Who knew how big Google would become. Who knows how big they will be. All I know is that Google does, almost everything, right. Expanding the already enormous range of features Google and OnStar already offers, now comes Google Maps. Later this month all GM vehicles (from 2006, up) that are equipped with Turn-by-Turn Navigation will be able to use the Google Map feature. This feature will be available through OnStar eNav Technology and will offer users to effortlessly receive directions and turn by turn visual signals to get to their destinations without any hassle.
The best part of all of this besides the point that you don't have to go to Google, print out the directions to where you want to go, then hassle with the papers while driving and swerving in and out of traffic? It's FREE. Google will be adding this feature at no additional cost to your OnStar subscription. Pretty sweet! Here's a video about OnStar's similar feature integration with MapQuest.
We just got in the 2011 Buick Regal at our Buick store in Cuba City! To those who may not be familiar with this new release then you are probably surprised to know that it is a Regal. It looks nothing like the Regal's that you probably remember. You know, those things your grandparents drove you around in everywhere as a kid? Yeah, well they just became a HOT commodity. Check out the video below for a walk around and more information on the Regal.
We are very very pleased with our 2009 Traverse. It is by far one of the most comfortable vehicles I have ever driven. We have been on 3 road trips and love how it handles the road!! Sure hope this Traverse lasts us a long time! We love it!!!! Thank you for making it possible when we came to see you!! I also want you to know how impressed we are with Runde's! Awesome people and awesome service! Keep it up! Take care!
Paul and Ellen S. of Dubuque, IAWe still have the Jeep Commander and all is well with it. Best vehicle and experience we've ever had. I have extended numerous compliments to Runde for Dave Frazier's exceptional customer service.

I would like to thank sales associate Mark Fleege for his help in picking out our new Chevrolet Silverado. LOVE the truck. We have purchased a vehicle before through Mark and he is one of the main reasons we returned to Runde. His help was nothing short of excellent. We are very happy with the vehicle and would recommend runde to other prospective buyers. I put the mud flaps on yesterday. Boy, was that the trick. Only I can take a 20 minute job and turn it into 2 hours. I would also like to compliment the person who is responsible for the Runde Website. It was very helpful in selecting a vehicle.
Robert K. of Sabula, IAI am extremely pleased with the Equinox ... I purchased it sight unseen except for over the website, because of my son's and Tim Runde's recommendation. They both certainly did a good job in selecting this auto for me, and I am looking forward to showing it to my son when he returns from his elk hunt in Wyoming.
Shirley C. of South Beloit, ILRunde was a very pleasant experience for purchasing a car. The whole time was very professional, caring and easy people to work with through the whole process.

Kara Walen, the daughter of Jerald and Sherry Walen who recently bought a vehicle from Runde's, came in today to pick up a new car. This college student from Dubuque, IA was nice enough to let us get an interview with her about her experience at Runde's.
What brought you to Runde's today? My Mom and Dad actually just bought a Santa Fe from you guys about two months ago and suggested that I come here to get my new car.
What did they have to say about their experience? They loved it. They really like their car and thought Al Kloft [their salesman] was great.
What did you end up picking up? After I took it for a test drive I picked up a 2005 Cobalt. I like it a lot.
If you were to rank your experience at Runde's on a scale of 1-10 what would you give it? Probably a 9.
How about Al, what would you give him? Probably a 9 as well, he was very good and helpful. I thought he was really funny.
Are you attending college? I'm going to NICC to become a Nurse.
Any jobs lined up? I work at Sunnycrest as a Certified Nurses Assistant. But after I graduate I don't have anything lined up quite yet. Maybe I'll move near Sunnycrest, I don't know.
When do you graduate? Well I just started this year so it'll probably be another 3-4 years.
If you could change anything about your experience buying a car, what would it be? I can't think of anything that I'd change, I thought everything was great.
Have a favorite movie? I...don't know... I guess I don't really have a favorite one right now.
How about the last movie you saw in theaters? Alice in Wonderland.
How did you like it? It was OK, it wasn't as good as what everyone said it would be.
Yea, I'm a Tim Burton fan and I didn't even like that one.Favorite music group/artist? Well, I like pop and rock and country... really everything.
Would you recommend Runde's to a friend? Oh yes, for sure.
If you were to win the lottery what would you do with the money? Pay off my car... then go on a trip or go shopping.
Do you have a name for the vehicle? I was thinking of calling it Goldie. Because my old car was named Ruby and this is definitely an upgrade.
Does your family go on family trips? My mom doesn't like doing that stuff. My dad would like to go on trips but usually ends up staying around the area.
What was the last vacation you went on? Florida - when I was 14. It was fun, my boyfriend and I might go back.
Last time I was there I went to "Wet & Wild" water-park and got 2nd degree burns. I had blisters all over my shoulders and back. That was our first day in Florida out of five... so the next 4 days we spent in the hotel room trying to move as little as possible. Yea! I heard of that place, it has that HUGE slide that's like straight down. That's pretty sad though.
Not the most pleasant experience but I’m sure you will have several great experiences in your new car! I know I will, thanks!
Thank you, have a great ride home and tell your parents Runde’s hopes that they, and their vehicle is doing well.
Never been to Florida? Be sure to pack the sun screen.

Ed Whitacre, the CEO of General Motors, annouced that GM has paid back all of the borrowed money in full to the government with interest. This gigantic announcement demonstrates a level of confidence within the company that has surfaced mainly due to a slimmed down product line, a more refined company focus, and exciting new products like the Chevy Equinox, the Chevy Camaro, and the Buick LaCrosse that are selling almost as quickly as they arrive on dealers' lots.
With this move, they are basically saying that they wholeheartedly believe GM is now on the right track to profitibility.
And here at Runde Chevrolet and Runde Buick, we know without-a-doubt that GM is back on track and ready for the road ahead. The tank is full, the engine is hummin', and the GPS is set ... Destination ... Success. Full speed ahead.
