In 1948 the company separated the autos from the tractors, thus beginning Stovall Tractors. In 1960 with the retirement of Mr. Stovall, ownership of the company went to Calvin Stovall Jr. and management of Stovall Tractors was given to Mabin Bently. In 1995, Stovall Tractor was sold to Mr. Tommy White and became North Georgia Tractor, Inc . Henry "Calvin" Stovall Jr. was born in Cornelia, Georgia on August 20, 1915. He was the son of the late Henry C. Stovall, Sr. and Elizabeth Patton Phillips Stovall, and was preceded in death by his two sisters, Elizabeth Stovall Cuttino Griffin, and Laura Stovall Davis. Calvin attended Habersham County Schools and received his A.B. degree from the University of Georgia in 1937. He was a member of Pi Kappa Phi fraternity. After college he began his career with Commercial Credit Corporation as Office Manager in Columbus, Georgia and Mobile, Alabama. Calvin began his automotive career in 1946 after his release from active duty in the U.S. Army. While in service from November 1940 to February of 1946, Calvin rose in rank from Private to Major. He participated in ten campaigns and received 10 battle stars in the African-European Theater. He retired from the U.S. Army Reserve as a Colonel and Commanding Officer in 1970. The retired President and Chief Executive Officer of Stovall Motor Company and Stovall Tractor Company, both companies founded by his father, Calvin was an active member of the Georgia Automobile Dealers Association (GADA) and the National Automobile Dealers Association. He served as President of the GADA in 1975 and 1976. He was the State of Georgia’s Time Magazine Quality Dealer Award winner in 1974. Calvin was honored by Ford Motor Company on many occasions earning 13 Ford Distinguished Achievement Awards. He represented dealers of the Southeastern Region on the Ford National Dealer Council in 1970. Giving of his time and talents to his automotive career did not keep Calvin from being extremely active in civic, religious, and community endeavors. He served as President of both the Habersham County Chamber of Commerce and the Cornelia Kiwanis Club, and served on the Board of the Cornelia Housing Authority for 40 years. Appointed by Governor Carl Sanders to the State of Georgia Commission on Aging in 1966, he served in that capacity for a six-year term. Governor Jimmy Carter appointed Calvin to the Council on Aging for the Department of Human Resources from 1972-1975. From its inception in the early 1950s, Calvin served on the Executive Committee and as a officer of Wesley Homes, Inc., a United Methodist organization of the North Georgia Conference to care for the aging. In 1974, Calvin was named by the Supreme Court of Georgia to serve on the State Disciplinary Board of the State Bar of Georgia for a two-year term. He was one of the first three lay members who were appointed to serve on this distinguished board. And, in 1990, the Habersham County Rotary Club honored Calvin by naming him a Rotary International Paul Harris Fellow. Several years later, the Cornelia Kiwanis Club honored him with the Kiwanis International Hixson Award and, most recently, named him a Kiwanis Fellow. A long-time supporter of his alma mater, the University of Georgia, Calvin contributed his financial support to the “Memorial Garden” project honoring service men and women who served our country during World Wars. He was a strong advocate and dedicated supporter of Piedmont College as well. Calvin also served his church in virtually every capacity a layman can. Most recently, he served on the Long-Range Planning Committee of the Cornelia United Methodist Church, and, for the last few years, served on the Administrative Board as the church’s representative to the Habersham Christian Learning Center’s Board of Trustees. In 2008, he was elected an honorary life-time member of the Administrative Board. A member of both the Masons and Shriners for over 50 years, Calvin also served as both the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Community Bankshares, Inc. In April 2007 he was named Chairman Emeritus of the bank holding company. He also served on the board of Community Bank & Trust since 1967 and the board of Financial Supermarkets, Inc. from its inception in 1984. Calvin was a charter member of the Habersham Historical Society and was honored by the City of Cornelia in 2008 as the recipient of its Citizenship Award. Through his life-long commitment to his church, his family, and his career, Calvin continually placed the welfare of others above his own. A true “Southern Gentlemen”, he was a living example of a devoted husband to his wife Nancy, father of daughter, Marcia, and friend to many, many people. His example fulfilled the time-honored statement that “Service to others is, indeed, the rent we pay for the space we occupy here on earth.’ Henry “Calvin” Stovall, Jr., died on November 15, 2009 in Cornelia, Georgia after an extended period of declining health. He was 94. We have no affiliation with Stovall Motor Co. Or North Georgia Tractor, Inc. Thank you and Good Luck! |

