WE LOVE AND SUPPORT OUR TEACHERS —— Littleton Chevrolet’s $5000 Teacher Giveaway – At Littleton Chevrolet, we understand the commitment and dedication that all of our teachers in our community and beyond put into every single day, hour, minute and second to encourage their students to see those victories and to have them grow their confidence. This week this truly dedicated young lady who has made it her mission for over 30 years to mold and allow her students to succeed with small and large wins. Patricia Atkinson who received a dual degree in Education and Human Services. She has been teaching Life Skills at Littleton High School since 2019. Starting her teaching career in Northern NH she has moved around based on being close to home for her children. She spent 5 years at the Davenport School in Jefferson and mentioned that was one school she loved and she loved the program. The school closed and that is when she found her new home at Littleton HIgh School. She is so passionate about watching her students shine. She never gives up on them. She loves kids and wants them to win in life. When asked what she was thought when she saw the post, Pamela said ” I was appreciative of the opportunity but it will be a long shot. If I did win, I would purchase some specific furniture for my students. A better way for them to learn and feel comfortable when they do their work. To her surprise prior to the drawing, Pamela found out that the school had written a grant and they were blessed with $10,000. Pamela could not believe it. With that money she did purchase all of the new furniture, new desks and chairs, washer and dryer and a dish washer. When Pamela found out that she won our giveaway, she got with the students to see what they could do with the money. They asked if they could open a school store. Pamela thought this was an amazing idea. This would allow the students to work with the public, understand cashiering and money, purchasing inventory, budgeting and much more. Pam has reached out to administration for approval. It should be a go but a few more details need to be worked out. When asked what she loves about her job, she replied ” I truly love to see those smiles when a student gets what they are working on. It is building their confidence to got out when they graduate and be a productive member of the community. I also love it when they leave, they still connect with me. I want to know what they are doing. If they need anything, I will be there for them. One other item that I would wish for…I wish that there was more time in the day. The day go by so fast and it is challenging and fun at the same time. I just want more time my students.” We are so excited for you and excited to see how the school store gives the students encouragement and confidence towards their independence. Congratulations Pamela. Everyone at Littleton Chevrolet is proud of what you do. We are behind you. #weloveourteachers

WE LOVE AND SUPPORT OUR TEACHERS —— Littleton Chevrolet’s $5000 Teacher Giveaway – At Littleton Chevrolet, we understand the commitment and dedication that all of our teachers in our community and beyond put into every single day, hour, minute and second to encourage their students to see those victories and to have them grow their confidence. On Monday late in the afternoon, we had the pleasure of seeing this hard working young woman along with her daughter and niece stop by with massive smiles of excitement and a look of disbelief. She could not believe that she had won. She received a call from her mom telling her that she had won. Kelsey Lynn was in shock. On that day, our team welcomed Kelsey of Mt. Royal Academy North in Lancaster, NH with open arms. With a Bachelors in Education from University of Vermont and a Masters Degree from Lyndon State College, Kelsey has been dedicated in molding her students for the past 11 years. She has been at her current location for a year focusing on English and Social Studies with her 5th – 7th graders. When asked, what she thought about our giveaway? Kelsey replied, “I was tagged by multiple friends and teachers. I posted my information and said to myself…I never win anything.” Well that is not true…YOU WON!!!
When we asked Kelsey about what she loves about her career and being a teacher she replied, “I love the relationships that I have built over the years. The atmosphere and class sizes are small. This is where I can develop great one on one conversations, trust and interactions Those students mean the most to me. After 11 years in the education system, I get a lot of invitations to parties and graduation gatherings from the kids. I must be doing something right. One kind of cool event that I was invited to was one of my old students and it was to her wedding. Now that is pretty awesome that they continue to keep me in their lives. I love that!” We asked what she plans on purchasing with the $1000.00 in gift cards? “Plenty of books. The newer series of Perry Jackson books. Graphic novels (that are like comic books) are great and have some amazing illustrations that the students get into. They spend more time reading these and they can’t put them down. Beanbags and my intention of publishing students writings for their own books was something that the kids would appreciate and have for the rest of their lives to look back on.” Kelsey explained that she is including her class in her purchasing decisions. “Sharing items I purchases will be very gratifying and helpful for everyone at our school.” Kelsey loves this school, the students and her fellow teachers and staff so much. “This is a wonderful opportunity and I am so grateful.” These items will be with the school for a long time just as I will continue to commit to a long career in education. I love what I do.” Congratulations to you Kelsey. We enjoyed our time speaking with you and getting to know you. We are so excited to be able to do this for you and your school. You are an amazing, bright and talented teacher that dedicates her passion to the students. The Mt. Royal Academy North school is blessed to have you on their team. Littleton Chevrolet loves our teachers and we try to do our little part to give back to you and all of the teachers. We are behind you. #weloveourteachers.

