Chevy dumped for Chevrolet?

Ok,lets ask ourselves something. When you were a kid and you first saw the word Chevrolet,was it easier to understand than Chevy? I know I may be gettin on the soap box here but,let's get something straight. It's takes a lot less energy and sounds a hell of a lot sexier to say Chevy. I drive a Chevy,I buy Chevy parts. I Hotrod my Chevy's. I insure my Chevy. We all know that yes,it is a Chevrolet however when you say Chevrolet you sound like a dork. With the exception of the odd Speed channel announce that can actually pull it off and sound good doing it.

  When you see a Bow-Tie the word Chevy comes to mind. People relate to the word and they love it. Chevy built the most popular engine in our planets history. They may not have been the first of the GM divisions to do it but,that doesn't mean squat when they did it the best. The world loves a winner. The small block Chevy is and always has been one of the sexiest phrases ever coined. And lets not forget that when Chevy developed the 265 back in 1955 we found ourselves able to have an ago old rivalry with the big block boys. Ok,enough of my rant. What it boils down to is that I like the word Chevy more than Chevrolet,it doesn't mean that I will quit buying and hot rodding "Chevy's". It just means that somethings do not need to change. If GM just has a sick sense of humor and is bored and looking to piss die-hard "Chevy" fans off like me then they succeeded. More than likely it's simply because I'm a "Chevy" guy and uhh..hey GM board of directors...your "Chevy" division with it's engineering know how helped me convert many a Ford owner into buying and falling in love with a "Chevy".Our Chevy's have seen us through the good times and the bad and for the most part have never let us down. And if there was a temporary set back,the engineers that designed the SBC had their act together and made it extremely easy for the small block to be worked on. Try working on a Ford with just a 3/8",7/16",1/2" and a 9/16" wrench on the side of the road.

  One final word, we as North American grew up with the Chevy,we all know it's actually Chevrolet but,we really don't care what you say as long as the guy behind the parts desk doesn't correct us when we ask for a Chevy part. It's a Chevy first,last and always. Anyway,these are my thoughts,not yours.
