Are you feeling lucky this St. Patrick’s Day? Well guess what’s coming to our Huntington located dealership this spring! If you are familiar with our dealership, then chances are that you are aware of our Late Night Evening Express Service Hours. Every Wednesday, our Service Department stays open for extended hours, closing at 7:30PM instead of our usual 5:30 PM closing time. During this time period, customers that have a busy schedule are still able to find time to get express services done such as: - Oil Changes - A Services - Flat Tire Fixes/ Replacement -Battery Checks -Recalls - & So Much More! At Mercedes-Benz of Huntington, our main goal is to please our customers, and one of the ways we do this is by catering to their specific wants and needs. Being working people in the Long Island and NYC area ourselves, we understand that most people work during the day, so evening express is ideal for our customers to be able to fit servicing into their packed schedule. This special amenity has set us apart from opposing Mercedes-Benz Dealerships in both Nassau and Suffolk County, Long Island for over a year now. Not only are we differentiating ourselves by offering extended hours, but offering evening express service also takes out the need of having to wait months on end for a loaner vehicle to be available so that you can get to work or school after dropping off your vehicle! Evening Express gets you in for service weeks before you may get into a different dealership. Sometimes, that few weeks of waiting becomes critical in terms of the health and safety of your vehicle. Since we have found an overwhelmingly positive response to our Wednesday Evening Express, we are so excited to announce that we will be extending our Evening Express program over to Tuesdays, beginning April 5th 2022! We will now have two extra days of convenience, so you can worry about the more important things in life because after all, car maintenance should be stress-free and simple! With Service Advisors Samuel Exantus, and Joseph Heyenoort, leading our Evening Express program, we have full faith in knowing that whether you have a New, or Pre-Owned Car, A-Class, or S-Class, your vehicle will be well taken care of, with your needs kept in mind. Next time you get a flat tire on Jericho Turnpike, Middle-Country Road, the Long Island Expressway, or Northern State Parkway on your way home from work, you know exactly where you can be taken care of right away! Come on down and let us show you what makes us Suffolk County’s premier Mercedes-Benz Dealership near Huntington, Commack, Northport, Cold Spring Harbor, Farmingdale, Massapequa, and Greenlawn!

Not only do we show our love for pets on Instagram, but we even ran our very own Pet Contest last year!

The month of November is a favorite amongst many due to the warm feelings that are associated with the season. Gratitude, appreciation, mindfulness, and thankfulness all come to mind during this time, and we love to feel it! With Thanksgiving this week and the holidays right around the corner, now is the best time for local businesses and companies to show their gratitude. This year, the Huntington Patch is hosting a “30 Days of Gratitude” Series on their website, where they will publish stories and letters from local people about people and things that they appreciate, are grateful for, and believe add something special to their lives. We would like to contribute to the gratuity within our Huntington community by talking about a couple of things that we are grateful for here at Mercedes-Benz of Huntington. Our Employees Our employees are our pride and joy, from Sales, to Service, Parts, Accounting, and our Support Staff! We would not be where we are without their hard work, dedication, and kindness. We are so grateful to have the #MBHuntingtonFamily by our side. A Sense of Community Here at our dealership located in the Huntington, Northport, Commack, and Elwood vicinity, we truly feel like we are apart of the greater community. Whether that feeling comes from donating and supporting various charities close to our heart such as St. Charles Hospital, Alternatives for Children, Paws of War, Stony Brook Children's Hospital, and more, supporting other local businesses, seeing the smiles on our customers faces, to the various traditions that we have here that we get to look forward to each year, we are grateful to feel it year-round. From our recent annual Turkey Day, where the Buzzetta family makes sure every member of the Competition Auto Group goes home with a turkey for Thanksgiving weekend, to the holiday festivities such as Luncheons, Breakfasts, holiday gifts, decorations, and more, down to the barbeques, Taco Saturdays, and the list goes on, we always feel like our own little community here at Mercedes-Benz of Huntington! Our Wellbeing All of the things aforementioned are so wonderful, but most of all we are so grateful to be in a position to experience all of it. We are so lucky to be in good health to be able to enjoy the company of those around us, and given the past year, it is something we cherish even more. It has really helped us love and appreciate these special moments to the max, and to be grateful for what is right in front of us. We are so thankful to be a part of the Huntington community! Happy Thanksgiving, from your Mercedes-Benz of Huntington Family!

