Last week was an exciting week at Milton Ruben Chrysler Jeep Dodge. We welcomed two of the newly redesigned Chrysler 200s to our store. We like to call them, " the gems from Detroit." The first we noticed about the vehicle's were obviously it's exterior.  The design is refreshing and shows the direction the Chrysler line is heading towards. They have taken took mere sheet-metal, crafted molded, & elevated it into something that is not only at home on the road, but could also be displayed at Augusta's Morris Museum of Art. The sculpted trunk lid, headlights accents, and arching roofline make the Chrysler 200 sure to go down in the historic books as a definitive turning point in American car design. The day the cars happened to arrive was a stroke of luck.  We were hosting an advanced screening of A dam Sandlers's & Drew Barrymore's latest hit romantic comedy " Blended " at the Regal Cinemas. So we had a chance to take the sporty 200s model with us to the movies and give it a proper Augusta debut.  As we drove we became intimate with the luxorious cabin of the car which made us feel like American royalty.  The  200s' s PentaStar V-6 engine's acceleration was strong, smooth, but not noisy.  After we arrived at the theater we handed the keys over to Brent from CW Augusta who acted a ringmaster, giving the car a grand introduction to the crowd that came to the movies. As a dealership it was exciting to see how the public reacted to the newest member of our family. Many enjoyed the design and were shocked that the sticker price was not astronomical.  Some enjoyed the fully digital display and the way the cockpit complements the driver. One woman even proclaimed " This is my new dream car". Now thats not bad for  the 200's first day out in Augusta!! The thing is though, you can read about a car all day, watch youtube videos, but in order to really learn more about you have to see it in the flesh. C ome to our store on 3504 Washington Road and check out the Chrysler 200 for yourself! Post written by Gerry Seavo James, Milton Ruben Superstore, Social  Media Manager

It's finally here.  Years of all-nighters, testing the reaches of caffeine, sleep-deprivation, and your own will power has finally paid off and now you have an extraordinarily pricey piece of paper to call your own. Questions of "what's next" hail down from friends, family, friends of the family, distant cousins that were invited to your graduation party that frequently compare you to how you were "deeees big!" the last time they saw you. This whole "real world" concept is getting scary all of the sudden. Life-altering decisions that no longer simmer down to the mystery meatloaf or starch-ridden chicken fingers in the student union are getting heavy. (Thanks, guys.)  Fortunately, we can help.  Well, not with that impending student loan payment or your Nana constantly pestering about when you're going to settle down and give her some great grandchildren.  But we can help you celebrate your newfound independence by clearing up some questions you might have about your first big investment - a new car. Our sales teams put their heads together to come up with a comprehensive list of recent-college-grad-friendly vehicles and why you might want to consider them for your first "real world" job.  All of these vehicles qualify for our exclusive college student discount ( Chevrolet, Toyota, Dodge Jeep). Jeep Patriot: "BEST PRICED SUV IN AMERICA"  Perfect for the tight budget, the Patriot sports the traditional Jeep "rough and tumble" look, has trunk capacity for growing hobbies (or roof rack options to strap up the kayak), the off-road capability to reach new heights, and averages 30 MPG on the highway (road trip anyone?).  This vehicle is up for anything. Jeep Cherokee: "THE RESTLESS ARE ALWAYS READY" An affordable entry-level option that still gives you a new, classy look, room for moving cross-country with 2nd and 3rd row seats that fold down, or escorting friends for a night on the town, and has the 490 mile range stamina to get home for Thanksgiving dinner, and the four-wheel drive to make it back in time for work in a freak ice storm. (We can't say those don't happen anymore!) Dodge Dart: "A RUDE AWAKENING FOR SLEEPY CARS."  Performance meets practical in this compact sedan with a lower price point for a quality vehicle without compromising that sleek, smooth design.  Its low maintenance costs double with the far more than reasonable 41 highway MPG to make it a dream come true while you're enjoying the sporty-feeling drive and leaving other cars behind to admire your signature racetrack taillamp.   Toyota Camry or Corolla: "ONE HECK OF A RIDE." There's a reason Toyota's compact sedans are everywhere - reliability makes this car an economical long-term investment. Drivers new to the city (and parallel parking) may be swayed by the ease these vehicles can squeeze into small spaces. The Camry has a little more room in the trunk for that brand new luggage Uncle Lenny gave you, but both cars are accommodated with plenty of space and a lofty resale value, while the Corolla offers the updated exterior to allow you a ride with style. Check out our Buy 1, Drive 2 Camry deal happening now at Milton Ruben Toyota - Limited time only! Expires 6/2/14.   Scion TC or xB: "PACKS A PUNCH." Scion markets to its favorite target audience - the hip, plugged in, advanced and modern college-age crowd.  Innovative exterior design reflects updated interior technology, with a conscious effort to make the vehicle accessible - no hassle pricing.  Express yourself by designing your own vehicle and special-ordering exactly the car you want - no gimmicks, no surprises. Chevy Sonic: "ARE YOU GAME?" Here's your chance at all the bells and whistles of a brand new car without the sticker shock! Sonics are affordable, have 5-star safety features, and the updated technology in available features - back up camera, remote start, parking sensors, satellite radio and navigation.  And let's not forget the turbo-charged engine reaching up to 40MPG on the highway, as well as it's eligibility for Chevy's Student Discount Program. Chevy Cruze: "WHO SAYS YOU CAN'T HAVE IT ALL?" If you're looking for a Chevy with a little more room to stretch out without compromising at the pump, the Cruze has it.  Its modern exterior won't lead you astray as the cutting edge interior technology is literally award-winning, giving you the power of a V6 with the efficiency of four cylinders.  But don't let those beautiful 40+ miles to the gallon fool you - cargo space is not scarce in the Cruze.  You can lower the rear seats and stuff the trunk with anything and everything your heart desires.   Each vehicle across the industry has its advantages - and these are sure to be a good fit for your brand new "real world" conquering life.  Of course, there are plenty to choose from on our Superstore lot.  When in doubt, shop around! Come in and ask to see our inventory, or check it out online.  Either way, being a "grown up" is stressful enough. Your first post-college car is a big deal, and you should be happy with your choice (and the price).   Hopefully this helped answer some questions and narrow down your choices.  Happy shopping! And congratulations!

