Driving can be a real chore. It’s not uncommon to see improper driving in our everyday commutes, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t practice proper driving. Safety and efficiency are the name of the game and here at McLarty Daniel Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Bentonville, we’re committed to driving safe and smart. Let’s take a look at some of our most important rules to the road.

     1. Using your turn signals

The most infuriating thing to see on the road is the lack of turn signals before merging or turning. Be part of the change and work toward bettering your habit or allowing drivers to see your signals and potentially change their bad habits.

     2. No feet on the dash

This one is just as much about hygiene as it is your safety. Nobody wants a pair of gross feet on their dash, nor do they want a pair of feet going through their windshield in the event of an accident. Think about your piggies before propping them up next time. 

     3. Using the left lane for passing

The left lane was designed for drivers to pass slower traffic in the right lane. Sure, it’s frustrating when Linda from down the street is hogging the left lane, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t exercise smart and safe driving.  

     4. Zipper-Merging

Call it crazy, but research has proven that waiting until the last minute to merge in a closed lane situation is the most efficient way to drive. The zipper-merge method will keep cars merging in a left-right-left pattern and prevent blockage on closed roads.

     5. Pay attention at lights

Nobody wants to be held up at a light just because someone wasn’t paying attention. Don’t just look down at your phone after coming to a stop. Stay alert and keep traffic flowing. 

     6. Don’t text/drive

No explanation needed on this one. Don’t text and drive folks. 

     7. Pull over for emergency vehicles

You hear the sirens before you see the vehicle. A quick glance into the rearview and everyone is starting to pull onto the sides of the road. What do you do? No brainer. You always move over for emergency vehicles and in the state of Arkansas, it’s required that you move over to the furthest lane that the emergency vehicle is in. Be mindful of this one. Ensuring the emergency vehicles can get to the scene as quickly as possible is in everyone’s best interest. 

     8. Don’t leave kids/pets in hot vehicles

Conditions can get extreme in a hot car and our loved ones don’t need to suffer. Always check before getting out of the car and make sure that everyone is out and accounted for. Simply rolling down the windows doesn’t cut it and it’s better to be safe in this situation than sorry. 

     9. Don’t park at the pump

We need gas people. This isn’t rocket science. 

     10. Easy on the backseat driving

Enough said. 

Have you broken a couple of these rules? No sweat. There’s always time to practice your driver safety, especially behind the wheel of a 2019 Chrysler Pacifica. Top-notch safety, modern luxury and advanced technology all come designed to keep you driving comfortably and safely in the Pacifica. Interested in a new ride? You can give us a call, fill out our contact form or use the map located on the right to pay us a visit in person. We hope to see you soon at McLarty Daniel Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Bentonville!

The kids are back in school and you’re looking for a new ride to get the family around town. In a highly competitive market many cars stand out, but we believe three cars stand out in particular. Let’s take a look at some of the best back-to-school rides.

Chrysler Pacifica

The 2019 Chrysler Pacifica is the premier minivan of the year and the most awarded minivan two years running. With options like Stow ‘n Go seating, the Uconnect theater and a tri-pane panoramic sunroof, it’s no wonder why the Pacifica is such a fan favorite. Clean, contoured curves soup up the Pacifica’s design to keep it running with the hottest cars of the year. The 2019 Pacifica was named an IIHS Top Safety Pick, when equipped with optional front crash prevention and specific headlights. Hop in and out of the pickup line with the slightest of ease, thanks to the Pacifica’s available 360 degree Surround View Camera and Rear Cross Path Detection. Your kids won’t be rolling their eyes when they see this minivan pull up to curb… we guarantee it!

Jeep Grand Cherokee

Seamlessly blending power, performance and good looks into one package, the 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee is one of the hottest family cars on the market. Seating for five is comfortable and you’ll still enjoy plenty of space in the trunk for school projects and sports gear. Make sure everyone has a smile on their face with the available Uconnect package. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and SiriusXM will have everyone jamming out to the hottest hits. Nearly 70 standard and available safety features adorn the 2019 Grand Cherokee, plenty of reason to consider the legendary Jeep as your back-to-school family car. 

