Hoke County does not have a Chevrolet dealership. We are the closest one, about 20 minutes east on NC-401 at 4709 Bragg Blvd in Fayetteville.
About 20 miles from downtown Raeford, 25 to 30 minutesHoke County Has No Chevy Store. That Is the Whole Problem.
Raeford is a county seat with a courthouse on North Main Street, a historic district of 48 contributing buildings, and roughly 58,000 people across Hoke County. What it does not have is a Chevrolet franchise. Not in Raeford, not anywhere in the county.
So every Hoke County family shopping a new Silverado, Traverse or Equinox is already driving somewhere. The only real question is which lot they drive to.
We think it should be ours, and not because we are closest. We have been family owned at this same Bragg Blvd address since 1961, and a large share of the people we sell to live on your side of the county line.
Why Raeford Drivers Choose Powers Swain Chevrolet
Six reasons that actually apply to Hoke County, not six reasons that would fit any dealer anywhere.
One road, most of the way
NC-401 runs east out of Raeford and becomes Raeford Road in Fayetteville. There is no clever shortcut and no confusing interchange. It is a straight, predictable 25 to 30 minutes.
We are on the Fort Liberty side of town
4709 Bragg Blvd sits northwest of downtown, which means Hoke County drivers reach us without crossing the worst of Fayetteville traffic. That matters when you are making the trip on a workday.
We know the Hoke County military household
Fort Liberty extends into Hoke County, so plenty of Raeford families have someone stationed there. PCS timelines, deployment windows and the paperwork that comes with both are routine here, not an exception we have to work around.
Trucks matched to real county work
Hoke County runs on agriculture and poultry processing. That work needs payload and a tow rating, not a lifestyle trim. We stock Silverado 1500 through 3500 HD plus the midsize Colorado so you can buy the truck the job needs.
Built for a county that keeps growing
Hoke County has grown more than 22 percent since 2010. Growing counties mean growing families, and that is why we keep three-row Traverse and Tahoe inventory deep rather than ordering it one at a time.
One trip, not three
Twenty miles each way is a real cost. Start financing online, bring your trade with you, and we will appraise on site so you can arrive in one vehicle and leave in another on the same visit.

The Drive from Raeford, Step by Step
From the Hoke County Courthouse on North Main Street, take NC-401 east. The road carries you out past the county line and into Fayetteville, where it becomes Raeford Road.
Stay with it, then cut north toward Bragg Blvd. We are at 4709, on the Fort Liberty side of the city. Coming from Hoke County you approach from the direction that avoids the downtown crawl entirely.
If you are leaving from the Hoke County High School side of town on South Bethel Road, join NC-401 the same way. The trip runs 25 to 30 minutes in normal traffic and closer to 40 if you attempt it at 5pm on a Friday. We would not recommend that.
Coming from a Fort Liberty gate on the Hoke County side instead of from town? Call us at 910-864-9500 and we will give you the shorter way in.

What Drivers Around Raeford and Fayetteville Say
Raeford and Hoke County Questions
Is there a Chevy dealership in Raeford, NC?
No. There is no Chevrolet franchise anywhere in Hoke County. The closest new Chevrolet inventory to Raeford sits in Fayetteville, and Powers Swain Chevrolet is on Bragg Blvd, roughly 20 minutes east on NC-401.
How far is Powers Swain Chevrolet from Raeford?
About 20 miles, and most of it is a straight run east on NC-401. Plan on 25 to 30 minutes from the Hoke County Courthouse on North Main Street, a little more if you hit the Skibo Road stretch at rush hour.
Do you work with Fort Liberty families who live in Hoke County?
Constantly. Fort Liberty extends into Hoke County, so a large share of Raeford households have someone stationed there. We have sold to soldiers and their families from this address since 1961 and we understand PCS timelines, deployment schedules and the paperwork that comes with them.
Which Chevy models make the most sense for Hoke County drivers?
Trucks and SUVs, mostly. The Silverado 1500 and Colorado suit the county's farm, poultry and trades work. The Traverse and Tahoe fit the growing families moving into Hoke. The Equinox is the one most Raeford commuters land on for the daily NC-401 run.
Can I get my Chevy serviced if I live in Raeford?
Yes, and it is the same 20-minute drive. Our certified technicians use genuine GM parts, and you can book online instead of calling. Most Hoke County customers schedule a first appointment of the day and are back over the county line before lunch.
Is the drive from Raeford worth it versus buying closer to home?
Since Hoke County has no Chevrolet store, there is no closer option for a new Chevy. The practical question is which Fayetteville dealership you drive to. We are family owned at the same Bragg Blvd address since 1961, which is a longer track record than most of what you will find in this market.
Do you handle financing for Hoke County buyers?
Yes. You can start the application online before you make the drive from Raeford, which means the paperwork is largely done when you arrive. Bring a pay stub and your license and most of the visit is the test drive rather than the desk.
What is the best route from Raeford to the dealership?
Take NC-401 east out of Raeford toward Fayetteville. It becomes Raeford Road inside the city. Stay on it, then cut north to Bragg Blvd. We are at 4709 Bragg Blvd, on the Fort Liberty side of town, so most Hoke County drivers never cross the busiest part of downtown.
Do you have trucks suited to poultry and farm work in Hoke County?
Yes. Hoke County runs on agriculture and poultry processing, and that work needs real payload rather than a lifestyle truck. We stock Silverado 1500, Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD alongside the midsize Colorado, so you can match the truck to the actual load instead of overbuying.
Can I trade in my current vehicle when I drive over from Raeford?
Yes, bring it with you. We appraise on site, so you can arrive in your current vehicle and leave in the new one on the same trip. That matters more when you are driving 20 miles each way rather than crossing town.
