We were honored to host a reception to recognize the winners of THE HEROES PROJECT.  Heiser Chevrolet in West Allis was the place, and the celebration featured food, refreshments and prizes--with nearly 100 people in attendance!  It was a beautiful day and a wonderful way to welcome veterans to the dealership, including the Legion Riders, VFW and American Legion post members.

When WTMJ-TV brought Heiser the idea of sponsoring THE HEROES PROJECT, we immediately knew it was right for us.  After all, we've noticed the veterans we hire as employees make significant contributions to our organization.  So, why not honor those veterans who continue to make a difference in the community once they return home.

We reviewed nearly 50 entries before choosing 9 veterans to honor.  Each joined us with their friends and family at yesterday's event to accept their plaque and gift card.  They saw a color guard, heard patriotic music and enjoyed lunch surrounded by fellow supporters.  How can you beat that!

A thanks to everyone who attended, including Molly Fay of The Morning Blend.  We all had great fun.  And, for those who couldn't make it:  Heiser plans on doing much more with the vets in the future!

Attention Wisconsin Plow Drivers: All-New Ford F-150 Adds Tough New Snow Plow Prep Option Across All Cab Configurations Wisconsin Winter warriors will have a tough new tool in their arsenal against next year’s long winter season with Ford’s new snow plow prep option, available on the all-new 2015 F-150. Ford is expected to be the only manufacturer to offer a light-duty snow plow prep option across all cab configurations – Regular, SuperCab and SuperCrew. When snow plow mode is activated via the push of a button, the vehicle temporarily turns off nonessential features to provide dedicated power for the plow. The option package requires the truck be equipped with a 5.0-liter V8 engine and four-wheel drive, and is available across XL, XLT and Lariat trim levels. The new 2015 F-150 is the toughest F-150 ever, and by using more high-strength steel in its frame and advanced materials in the body, Ford has made the new truck up to 700 pounds lighter. This leads to more capability and b
