To our valued customers, I am writing to offer my gratitude and share that I have decided to sell Mercedes-Benz of Richmond and Mercedes-Benz of Midlothian to the Murgado Automotive Group. After more than 60 years of serving Greater Richmond, this was a tough decision. We couldn’t do it unless we found the right partner with the right values — someone who would not only keep, but grow the invaluable relationships we’ve made with our employees and customers like you. We feel confident that the Murgado Automotive Group will carry on the legacy built by the generations of employees who have made us one of Greater Richmond's best dealer groups. Please know that the same team of professionals who have helped you throughout the years will still be giving their all for you. Now and always, my family and I thank you for supporting our business. It truly has been a pleasure to serve you. Thank You, Rod McGeorge

Mercedes-Benz of Richmond proudly supported the 30th annual Thalhimer Challenge over the weekend at Westwood Country Club and Salisbury Country Club. The Thalhimer Challenge is Richmond's largest and most anticipated tennis event. We congratulate Salisbury Country Club Ltd. for emerging as the tournament winner, where 1,000 players participated in almost 400 doubles matches throughout the weekend. Each club fielded doubles teams ranging from amateurs to former Division I college players. Added this year was a Thursday night kick-off that brought together all 12 clubs to begin the competition with a celebratory atmosphere. Teams cheered for their top players while enjoying food trucks and live music. "Richmond is a great tennis town—and this weekend showed how our tennis community can come together and battle it out for bragging rights between friends," said JP LaFors, Richmond Tennis Association president, who went on to say, "Mercedes-Benz sponsors the RTA and supports how the organization creates pathways for juniors to learn the game, runs tournaments for adults, and helps bring tennis to underserved youth and communities in Richmond." Thank you to everyone who helped host and attended the event. We're already looking forward to next year. #benzofrva #mbofrichmond #richmond

Our employees are knowledgeable in the auto industry and enjoy guiding our customers to make the best choice when selecting their vehicle and deciding on buying vs. leasing. In this blog post, Michael Stotler, Sales and Leasing Consultant at Mercedes-Benz of Richmond, collaborated with us to explain why leasing a car might be the best option depending on your preferences and needs. Michael considers leasing a vehicle an excellent option for individuals who prioritize driving newer cars with the latest technology, lower monthly payments, reduced maintenance costs, and flexibility in their vehicle choices. He explained why with simple bullet points: -Lower monthly payments: Leasing typically requires lower monthly payments than financing a new car. This can be advantageous in a market with high-interest rates, as you can get a more affordable automobile within your budget. -Access to newer technology: Leasing allows you to drive a newer car with the latest technology and features. Since technology evolves quickly, leasing enables you to upgrade to a new vehicle every few years, keeping up with advancements without being locked into an outdated car. -Maintenance and warranty coverage: When you lease a car, it is often covered by a manufacturer’s warranty, which may include regular maintenance. This can save you money on repairs and give you peace of mind, knowing you won’t have unexpected maintenance costs. -Avoiding depreciation: In a market with high car values, owning a car means you’re subject to potential depreciation. Leasing a vehicle allows you to avoid the risk and uncertainty associated with resale value, as you can simply return the car at the end of the lease term without worrying about its future worth. -Flexibility: Leasing offers greater flexibility compared to traditional financing. You can return the vehicle and choose a different one when your lease expires. If these factors align with your preferences and needs, consider leasing an intelligent option for your next vehicle, and contact Michael Stotler at 804-755-9300 for expert insight and top-notch customer service.
