A great financial strategy is to get your auto loan pre-authorized so that you can qualify in advance of your trip to the dealer. Here at Lochmandy Motors, we make that option very convenient for you. All you have to do is go to our website and fill out a short form.

Fluids help lubricate our vehicles, keep internal parts from breaking down too fast, and regulate temperature. Without them, our vehicles wouldn’t have as many features as they do today, and they just might not operate, either.

Radiator fluid regulates the temperature of your engine, as its internal parts rotate, revolve, and bounce up and down several thousand times per minute. Be careful to not operate your vehicle when checking it, as it’s pressurized.

There comes a time in every driver’s life when they ask themselves if there is an SUV available that can give you premium interior comforts with the ability to go off-road. The good news is that there is, but you probably already know how well new Jeep models can live up to your expectations with the inclusion of premium audio features, the off-road capability that allows you to pick your driving mode with the Selec-Terrain function, and the available four-wheel drive.

Dodge’s upcoming new color palette didn’t come from a tedious corporate group. Instead, about a dozen people spent an afternoon brainstorming and throwing ideas at a color wall.

“Dodge has this awesome history to pull from with color,” said head of Dodge design, Mark Trostle. “It’s been very successful over the years with names like B5 Blue and Plum Crazy. Whether a customer remembers those from when they were new in the ‘60s and ‘70s, or they’re a new customer today, they love the names.”

Known as High Impact Paint (HIP), Dodge has always been a…

It was in a recent video review of the 2016 Dodge Challenger that Autotrader commentator, Jabari Jones, darn-near lost his mind. He praised nearly every aspect of the pony car; from appearance to performance, Mr. Jones seemed to enjoy it all.

As such, it prompted us at Lochmandy Motors to wonder: might the Challenger elicit a similar reaction from you? Make that determination by witnessing Mr. Jones's experience in the clip below:

In truth, there are no bad apples throughout the Challenger catalog. In our opinion, even the base trim type -- the SXT -- is an absolute beaut.

This past Sunday, Mopar driver Matt Hagan broke out of his slump to claim his first victory of the season at the 36th National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) Southern Nationals at the Atlanta Dragway in Georgia.

Here at Lochmandy Motors, we have love for each and every ride on the roster. To us, they're something like snowflakes: no two are quite the same.

That's not to say that we don't have our favorites, too. There are, of course, exceptions to every rule.

Such is the case when it comes to our sizzling sports coupe, the 2016 Dodge Viper. And in the clip below, Kelley Blue Book Associate Video Editor, Zach Vlasuk, will attempt to provide some context for our claim. Take a moment to hear him out:
