for a week, I gave myself the self-proclaimed label of a “Chevy Mom”. At least once a day people would ask me about the Volt and how on Earth I was driving one (they are not even for sale yet in Illinois).

My best response was “I’m a Chevy Mom“.

I drive a Honda Odyssey and a Toyota Prius…but ever since I was introduced to the amazing cars and people at Chevy, in my heart I have become a Chevy Mom.

To me Chevy has become more than a car and a brand. Chevy has become part of my life and part of my community. Being able to test drive shiny new Chevy vehicles is a really fun luxurious experience…but getting to know the women and men behind Chevy has truly been my honor.

Since I’m a self-proclaimed Chevy Mom, I was thrilled when I heard I was going to be able to test drive the Chevy Equinox during my 40 and Fabulous birthday celebration in Palm Springs.

It felt very Hollywood to arrive at my hotel and have a shiny red car waiting for me.

According to the Chevy website, the Equinox gets 32 MPG on the highway, beating the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and Ford Escape Hybrid.

And according to our back seat rider, the back was roomy and comfortable.

Thank You Chevy…

  • I would love to hear more about your experience with the Volt! I got to test drive one last month and I’m seriously considering taking the plunge.
