On August 16th, Franklin Sussex Automall will be hosting our own Hazzard County Fair … complete with an autograph session by John “Bo Duke” Schneider, a Daisy Duke Look-A-Like Contest, Replica General Lees as well as food and fun for the entire family!

The majority of the next episode of Around The Lot will highlight the Johnny Rizzo Golf Outing at High Point Country Club and will be taped on location during the event on June 18th in Montague. Franklin Sussex Automall is a major supporter of the Johnny Rizzo Memorial Foundation.

Franklin Sussex Automall is also rewarding the Montague Minor Cardinals Kittatinny Little League baseball team for their help in raising donations for the Johnny Rizzo Memorial Foundation by naming them Little League team of the day at the Sussex Skyhawks game on June 8th. The Cardinals performed a roadside cleanup in Montague on May 22nd. The money that the Cardinals earned from the town of Montague for the cleanup is being donated to the Johnny Rizzo Memorial Foundation. We’ll feature the Cardinals, their cleanup efforts and their visit to the Skyhawks game on the next episode of Around The Lot.

Check out our Around The Lot Website for a quick clip of the Cardinals after the cleanup in Montague!

There has been a lot of talk about Chrysler’s Let’s Refuel America Program in which buyers can choose to lock in the price of gasoline at $2.99/gallon for three years courtesy of Chrysler LLC. Just the other day, Chrysler announced that it would be extending the program, which began May 7th, until July 7th.

Clearly, this program has been extremely successful and with the way gas prices keep rising, the deal is only going to get sweeter!