On Saturday morning we had the pleasure to meet and congratulate this passionate young lady who stopped by to pick up her $1000 of Amazon Gift Cards. For 37 years and counting, Celine Leborgne of the Berlin Public School system has been getting up everyday during the school year and bringing her best effort to her 1st grade students. Graduating from Plymouth State College with a Bachelors degree in Education, Celine immediately started her teaching career in Berlin right after her diploma was inked. When asked what keeps her going after 37 years she answered, “Its the kids!! I love the kids. I love working towards seeing that light bulb turn on when my students finally get it after working through their struggles and work. I also absolutely love the hugs I get and give. It tells them that I am here for them and this is an awesome place to be. It is their safe place.” Every morning Celine has a meeting with the kids and she conducts an activity with them to get them moving and thinking. She also shares a message of the day that gives the students her expectations and what they will be working towards. It allows us to focus on the same thing throughout the day. Celine mentioned that this is her most challenging year. That doesn’t discourage her. She puts on that infectious smile and brings her best everyday with the students best interests in mind. Celine plans to share her winnings with her 1st grade team of teachers. She wants to purchase some easy reader books and additional supplies for her classroom and for the other teachers. One of those items was POST IT NOTES. She was told by her fellow colleagues that because she won the $1000 she can splurge on post it notes for the group. She laughed and told them that they should not worry. “I will buy post it notes for everyone.” Thank you Celine for all you do. It was our pleasure getting to know you and all you give back to your students and the Berlin Public School system. Enjoy your winnings and keep on being THE VERY BEST EVERYDAY. Everyone at Littleton Chevrolet is behind you. #weloveteachers

EVERYONE AT LITTLETON CHEVROLET WAS EXCITED ON FRIDAY TO MEET ONE OF THE WINNERS OF OUR FACEBOOK GIVEAWAY. We had the pleasure of presenting $1000 worth of Amazon gift cards to Jessi Vital from Lancaster Elementary School. Jessi is a Pre-school and Special Education Educator and has done a complete 180 in her life. She started out as a veterinary technician. She loves animals and wanted to care of them. This was her calling. After a few years taking care of animals she realized that there might be a different path. When the time came to start her family she realized that her calling was her family. She decided to regroup and went back to college and enroll in Granite State College and started her journey to get her degree in special education. More focus on her family and a much needed focus on the students of the North Country. She knew this was where she need to be. Getting her degree was first and for most. The balance with her family and work was very important to her. She knew this was something new and very exciting and was going commit to it 100%. We spent some time with Jessi getting to know her today. When asked…”What do you love about your career?” Jessi said…”I love watching the kids progress. I love that development. That social and emotional enhancement is extremely important. I want them to strive academically…we want to see progress and see them succeed.” “We as teachers and educators deal with so much during the day that we continue to put the students at the forefront. We all work diligently to make sure all students have the recourses and care they need. We are committed in seeing this through. We want these student to be the very best they can be when they leave us.” Jessi loves the path she has chosen and and we are so excited to present her with this gift to help her, her fellow educators and her school with the tools to make a difference every single day. Jessi plans to spend the money on totes to organize items for the classrooms for herself and other educators within the school. Science, math and engineering tools are another focus of her purchase. She also mentioned bookshelves for better organization and purposeful materials. Congratulations Jessi. Thank you for stopping by today and spending some time with our team and for being our winner of our giveaway. We are so proud of you and your commitment in what you do everyday.

Littleton Chevrolet’s General Motors Certified Pre-Owned vehicle program is one of the best around for a number of reasons, including:

  • Extensive warranty coverage: All Certified Pre-Owned vehicles come with a 6-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty, as well as a 12-month/12,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty. This warranty coverage is one of the most comprehensive in the industry, and gives you peace of mind knowing that your vehicle is protected.
  • Affordable pricing: Certified Pre-Owned vehicles are typically more affordable than new vehicles, but they still offer the same high quality and reliability. Littleton Chevrolet offers a wide selection of Certified Pre-Owned vehicles at competitive prices, so you can find the perfect vehicle for your budget.
  • Excellent customer service: Littleton Chevrolet is committed to providing its customers with an exceptional experience. The dealership’s sales and service staff are knowledgeable and friendly, and they are always happy to help you find the right vehicle for your needs.

