Motor City Mondays – Community, Conversation, and the Best of GMC
At Motor City Buick GMC, we’re proud to be more than just a dealership — we’re part of the Bakersfield community. That’s why we’ve partnered with Greg Kerr, Eyewitness News Sports Director, to bring you Motor City Mondays, a unique series of interviews with local difference-makers, athletes, and leaders — all filmed inside our premium GMC vehicles.
At Motor City Buick GMC, we’re proud to support the future of Bakersfield’s student-athletes by partnering with A3 Athletes’ Advantage Academy and A3 Sports Performance.
A3 Sports Performance helps local athletes prepare for high school, college, and professional sports through elite training and coaching. But many promising athletes face financial barriers that keep them from accessing these life-changing opportunities.
Spring in Bakersfield means warmer days are here—and let’s be honest, we’re all just trying to survive the heat without melting (insert sad face emoji, lol). Luckily, our friends at Modern Grub, Inc. have shared their top health tips to help you stay cool, hydrated, and energized while juggling your busy life.
Looking for the perfect springtime getaway? There’s no better way to experience California’s natural beauty than with a wildflower road trip through the Golden State. From vibrant poppies to rare desert blooms, California transforms into a colorful canvas each spring—making it the ideal time to hit the road in a reliable, adventure-ready GMC from Motor City Buick GMC in Bakersfield, CA.
A3 Sports Performance prepares local Bakersfield athletes for high school teams, collegiate sports, and beyond. While their services and facilities offer incredible support to all ages and levels of athletes, there is a need for sponsoring athletes who would otherwise not have the chance to attend A3. Motor City has partnered with the A3 team to call on our community to sponsor local athletes in their pursuit of achieving their goals, dreams, and future athletic careers.
We recently took the 2025 GMC Acadia on an unforgettable road trip to Marley’s Mutts Ranch in Tehachapi, California, to witness the incredible work they do for rescue dogs. Along the way, we met Melissa Brunson, Executive Director, and her loyal companion, Stacy, to see firsthand how their efforts are transforming the lives of countless animals.
