When it comes to safety, one thing is true for all vehicles. Worn tires are hazardous. Try this simple trick to test whether your tires are performing optimally or are worn and need replacement.
1. Select the area of the tire with the least (most worn) tread. 2. Place a quarter with the top of Washington's head down between the treads of the tire. 3. Check to see if you can see all of Washington's head. If you can see all of Washington's head, the tread is less than 1/8 inch deep and the tire should be replaced. If part of Washington's head is blocked, the tread is over 1/8 inch deep and the tire is okay.

| Product News and Reviews | The ATS....coming soon
The brand new ATS made a fleeting cameo appearance at Pepe Cadillac this week to tempt us...and then it was gone. It was just enough to make us long for September, when the new models roll off the truck.
Designed to compete with the Mercedes C-class and BMW 3 Series, the ATS boasts quick, nimble, fun-to-drive dynamics. We're talking about qualities that contribute to better safety and efficiency as well," said Don Butler, vice president of Cadillac Marketing. "And thanks to Cadillac's advanced technologies, the ATS is a vehicle that's as comfortable as it is quick. It's a no-compromise luxury sport sedan." Read more...
The ATS reveals its refined side in its detailed stitching and precise cut-and-sewn interior. Enjoy the meticulously crafted premium materials inside the sophisticated cabin. Every detail is driver-focused and brilliantly executed. Read more...
While you can see for yourself that the exterior of the 2013 Cadillac ATS is designed to get lustful looks from any part of town you take it through, it's the interior, and even more specifically the new Cadillac User Experience infotainment system that is leaving everyone breathless. When the sedan's turned off, it just looks like part of the center console, not at all like a touch screen. Start 'er up though and the screen illuminates gloriously to match the same look as the touch capacitive climate controls directly underneath it. Read More...
Can't wait until September? Keep an eye out during next week's Olympic opening ceremonies for this exhilerating commercial:

| Just for Fun | Safe Summer Travel with Pets

We know how much Pepe Cadillac customers love their pets and your summer travel plans may include Fido or Frisky. Sarah Hodgson, Westchester dog trainer and owner of When Dogs Talk, advises that you consider your dog's personality before deciding to pack the bowl and bones because some dogs don't have the temperment for travel. If your dog is the social type, however, and you decide to bring him along, you'll want to consider his safety and comfort by making sure he's hydrated and well exercised before beginning the journey. Did you know that it's a misconception that all dogs can swim? Check out these safety tips if you're headed to the beach with your pooch.
Advance planning is the key to any successful vacation and the right travel gear for your pet can make all the difference such as a mat to protect the back of your new Escalade or seat covers for your SRX.
Avoid the unpleasant surprise of a "No Pets" policy at your hotel by including a resource such as Pet Hotels of America in the planning. And, check out the many sites like Hike with your Dog for fun activities once you settle in.
Happy Travels! We'd love to see some vacation pics of you and your pets...post them on our Facebook wall. |