If you drove down Jericho Turnpike Sunday, September 12th, chances are that you saw a multitude of different cars out, ranging from a Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing, to an Austin Healy Bugeye, and even a Ford Shelby. Living on Long Island, seeing these cars isn’t a common sight, but our Cars & Coffee Event brought out all the coolest cars out that Long Island has to offer! Our Long Island Car Show was scheduled to start at 8AM Sunday morning, running until 11:00 AM, but we couldn’t believe our eyes when our lot was already full by 8:05. I guess we should have known things were gonna heat up when we counted almost 600 RSVPs by Saturday! Needless to say, we were thrilled. Given this event was scheduled on a Sunday morning, we thought it would only be right to have coffee and bagels, provided by Joel’s Bagels in Medford, a shop owned by our Pre-Owned Assistant Jefferson’s Father. We are so thrilled to have been able to support a local small business that is close to our #MBHuntingtonFamily ‘s heart! All of our attendees were able to enjoy them while walking through our Huntington Dealership’s large new lot, which opened in 2019. For some added fun, our dealership also decided to do a couple of giveaways to make the day extra sweet! First, we decided to give away an exclusive Mercedes-Benz watch, along with an AMG hat for the Best In Show Winner. For our other giveaway, we raffled off a special Autoboxx Car Care Package, provided to us courtesy of Chris Bove of AutoBoxx Inc! We are so thankful to have had Chris and his company be a part of our event! Other than coffee, bagels, muffins, and raffles, our Parts Departmen t also had a tent set up for anyone looking to buy any Mercedes-Benz Lifestyle Accessories, similar to what we sell in our Mercedes-Benz Boutique. Although we did give out complimentary t-shirts for all who came, so many people also got to get their hands on items of their own personal liking as well for friends and family. Both classic cars and sports/performance cars filled up the rows. Both categories had so many memorable vehicles which can be found in our Facebook album titled Cars & Coffee 2021, or even on our Instagram page, @mercedesbenzliny.

We are so thankful to everyone who came out and made our Cars and Coffee car show one of the best on Long Island yet! We are so excited to see everyone next year! Be sure to follow us on our Instagram and Facebook to keep up with more fun events that we have planned for the near future.

As most drivers on Long Island are aware, June is National Tire Safety Month.

Maintaining Proper Tire Pressure: Check on your tire pressure weekly to make sure that the pressure is not too high or low; Incorrect tire pressure can lead to easier flats, lower durability, as well as it can affect your fuel consumption.

This year has been a tough year for most of us living in Long Island, New York, or even anywhere else for that matter, to say the least. With the COVID-19 pandemic, many changes have occurred in our day to day life that have been out of our control, that have affected ourselves, our family, our friends, co-workers, and even interaction with strangers we pass while on our day to day activities. Whether it be the busy mother you see wrestling to keep her children in line at the local Stop and Shop on Jericho Turnpike across the street from our dealership, the kind employee who has informed you that toilet paper is indeed restocked on the shelves at Target in Commack, or even your thoughtful neighbor that had sent over a care package with farm fresh fall goodies from Kerber’s Farm in Huntington, you and the people around you are going through things that we can all relate to. That being said, now is the time when a supportive community is greatly important if not necessary to bring about the feeling that no one is alone in their struggle amidst this pandemic. The reason why so many towns in Suffolk County and Nassau County such as East Northport, Dix Hills, Fort Salonga, Kings Park, Cold Spring Harbor, Huntington, Southampton, Melville, Smithtown, Plainview, Hempstead, Rockville Center, Massapequa, Franklin Square, and more are so loved by those living there is the close-knit community within each one. Since 1988, Alternatives for Children, a non-profit private school organization for children with special needs, has been contributing to this exact sense of community all over Long Island. Alternatives for Children has been a part of many families for so long, providing a nurturing environment for children and their individual needs, while catering to the needs of their families as well. This organization has been a place families have been able to turn to when everything seems to be falling apart. As any of us could understand, you want the best for our children or even if you don’t have children, for the children in the community around us. That exact vision of a welcoming place where those can turn to has truly been exemplified in all of the school locations in Aquebogue, East Setauket, Dix Hills, and Southampton. To help support their cause, Alternatives for Children has set up the Pop Up Party Pavillion, a Silent Auction to help fund the place that many have been able to come to in a time of need. In a time as important as now, it is so wonderful to show compassion and care by bidding or donating to such a wonderful cause. To take part in the auction you can head over to this link: https://cbo.io/bidapp/index.php?slug=alternatives. You can make a difference! Any little bit counts and is greatly appreciated by each and every single person within the organization, and what better way is there to pay it forward within your own community? Here is a brief word from our Dealership Principal, Jim Buzzetta on why Alternatives for Children is a great organization that the Competition Auto Group has decided to sponsor. Happy bidding!
