Memorial Day Sale

Saturday, May 23rd, 2009

GM is having a memorial day sale.  GMC Sierra pickup trucks are especially important to GM, so the rebates are red hot on these trucks.  On 1500 pickups, the rebate is $5000, plus we are discounting them too.  These special memorial deals last thru tuesday, May 26.

Follow these links to a few of our specials:
  B9239  Ext Cab 1500 Sierra Sonoma Red
  B9091 Crew Cab 1500 Sierra Onyx Black All Terrain Package

Here in the Peoria, IL area, trucks and suv are still moving at a good pace.  Don’t miss out!  Now is the time to buy.  Whether you are from Pekin, Morton, Washington, Peoria, Eureka, Bloomington, Normal, Forrest, Fairbury, or any other nearby town, we will serve you with a smile.

By the way, in honor of those who have fallen, we will be closed on Monday, May 25.  Please take time to remember our country’s heros!!!  God bless America!!

Lighthouse Automotive will be part of the “New GM”

Friday, May 15th, 2009

To all of our past, present and future customers.

As you may know, the media is reporting that over 1000 GM dealers will be eliminated.  Today is the day that each dealer found out their fate.

We are happy to tell you that we are on the good list!!!

The criteria GM used to rank dealers are as follows:
- sales effectiveness
- customer satisfaction
- financial health of the dealership

Thanks for your support and help. We appreciate it very much.


We look forward to continuing to serve you. Lighthouse Automotive will be here for many years to come selling and servicing great new and used cars, trucks, and SUV’s.

Below is an email, from our owner, Jeff, that broke the good news.

To all employees,

I am very thankful to announce to you that we are going to continue to be a GM dealer.

We just receive word that we are not on the list of dealers to be cut.

All thanks go to the Lord.

P.S. I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you for being the greatest team that any dealer can have. It is because of your hard work and dedication that we are in the game.

It is a miracle that a crash hasn’t happened more often with Lighthouse Automotive situated so close to a busy road.  Thankfully no one was seriously hurt.
