My New Chevy Malibu

I’m so excited to announce that I purchased a new Chevy 2010 Malibu.  Thanks to @GMTexas I have been given the chance to test drive several Chevy vehicles over the past several months.  I drove and fell in love with the Equinox back in February when heading to Blissdom.  I drove the Traverse on my way to visit Erica’s family in July which was the perfect size.  Then for my ten year high school reunion I went in style driving the Camaro RS.  I must say I absolutely love all of the Chevy vehicles and wouldn’t mind owning any of them.

During the month of July the Gotta Love Chevy DFW program had a test drive event locally where they invited people out to drive a brand new Malibu and they received a gift certificate for an one hour massage at Massage Envy.  You might remember the Whrrl story that I shared from my day out with some girlfriends and our experience driving the Malibu.  I just loved it.

Last month I decided it was time to buy a new vehicle.  At first I was sold on the fact of purchasing a Traverse or an Equinox.  I really wanted the third row seat that the Traverse offered yet the Equinox was the same size vehicle that I was used to driving at the time and same expense wise.  While pondering back and forth and being in contact with my local Chevy dealer I just woke up one day and changed my mind.  It dawned on me that T is going to be 16 in three years and the Malibu would be perfect for her.  The back seat of the Malibu fits everyone just as comfortable as the Equinox in width so I felt it was totally doable for my family.  One of my children’s favorite features in the Equinox and Traverse was the DVD player.  That was one feature I didn’t want to lose when purchasing the Malibu so I had them custom install the DVD players in the headrests.  Now everyone is pleased.  My goal was to save some money when purchasing the Malibu over the Equinox or Traverse and pass it down to T in three years.

Favorite Features:

• Smooth Ride {no more top heavy SUV that causes leaning when turning corners}

• DVD Headrests {each headrest has it’s own DVD player which equals 2 movies & 2 happy kids}

• iPod AUX hookup {yeah baby, I now can listen to my iPhone music on the go}

• OnStar {I LOVE this feature, thank goodness for directions}

• Remote Start {I’ve already used it NUMEROUS times in this hot Texas heat}
