About Chevrolet

Chevrolet is an American automobile division of the manufacturer General Motors (GM). In North America, Chevrolet produces and sells a wide range of vehicles, from subcompact automobiles to medium-duty commercial trucks. Due to the prominence and name recognition of Chevrolet as one of General Motors' global marques, "Chevrolet" or its affectionate nickname Chevy is used at times as a synonym for General Motors or its products, one example being the GM LS1 engine, commonly known by the name or a variant thereof of its progenitor, the Chevrolet small-block engine.

  1. It was only in 1900, but it was a magazine ad. I don't think it had full paper clearance, because it showed him drinking bovral on his paper throne. The slogan was, the two infallible powers, the Pope and bovral. It was not strictly on brand, I think, for him. Have you heard of Chevrolet? Chevrolet. No. Can you have a guess? Is it chicken Bovril?

  2. This is a very brisk one from Kenneth Booman. Hopefully this is suitable for Little Fish. I work for a competitor of Chevrolet, so this one stings a bit. The Chevrolet Suburban is the longest produced automobile model, or nameplate, still in production today. It was introduced in 1934.
