Choosing the perfect vehicle for your family is a big decision. You need something that balances safety, space, and technology without breaking the bank. At Bill Cram Chevrolet, we get asked one question more than any other: “Is the Chevy Equinox actually good for families?”

The short answer? Absolutely. But let’s dive into the details of why this SUV is the “Cramtastic” choice for your driveway.


1. Safety That Moves With You

When you have precious cargo, safety isn’t optional. The Equinox comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist, a suite of advanced features designed to keep you out of harm’s way.

  • Automatic Emergency Braking: Helps avoid or reduce the severity of front-end collisions.
  • Teen Driver Technology: A lifesaver for parents of new drivers, allowing you to set speed alerts and volume limits and view an in-vehicle “report card.”

2. Room to Breathe (and Pack)

Don’t let the “compact” label fool you. The Equinox is masterfully engineered to maximize interior space.

  • Rear Legroom: With nearly 40 inches of rear legroom, even tall teenagers won’t feel cramped.
  • Cargo Versatility: The 60/40 split-bench seats fold flat to give you up to 63.9 cubic feet of storage—perfect for grocery hauls, sports gear, or camping at Seneca Lake.

3. Built for the Finger Lakes: The Winter Edge

Living in Waterloo and Geneva means dealing with unpredictable New York winters. While other SUVs struggle, the Equinox is built to handle the “lake effect” snow. Here is how it beats the competition when the temperature drops:

Confidence on Sleet and Slush

The Equinox offers an Available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system that constantly monitors all four wheels. It automatically shifts power to the wheels with the most grip, helping you pull away safely from icy intersections on Routes 5 & 20.

The “Warm Cabin” Advantage

Forget scraping ice while you shiver. With Remote Start (accessible via your key fob or the myChevrolet app), you can fire up the engine from your kitchen. The Equinox is smart enough to activate the Heated Front Seats and Heated Steering Wheel automatically if it’s cold enough outside.

Standard Heated Wiper Park

Ever have your wipers freeze to the windshield during a storm? The Equinox features Heated Wiper Park grids that melt ice at the base of the blades, ensuring you have a clear view of the road the moment you shift into drive.


4. How It Beats the Competition

The SUV market is crowded, but the Equinox stands out by offering more standard tech and better value than big names like the Toyota RAV4 or Honda CR-V.

The Verdict: Is it right for you?

The Chevrolet Equinox hits the “sweet spot.” It’s small enough to maneuver easily through downtown Geneva but rugged enough to handle a February blizzard in Waterloo. It’s a reliable, high-tech partner for your family’s daily adventures.

July 22nd

Good morning, Finger Lakes! It’s Tuesday, July 22nd, and the dog days of summer are definitely upon us. While we love the sunshine and all the outdoor activities our beautiful region offers, we’re also experiencing that classic late-July humidity here in Waterloo.

Did you know that on average, July in Waterloo brings around 65-66% relative humidity, with daily highs often reaching into the mid-80s? This warm, moist air can actually have an impact on your vehicle, and here at Bill Cram Chevrolet, we want to make sure your ride stays in top shape, no matter what the weather brings.

The Hidden Impact of Humidity on Your Car:

While intense heat gets a lot of attention, humidity can also contribute to wear and tear on your vehicle:

  • Brakes: Moisture in the air can sometimes lead to minor surface rust on brake rotors, especially if your car sits for a bit. While usually harmless and quickly “wiped off” with a few stops, it’s a good reminder to ensure your brake fluid isn’t absorbing excess moisture, which can degrade its performance over time.
  • A/C System: Your air conditioning unit works harder in humid conditions to not only cool the air but also to dehumidify it. This increased workload can put more strain on the system’s components.
  • Electrical Systems: While modern cars are well-sealed, prolonged exposure to high humidity can, in rare cases, contribute to corrosion in electrical connections over time.
  • Interior Concerns: Humidity can lead to that “muggy” feeling inside your car. Ensuring your cabin air filter is clean helps maintain good airflow and reduce the potential for musty odors or even mold growth in your ventilation system.

Your Mid-July Car Care Checklist:

With these humid conditions in mind, here are a few things to consider for your Chevrolet:

  1. A/C System Performance: If your A/C isn’t blowing as cold or as strongly as it should, or if you notice a musty smell, it’s time for a check-up. Our technicians can inspect your system, check refrigerant levels, and ensure proper airflow.
  2. Fluid Levels & Quality: Pay attention to your brake fluid. If it hasn’t been flushed in a while, it might be a good idea to discuss it with our service team, especially if you drive in consistently humid climates.
  3. Tire Pressure: Always important! Temperature changes (and hot pavement) can affect tire pressure, so a quick monthly check is essential.
  4. Wiper Blades: Heavy summer downpours often accompany humidity. Make sure your wiper blades are in good condition for clear visibility.
  5. Cabin Air Filter: A clean cabin air filter not only improves air quality inside your car but also helps your A/C system operate more efficiently, which is great for combating humidity.

Ready for Anything with a “Cramtastic” Deal!

Whether you need a quick service check to prepare for the rest of summer’s humidity or you’re thinking about upgrading to a vehicle that handles all weather conditions with ease, Bill Cram Chevrolet is here for you.

