It's About Time!




TRUE XPRESS SERVICE COMES TO DON HEWLETT CHEVROLET BUICK


The dust has been flying for months as we watch our new XPRESS OIL CHANGE PLUS center come out of the ground.  Located off of Westinghouse Road on the Don Hewlett Chevrolet Buick property, our new express service center will provide Oil Changes that are priced right and COMPLETED IN UNDER AN HOUR.  

Most dealerships attempt to force the oil change, maintenance and routine service process through their main service facility.  An oil change and major engine repair are processed the same way.  This results in oil changes and routine maintenance that take too long, are too expensive and don’t respect the customer’s time.  We studied the problem and decided to take a radical approach.  Create a separate department, a separate business if you will, with its own facilities, processes, and employees to focus on nothing but Oil Changes, Maintenance and other Routine Services.  This “separate business” even has its own name XPRESS OIL CHANGE PLUS!  

What sets XPRESS OIL CHANGE PLUS apart is that each oil change INCLUDES a tire rotation, fluid top off, multipoint inspection, and free car wash at no additional charge.  All completed in under an hour.  Oh, and by the way, there is no appointment necessary.   Just swing by.  We will be ready for you.

Our beautiful new facility includes a comfortable waiting lounge with drinks and snacks, a kid’s area and a chance to browse among our collection of antique automobiles.  Our state of the art shop has 12 bays dedicated to nothing but Xpress Oil Changes, Maintenance and other routine services.  These include TIRES, ALIGNMENTS, BRAKES, BATTERIES, AND TRANSMISSION AND COOLANT SERVICES  We also invested in state of the art equipment including a laser tire tread and alignment machine, a computer controlled tire mounting machine, a rapid alignment bay and an express overhead fluid delivery system.  We will also install an automated tire storage carousel allowing us to stock hundreds of tires on site.  Speaking of tires, the GM Tire Price match program allows us to match the competitive pricing of the national discount tire centers.   When it’s time for new tires we can mount and balance them while you wait, accurately reset the sensors, while also giving you the value pricing you expect.

Our slogan, “IT’S ABOUT TIME” really sums up our approach to doing the routine maintenance on your automobile.  We respect your time and know it’s important to you to get it done and get on about your day.  

Along with speed though, it is also important that your car or truck is maintained in a way that will protect its value and give you years of trouble free service.  Xpress Oil Change Plus is part of the Don Hewlett Chevrolet Buick family.  Trained technicians familiar with your automobile and the required General Motors maintenance schedules will perform the service.  We can also provide simple warranty repairs, and remedy many recalls while you wait.  If we do find a problem beyond maintenance items, our full service shop is standing by to get those repairs done as well. 

Stay tuned for our Grand Opening Announcement and some promotions and specials to celebrate this new level of customer service built just for you, our loyal customer base.  Xpress Oil Change Plus.  It’s About Time!

The 2018 Chevy Equinox




Everything you need!


Have you ever wondered what it’s like to have it all? The all-new 2018 Equinox was designed with your needs and wants in mind. It is hard to improve on a good thing but Chevrolet really made it happen.  The Equinox was already a proven winner in the midsized crossover market and the redesigned version has brought a fresh new look with updated technology to a great platform.  The new profile on the 2018 is stunning as it zips around the Texas Hill Country with a sleek new front that screams sporty styling. 

The available “Surround Vision” feature gives you a virtual bird’s-eye view of your vehicle on the available 8-inch diagonal color touch-screen. The system is made up of four cameras – the standard rear vision camera, a forward-looking camera in the front grille and one under each side mirror of the vehicle making parking, changing lanes and backing up easier and safer. Inside, the Equinox receives the latest in Chevrolet MyLink radios with streaming audio, auxilary input and USB ports.  This vehicle is well connected to include the ONSTAR 4G Wifi hotspot, empowering you and your passengers on your drive.

When you have your hands full, the available hands-free gesture liftgate opens with the simple motion of your foot. And inside Equinox, you’ll have all the room you need. The 60/40 split-folding rear seats fold flat to create a generous 63.5 cu. ft. of cargo space.  You can have everything you want!  Visit Don Hewlett Chevrolet today and test drive the all-new 2018 Equinox.

Field of Honor





Don Hewlett Chevrolet Proudly Sponsors the Central Texas Field of Honor®


The Field of Honor, presented by the Rotary Club of Georgetown and sponsored by Don Hewlett Chevrolet Buick will take place during the week of Veterans Day from November 5th to November 12th, 2017.  

The highlight of the week’s event will be the Field of Honor. A truly stunning and emotion-filled display of over 1400 full sized U.S. flags, posted at San Gabriel Park’s activity field; each flag having been purchased by individuals in honor or memory of a veteran, military member, first responder, or their own personal heroes. It is a week to honor and express thanks to all who selflessly serve. It is also a time to educate. Visitors to the field will enjoy a display of all the American flags throughout history, and will be moved by the sections for each branch. Tribute will be paid to all who served especially to those who paid the ultimate price.

The Field of Honor proceeds will benefit local veterans and first responders and their families. This fundraiser will support providing service dogs to veterans with PTSD (or other need that requires a service dog). First responders and their families will also benefit through organizations that support wounded or fallen officers, firefighters, and their families. To learn more about the Field of Honor, view videos of a few of our local hero’s and to see a full schedule of activities, visit the website.

Don Hewlett Chevrolet Buick Raises

$15,000 for Hurricane Harvey Relief


Save an Extra $1,000 in Addition to Existing Rebates Now Through 9/30/17.

Although the impact of one of the most historical disasters in our neighboring cities has spread throughout the country, the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey rests heaviest in the hearts of Texans.

Only a few days after Hurricane Harvey struck Houston, Don Hewlett Chevrolet Buick raised $15,000 to help support displaced dealership employees and their families by hosting a friendly fish fry luncheon.

“[This] speaks volumes about the heart and culture of our dealerships that we all step up to help others at a time like this,” said DHCB COO David Hewlett.

Through the end of the month, Don Hewlett Chevrolet is giving customers in affected counties an extra $1,000 discount in addition to all current rebates.

Additionally, the dealership has established the Texans Helping Texans program in which $100 from the sale of each new vehicle in the month of September will be donated to Hurricane Harvey relief with the goal being to raise $50,000.

Now that's Texans helping Texans and that's Texas True.
