In Our Community


At Phil Long Ford of Chapel Hills and Phil Long Truck World, we believe in supporting our first responders, aiding our military veterans and empowering our youth.

Cars Under the Stars Movie Night

We Hosted Our 5th Annual Cars Under the Stars Event

For a 5th year, we brought the community together with a free event that supported Shield616, a local nonprofit dedicated to providing live-saving protective gear to first responders. The fun-filled afternoon included a BBQ lunch for attendees, a Nerf battle with Colorado Springs Police Department's SWAT team, a Lego build with Monument Fire Department staff and more, ending with a drive-in style showing of Top Gun: Maverick. During the event, bulletproof vests were presented to members of Colorado Springs Police Department, El Paso County Sherriff's Office, and Monument Fire Department. 

Santa on Patrol


Ford of Chapel Hills, Shield616, Toys for Tots and the Colorado Springs Police Department partner to spread holiday cheer by delivering toys to in-need communities in Colorado Springs. Ford of Chapel Hills helped collect and distribute toys to hundreds of children (with the help of Santa, of course), providing a memorable holiday experience to families in Colorado Springs.