Dodge Durango

Sure, you could buy a Dodge Grand Caravan and join the minivan crew, but why not take a look at the 2019 Dodge Durango? Three rows of seating, signature Dodge performance and bold, rugged looks make this SUV one sweet ride that will have the entire family “oohing” and “aahing.” Over 60 standard and available safety features, 295 standard horsepower and an eight-speed automatic transmission will make picking the kids up from school a treat. 

Convinced one of these is the right vehicle for your family? Here at McLarty Daniel Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Bentonville, we’re dedicated to bringing you the best selected of vehicles the state has to offer. We’d love to have you stop by our location, fill out our contact form or give us a call to schedule a test drive in any of these fantastic family cars. We look forward to seeing you at McLarty Daniel Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Bentonville!

Ready for some Dodge Brothers history? Curious about who founded Dodge Motors? When Horace and John Dodge started their careers, they never envisioned that their brand would one day sport some of the hottest muscle cars on the market. No, the two brothers started as trained machinists working in iron forges and in 1896 the brothers created a bicycle alongside Fred S. Evans, branding it under the Evans & Dodge. 

John Dodge, the more skilled machinist of the two, created a dirt-proof ball bearing that same year. Horace was more skilled in finances and made sure that the two brothers were never taken advantage of by slimy businessmen. The two began to produce auto parts rather than the bicycles with which they had made a name for themselves.

Cool Historical Facts You Didn’t Know About Dodge

It wasn’t until 1902 that the two brothers left the bicycle business to open their own shop, producing auto parts full-time for anyone that would buy the increasingly popular components. 

Even the legendary machinist Henry Ford knew that the Dodge brothers were on to something. He commissioned the two to begin producing parts for Ford and, soon, the brothers and their team were building every part of the Ford vehicles but the seating and tires.

Eventually, after differences in employee treatment and workplace environment, Henry Ford split from the brothers, but this didn’t faze them. The brothers knew the weaknesses of Ford models, weaknesses that they had tried to resolve, but never received the green light for. They were going to make their own car–one that had no weaknesses. 

The year was 1914. Dodge Brothers finally became a fully-fledged car company. The brothers pushed their first model off of production lines during November that year and the rest is history. Only 249 Dodges were built in 1914, easily recognizable by their cone-faced clutches, real grain leather interiors, wooden spoke wheels and all-black touring paint. 

Charger or Challenger? Which Performance Car Is Right For You?

The brothers sold 150 cars to the U.S. Army in 1916, helping the armed forces to catch Pancho Villa and establishing the first, harrowing, mechanical cavalry charge. General George S. Patton would later go on to proclaim a preference for the brother’s trucks during World War II.

Sadly, in 1920 Horace contracted pneumonia while at the New York Auto Show, rendering him bedridden. John, the loyal brother that he was, sat by Horace’s bedside, ultimately catching the debilitating sickness and passing from it ten days later. Horace fought the illness, but succumbed to its effects just a few months later. 

Innovative, honest and wild, the Dodge Brothers changed the automobile industry forever with their advancements and understanding of machinery. So when did Chrysler buy Dodge? Walter Chrysler knew the brothers ran a tight ship and saw the value in helping continue their legacy. In 1925 he acquired the company and Dodge remains a part of the Chrysler automotive group to this day. 

Had Horace or John ever peeked into the future and seen the Dodge Challenger, we know they would have been proud to see what their brand would one day produce. The history of the Dodge brothers inspires the automotive enthusiasts in us and seeing just how far they’ve come makes today’s modern marvels all the more impressive.

Interested in what a century of innovation feels like? Drop by McLarty Daniel Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Bentonville and take a Challenger for a spin today. We’d love to see the grin on your face when you floor the pedal. We hope to see you soon!
