In case everyone gets confused in the future. Chevy Duty is going to change their name to "five Star Parts". It appears that Chevrolet was a bit POd at the use of their name in the company's name. Chevy Duty had an agreement from Chevy of many years ago to allow this, but the new leaders of the "General" wanted to fight them. This required a trip to Detroit every week, so Chevy Duty owners elected to change their name, which is cheaper than fighting the "Big Guys".