Ram 1500 bests new F-150 in MT pickup shootout
Tue, Nov 25 2014Ford's 2015 Ford F-150 is a technological tour-de-force, what with its aluminum-intensive construction and its powerful and efficient new 2.7-liter EcoBoost engine option. But now that it's hit the market, it's time to get down to brass tacks and find out how just the latest F-150 actually stands up to its rivals in the hyper-competitive fullsize segment. Motor Trend is among the first to round up the Ford (in Lariat 2.7-liter 4X4 guise here) and put it up against the Ram 1500 Outdoorsman EcoDiesel 4x4 and 5.3-liter-equipped Silverado 1500 LTZ Z71 to find out how Dearborn's new-think truck measures up. The test put the trio through over 1,000 miles of tough driving in California and Arizona in a variety of conditions from just cruising around unladen to hauling a trailer. MT found all three trucks to be competent, but the most praise got heaped on the Ram and the Ford, with the Chevrolet falling a step behind its competitors in many tests. Among the Ford's most-liked features was its 2.7-liter, twin-turbo V6 that helped make the F-150 easily the quickest of the group, with some editors saying the engine felt about the same whether driving around with cargo in the bed or not. There was some minor turbo lag during acceleration while trailering, but that issue affected the Ram, too. The Ram's powertrain was lauded, as well. The EcoDiesel was torquey around town, and the 1500's combination of an eight-speed automatic and air suspension was judged to be the best of the lot. It was the most difficult to get into the bed, though. The Ram also won the fuel economy award by netting 20-miles-per-gallon city and 28-mpg highway in the test to beat its Environmental Protection Agency ratings of 19/27. The Ford's EcoBoost managed 17/22, one mpg off each from the EPA numbers, and using a lot of throttle really depleted its efficiency. As MT notes, however, it would take time for the diesel's mileage savings to pay off at the pump for these two trucks. In the end, the Ram just barely eked out the win, with the title partially earned because of "the Ford's unknown maintenance and aluminum repair costs," according to MT.

Which is more fuel efficient, driving with a pickup's tailgate up or down?
Tue, 26 Aug 2014
Thanks to the smoke wand in the wind tunnel, you can actually see the difference in our video.
Should you drive with your pickup truck's tailgate up or down? It's an age-old controversy that's divided drivers for decades. Traditionalists will swear you should leave the tailgate down. Makes sense, right? It would seem to let the air flow more cleanly over the body and through the bed. But there's also a school of thought that argues trucks are designed to look and operate in a specific manner, and modern design techniques can help channel the airflow properly. So don't mess with all of that: Leave the tailgate up.
Ford Fusion getting substantial refresh for 2017
Wed, 13 Aug 2014It's only been a couple of years since Ford rolled out the current Fusion, but if these spy shots are anything to go by, it's already planning what appears to be a substantial update for the mid-size sedan.
According to our paparazzi on the ground, the new Fusion is being prepared for launch late in 2016 or early 2017. Although heavily camouflaged to keep it from prying eyes such as ours, it appears that the updated Fusion will tone down the Aston Martin-style grille, ditch the small corner window with revised front side glass and tweak the vehicle's overall shape. But there's more to the new Fusion than a styling adjustment, and our spy photographers have caught a glimpse inside and taken us along.
Apparently the new Fusion is to get a completely overhauled interior with soft-touch surfaces and matte wood trim to make it seem more upscale. There's an all-new rotary gear selector (like you'd find on a Jaguar, for example) hinting at the implementation of a new nine-speed automatic transmission. The prototype appears to be packing the Microsoft SYNC system, suggesting that the new Blackberry QNX system isn't ready quite yet - though that doesn't necessarily mean it won't be ready by the time the new Fusion is.
