GM 100,000 Mile Warranty for 2008

As part of the new GM 100,000-Mile Warranty, we have extended the coverage on your 2008 GM vehicle. The Limited Powertrain warranty is now 100,000 miles or 5 years (whichever comes first). It is also fully transferable. There are no fees and no deductibles.

It's just another part of an ongoing commitment GM made to improve the quality of all our vehicles. In fact, we have made such dramatic improvements that this outstanding warranty is now standard on every new 2008 vehicle.

In addition, we have extended the Roadside Assistance and Courtesy Transportation programs to 100,000 miles or 5 years (whichever comes first). There is absolutely nothing you need to do. Just drive your GM vehicle as always, but with a new level of confidence that comes with the best coverage in America.

Local Children’s Illustrator and Author Peter Catalanotto Wows Families at
Fred Beans Family of Dealerships’
Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work Day®
It isn’t easy to keep close to 100 youngsters and their adults engaged and entertained for nearly an hour. But Peter Catalanotto, award-winning local children’s author and illustrator, did it easily. He spoke enthusiastically about his work as a professional artist and writer, about creating art—or anything you feel passionate about—and how he gets his ideas.

The program was part of Take Our Daughters And Sons to Work Day® at Fred Beans Family of Dealerships in Doylestown, held April 26. For the tenth year, the Beans family invited the youngsters who came to work with their adults to come over to the Ford store for a catered lunch and crafts. This year, the event included the presentation and one of Catalanotto’s books, inscribed by the author.

Catalanotto has written and illustrated such beloved children’s books as Dylan’s Day Out, Mr. Mumble, Christmas Always and Matthew’s ABC. A popular presenter for school programs, he passionately encourages young people to think of themselves as artists, even if they aren’t grown up and aren’t getting paid for their work. “If you draw, you are an artist now.”

He told them to use the two words writers love: “what” and “if.” “What if” something in your life happened a little differently? How could you use that to make a story more interesting for others?
Artist Tricia Shepard, 5, of Doylestown, is the daughter of Jim Shepard, Saturn parts manager.
“Try new things, new ideas, new techniques,” he urged his listeners. Catalanotto takes many of his stories and beautiful watercolor illustrations from his own life, tapping memories from the time he was little and observations of his interaction with his own daughter over her lifetime.