Our inventory of new 2025 Chevrolet models is arriving, showcasing cutting-edge features and technology built to deliver comfort and reliability.

Happy Thursday, Finger Lakes! Today, July 10th, we’re thrilled to shine a spotlight on an exciting addition to the Chevrolet lineup that’s making waves across the country: the all-electric Chevrolet Equinox EV!

For years, the gas-powered Equinox has been a beloved choice for families and commuters in Seneca Falls, Waterloo, Geneva and beyond, known for its versatility and comfort. Now, Chevrolet has taken that winning formula and propelled it into the future, offering a truly remarkable electric SUV that’s perfect for navigating our local roads and beyond.

Why the Equinox EV is a Game Changer for the Finger Lakes:

The 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV is designed to make the transition to electric driving seamless and incredibly appealing. Here’s what makes it so exciting:

  • Impressive Range: Forget range anxiety! The 2025 Equinox EV offers an EPA-estimated range of up to 319 miles on a full charge with Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) models. That’s more than enough to handle your daily commute, weekend trips around the Finger Lakes, and even longer road trips without a worry. All-Wheel Drive (AWD) models also offer a competitive estimated range of up to 307 miles.
  • Sleek, Modern Design: The Equinox EV boasts a fresh, futuristic design that turns heads. From its clean lines to its sophisticated lighting elements, it looks every bit the modern electric vehicle it is.
  • Spacious & Tech-Forward Interior: Step inside and discover a surprisingly roomy cabin with comfortable seating for five. The centerpiece is a stunning 17.7-inch diagonal infotainment touchscreen with Google built-in compatibility, making navigation, entertainment, and connectivity a breeze.
  • Quick & Responsive Performance: Electric vehicles offer instant torque, and the Equinox EV is no exception. With up to 220 horsepower on FWD models and a powerful 300 horsepower with e-AWD, you’ll experience a smooth, quiet, and responsive drive that’s genuinely enjoyable.
  • Ultium Power: The Equinox EV is built on GM’s innovative Ultium Platform, designed from the ground up for electric vehicles. This means optimized performance, efficiency, and flexibility for future advancements.
  • Charging Made Easy: With DC fast-charging capability, the Equinox EV can gain approximately 70 miles of range in just 10 minutes, making public charging stops quick and convenient. Plus, charging at home overnight with a Level 2 charger ensures you wake up to a full “tank” every day.

Benefits of Driving Electric in New York State!

  • Reduced Running Costs: Say goodbye to gas stations! Electric vehicles are generally cheaper to “fuel” than gasoline cars, especially if you charge at home during off-peak hours. Plus, EVs typically have fewer moving parts, potentially leading to lower maintenance costs.
  • Environmental Impact: Reduce your carbon footprint with zero tailpipe emissions, contributing to cleaner air in our beautiful region.
  • Dedicated HOV Lane Access: In some areas, EV owners with a Clean Pass sticker can use HOV lanes, saving you time on your commute!

Happy Monday, everyone! As we kick off another week in the beautiful Finger Lakes, the July sun is certainly making its presence known. Here at Bill Cram Chevrolet, we’re all about helping you enjoy every moment of summer, and that includes making sure your ride is ready to beat the heat and cruise with confidence.

Today, July 7th, is the perfect day to give your Chevrolet a little extra love, especially with the summer temperatures soaring. After all, a cool car means a cool driver, and that’s exactly what we want for our “Cramily” in Waterloo, Seneca Falls, and beyond!

Today’s Hot Topic: Keeping Your Cool (and Your Car’s!)

You might think hot weather is easy on your car compared to winter, but the truth is, intense heat can put a lot of stress on your vehicle’s systems. Here are a few key areas to focus on as you navigate these sunny July days:

  • A/C System Check-Up: This one’s a no-brainer! Is your air conditioning blowing strong and cold? If not, a struggling A/C can turn a short drive into a sweltering ordeal. Our certified technicians can quickly diagnose and fix any issues, from a simple refrigerant top-off to more complex repairs. Don’t sweat it – let us get you back to frosty comfort!
  • Coolant Levels are Crucial: Your engine generates a lot of heat, and your coolant (antifreeze) is vital for keeping it from overheating. High ambient temperatures mean your cooling system works harder. Check your coolant reservoir, and if it’s low, bring it in. We’ll make sure your system is properly filled and free of leaks.
  • Battery Health in the Heat: Believe it or not, extreme heat can be just as tough on your car’s battery as extreme cold. The heat can accelerate the chemical reactions inside the battery, leading to premature failure. If your battery is nearing its 3-5 year lifespan, or you notice slow starts, have us test it. A proactive battery replacement can prevent being stranded!
  • Tire Pressure & Wear: Hot pavement can affect tire pressure, and properly inflated tires are essential for safety and fuel efficiency. Check your tire pressure regularly and look for any signs of uneven wear. If your treads are looking low, our parts department has a great selection of tires to keep you gripping the road.

Why Choose Bill Cram Chevrolet for Your Summer Service?

Our commitment to “We Want You Happy!” extends far beyond the sales floor.
