Everyday Hero at Dimmitt Chevrolet

The Chevrolet Everyday Hero All Star Award is a great achievement and honor. Our very own Christopher Nance was one of only five people in the nation to earn this distinction. This is his story...

A few months ago a young couple broke down on the service road out front of the dealership just before closing. They were driving a GMC Sierra pick-up truck loaded with furniture and belongings. Sales consultant, Chris Nance went out to greet the couple to ask them if they needed help. Politely they said they were ok.  After closing the store Chris, drove over to the couple in his truck and offered assistance again. They were borrowing the vehicle from a family friend to help them move to the area. They stated that they could not reach the friend for assistance. Chris checked under their vehicle for a spare tire but unfortunately there was none. Chris proceeded to take the spare tire off of his personal truck and changed the flat tire for them.

The next day, Chris had their tire patched for them. When the gentleman came to pick up the tire he was very surprised and thankful.

Chris has now been named a Chevrolet Everyday Hero All Star!   He is truly embracing the principles of the Everyday Hero Program!  His recognition reflects well on all of us at Dimmitt Chevrolet.  Chris will be traveling to Las Vegas in June to participate in the 2015 Find New Roads Experience as one of only 5 winners in the country!  Congratulations Chris!
