Highway Travel
Over the river and through the woods to grandmother's house we go. Is your car of truck ready for long distance highway travel? Summer or Winter, be prepared.

Let's take a few minutes and see if your car or truck is ready to carry you and your family on this trip. Two of the biggest reasons for break downs are tires and cooling systems failures (radiator).

Before you make this trip, stop by one of our stores and let our trusted mechanics look your car over. We will be able to check the tires, suspension, brakes, belts, hoses and a whole lot of other things in short order to let you know if everything is ready to go. |

Now, even after a trip to the shop, a car is a mechanical device and as we all know they are prone to breaking down at the most inconvenient times. So let's follow the Boy Scout Motto and "Be Prepared".
Here are a few items that should be in your car all the time:
1. Spare tire if the car came with one
2. Jack and lug wrench - also make sure you know the location of the special socket for your locking lug nuts
3. First aid kit
4. Roadside emergency kit
These normally include items such as jumper cables, breakdown triangles, small tools and some even have a small air compressor.

When going on a long trip, try to plan for the type of weather you will be driving into. A few suggested items to carry along would be:
1. Non-perishable snacks
2. A couple gallons of drinking water - for if the car overheats or you are broke down and need something to drink
3. A couple of large garbage bags. Why the garbage bags? If you need to change a flat tire you can put it on the ground to protect your clothes and they make good impromptu rain coats
4. Flash light - you can pick up a hand crank operated flash light from most sporting goods stores - so no need to worry about batteries

These are just some easy to find suggested items, but think about your trip and plan accordingly.
Make sure you have a roadside assistance phone number you can use to get help with a tow or if you run out of gas. With that said, don't forget your cell phone charger. |
