What Customers Are Saying
"The reviews we receive put real voices behind the pricing, selection and service we stand behind every day. Take for instance one driver who noted that our dealership was "worth the 7.5-hour drive 1 way from our home north of Dallas, Texas to buy our daughters Trailblazer," traveling 1100 miles to receive what he called "the best car buying experience my wife and I have ever had" (Wesley V., Google Review). Another driver visits us from New Orleans for all their automotive needs because they "love the small town feel" and appreciate that we are always "working to make the customer happy" (Troy S., Google Review)
As for service, take for instance this particular anecdote: "Four women stranded with a truck making horrid noises. Bill Hood Automotive came to the rescue." This Google review from Kay H. cited our dealership's "Southern hospitality" as being "warm and helpful," and we were pleased to be able to get them back on the road toward Des Moine, IA, within about an hour. Meanwhile, Kensie J. cited in a recent 5-star Google review that she trusts our team entirely and "won't go anywhere else" for service.
Your Trusted Amite Chevrolet Dealership

Bill Hood Chevrolet Amite FAQs
What makes Bill Hood Chevrolet Amite different from other Chevy dealers in Louisiana?
Nearly a century of family ownership since 1929 has shaped how we treat every customer, with competitive pricing and a small-town feel that larger dealers cannot match. We also share used inventory across all eight stores in our auto group, so shoppers get a bigger selection than they would find at a single lot. Recognition like the GM Mark of Excellence and local Chamber of Commerce awards reflects that consistency.
Do used vehicles at your dealership come with any warranty coverage?
Many of our used cars carry a 3-month/3,000-mile warranty, which applies to qualifying domestic vehicles that are 10 years old or newer and under 100,000 miles. Every new and used vehicle also leaves our lot with a full tank of gas. Ask a member of our sales team which specific vehicles on the lot qualify for the coverage.
How does the service program work after I buy a vehicle?
Buy a car from us and your first oil change is on the house, then you receive an oil change punch card where every fifth oil change is free.1 Our four Master Technicians handle everything from routine maintenance to more involved repairs. For body work, our sister store in Hammond houses a body shop that our team can help you coordinate.
