Midsize sedans are great for drivers who want a large but cozy cabin paired with excellent handling and driving dynamics. But, of course, not all models are created equal; some are priced too high for everyday drivers to afford new, some have cramped quarters that make backseat passengers stir-crazy, and some have sluggish driving dynamics that make highway driving a nightmare, even when traffic is clear. But without test-driving at a dozen different dealerships, it can be hard for buyers to know the pros and cons of every midsize SUV available.

When you see the Chevy Malibu for sale here at North Park Chevrolet, you may well wonder how it stacks up against its competitors from other automakers. Since we want you to be able to make an informed decision without making test-driving sedans your new hobby, we’re happy to let you know what your other options are and how they compare to the Malibu. Today, we’ll be taking a look at how the Malibu fairs head-to-head against the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Kia K5, Hyundai Sonata, Nissan Altima, and Subaru Legacy. From style and ride quality to price and passenger space, we’ll explore several important elements that drivers should consider when choosing their next vehicle.

The Chevy Silverado 1500 is one of Chevrolet’s most popular and iconic vehicles. A full-size, light-duty pickup, it’s a highly versatile option that’s terrific for San Antonio drivers. Its dimensions make it perfect for daily driving up and down the River Walk, while its capabilities make it right for contractors and agriculturalists with major tasks to tackle in the region.

When it comes to a vehicle that captures the unique blend of Mexican and Texan culture of the Alamo City, it doesn’t get much better than this salt-of-the-earth, hardworking—yet humble—pickup. So, if you’ve been looking for a San Antonio Chevy dealer, pay us a visit at North Park Chevrolet. We’re a short drive out of the city and have all of the trims of the Silverado 1500.

Two trims we get a lot of interest in are the Custom and the Custom Trail Boss. Their shared word “Custom” would imply the two have similarities—and they do.