In addition to these general benefits, Littleton Chevrolet’s Certified Pre-Owned vehicle program also offers a number of other advantages, such as:

  • Vehicle history reports: Littleton Chevrolet provides vehicle history reports on all of its Certified Pre-Owned vehicles. This gives you peace of mind knowing that the vehicle you are buying has a clean history.
  • OnStar and SiriusXM subscriptions: Many Certified Pre-Owned vehicles come with OnStar and SiriusXM subscriptions, which provide you with features such as roadside assistance, navigation, and satellite radio.

The lifespan of an electric vehicle (EV) battery is typically 10-20 years, or 100,000-200,000 miles. However, there are a number of factors that can affect the lifespan of an EV battery, including:

  • Driving habits: Hard driving habits, such as frequent acceleration and braking, can put more stress on the battery and shorten its lifespan.
  • Climate: EV batteries tend to degrade faster in hot climates.
  • Charging habits: Rapid charging can also shorten the lifespan of an EV battery.
  • Battery type: The type of battery used in an EV can also affect its lifespan. For example, lithium-ion batteries are more durable than lead-acid batteries.

Most EV manufacturers offer a warranty on their batteries, typically for 8 years or 100,000 miles. This means that the manufacturer will replace the battery if it fails during the warranty period.

Here are some tips to help extend the lifespan of your EV battery:

  • Avoid hard driving habits.
  • Drive in a moderate climate whenever possible.
  • Avoid rapid charging unless necessary.
  • Keep your battery between 20% and 80% charged.
  • Park in the shade or use a car cover to protect your battery from the sun.

If you follow these tips, you can help ensure that your EV battery lasts for many years.

As Littleton Chevrolet embarks on new horizons and adventures with the installation of our new Electric Vehicle Level 3 Fast Charging unit, we wanted to share our thoughts and research of the different levels of charging units.

Electric vehicle (EV) charging stations are classified into three levels: Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. The main difference between the three levels is the speed at which they can charge an EV.

Level 1 charging stations are the slowest and most common type of charger. They use a standard 120-volt AC outlet, the same type of outlet used for household appliances. Level 1 chargers can typically add 3-5 miles of range per hour of charging.

Level 2 charging stations are faster than Level 1 chargers and use a 240-volt AC outlet, the same type of outlet used for electric dryers and ovens. Level 2 chargers can typically add 20-30 miles of range per hour of charging.

Level 3 charging stations are the fastest type of charger and use direct current (DC) to charge an EV’s battery. Level 3 chargers can typically add 100-200 miles of range per hour of charging.

Here is a table that summarizes the key differences between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 charging stations:

Feature Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Voltage 120V AC 240V AC 400V or 800V DC
Power 1.4 kW 3.2-19.2 kW 50-400 kW
Charging speed 3-5 miles per hour 20-30 miles per hour 100-200 miles per hour
Cost Least expensive More expensive than Level 1 Most expensive
Availability Most common Less common than Level 1 Least common

Which level of charging station is right for you?

The best charging station for you will depend on your needs and driving habits. If you have a short commute and can charge your EV at home overnight, a Level 1 charger may be sufficient. If you have a longer commute or need to charge your EV more quickly, a Level 2 charger is a good option. Level 3 chargers are best for long-distance road trips or if you need to charge your EV quickly in a pinch.

Keep in mind that not all EVs are compatible with all levels of charging stations. Be sure to check your EV’s owner’s manual to see which charging levels your car supports.

Stay tuned for more information on our exciting new installation along with all of the new EV products on the way very soon.

The Pontiac Fiero was a two-seater mid-engine sports car that was produced by Pontiac from 1984 to 1988. It was the first mass-produced American mid-engine car, and it was marketed as a fuel-efficient and affordable alternative to European sports cars.

Some of the amazing features of the Pontiac Fiero include:

  • Mid-engine layout: This gave the Fiero a better weight distribution and handling than front-engine cars.
  • Composite body panels: These panels were lightweight and helped to improve the Fiero’s fuel economy.
  • Independent suspension: This gave the Fiero a smooth ride and good handling.
  • Rack and pinion steering: This provided precise steering feel.
  • Four-wheel disc brakes: These brakes provided good stopping power.
  • Available V6 engine: The V6 engine gave the Fiero more power and performance.

The Fiero was also relatively safe for its time. It received good safety ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).

Despite a few flaws, the Pontiac Fiero was a groundbreaking car. It was the first mass-produced American mid-engine car, and it helped to pave the way for other mid-engine cars like the Chevrolet Corvette.