Researching the 2014 Toyota Camry? We have assembled a grouping of third-party reviews from trusted sites such a s Kelley Blue Book, Edmunds, and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, among others, to help you make the most informed car-buying decision possible. Whats Experts Are Saying about the 2014 Toyota Camry: “Given its well-rounded nature and long-standing history of dependability, the 2014 Toyota Camry is a solid choice in the highly competitive midsize sedan segment….We think most people will be quite pleased with a 2014 Toyota Camry purchase….Fuel-efficient engines; comfortable and spacious interior with  above-average rear seat accommodations; better-than-average outward visibility." Edmunds.com _________________________________ “UNBEATABLE RECORD OF LONG-TERM VALUE… a primary appeal of the Camry is its long-term value, as typified by its proven record of reliability and its legendary resale numbers. It's that long-term value that keeps the Camry at the top of the sales charts. You'll Like This Car If...You're looking for a very solid deal with a very solid car, with proven reliability and resale value, no surprises, something you can count on to serve you well for the long haul. Welcome to the 2014 Toyota Camry.” kbb.com (Kelley Blue Book) _________________________________ “The 2013 Toyota Camry is a superb midsize sedan, with the latest chassis engineering and sleek styling. Camry powertrains are so different you should consider your needs or drive them all before you choose. The four-cylinder engine is exceptional, with good smooth response and excellent fuel economy. The 6-speed automatic transmission is smooth. The suspension is comfortable and the interior clean and convenient. Upper level models with infotainment options move the Camry upscale. Camry SE has a firmer ride and sharper steering response. Camry Hybrid keeps emissions low but doesn't offer the responsiveness of the four-cylinder and V6 models.” NewCarTestDrive.com report _________________________________ “It's also easy to dress up the Camry with more personality than you might be familiar with--by way of a V-6 engine, a sport suspension, and premium features--so it's not quite so relentlessly straight-laced…. Toyota reclaimed one of the top spots among mid-size sedans, with ten standard airbags plus top overall ratings from both U.S. safety agencies. Bluetooth connectivity is included in all trims—even the base model—and the screen-based Display Audio system, with Bluetooth audio streaming, USB connectivity, and iPod connectivity, is now included even in the base Camry L. A navigation system with voice recognition is also available, as is a high-end JBL sound system, with HD Radio and satellite radio. And through Toyota's advanced Entune system—also available—you can tap into Pandora streaming audio through your smartphone, as well as a suite of connected services. For 2014, the SE Sport trim–essentially a value package–has been brought back for the four-cylinder model…. Overall, the Camry rides and drives in a more refined, responsive way compared to any Camry you test-drove a few years ago, and the package and features have been much improved.” TheCarConnection.com report _________________________________ 2013 Top Safety Pick: 2013 Camry rated “Good” (the highest rating) in Moderate Overlap Front, Side, Rear and Rollover Tests, as well as “Good” in Roof Strength and Head Restraints & Seats. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety at  IIHS.org _________________________________ “What We Like : Attractive dashboard design, Passing power, Fuel efficiency, Ride comfort, except in SE.” Cars.com

So… it was a pleasure doing business with Milton Ruben Chevrolet! Best Wishes to you all and thanks again! :)" B.

We knew what we wanted before we ever contacted anyone at Ruben Toyota. We called Jeff Hennen, from whom I had bought a new 2011 Avalon 2 years ago, and told Jeff exactly what vehicle and options, to include color, that we wanted. The next day Jeff called back and said he had found a vehicle that met all of our requirements with the exception of "running boards," which could be easily installed by the Dealer. Jeff gave us a very fair price and we told him "to get it for us." Two days later Jeff called and said, "Your new vehicle is here and ready to be picked up!" "The Processing" of this purchase, and the "New Vehicle Introduction & Systems Check Out" were handled in a very professional and efficient manner. Not only did Jeff assist us, but so did John Lokey, Andy O'Harrow, and Paul Nopper. It was truly a " Team Effort " to ensure we had a very pleasant "Buying Experience" at Ruben Toyota! I commend all of these Ruben Toyota Representatives who helped us, and I ask that you pass on to the our personal "Thanks and Gratitude" for all of they did to mane us "feel good" about this purchase. They are true "professionals" and represented Ruben Toyota in a very outstanding manner. I would be remiss if I did not mention Dana Kent, who has been our Service Advisor for several years, even before he came to work at Ruben Toyota. Dana is another very professional Milton Ruben employee who represents your company quite well "on the front line" in your Service Department. Again my wife and I thank all of those mentioned heron, and we wish all of you continued success at Milton Ruben Toyota of Augusta." B. Matthews on Misty Jackson and the purchase of her 2013 Chevrolet Cruze: "I was so surprised with the joy and tears of happiness and gratefulness. I will tell everyone I know, if they could do it for me, they can do it for you." Come visit us at the Milton Ruben Superstore or online at http://www.drivebaby.com so we can share your story as well!
