GETTING CAR- READY FOR SPRING AND SUMMER ROAD TRIPS!!

Like it not, the weather in the south can change at moments notice.
It's now May and today it's 78 degrees and the wind is cool for a nice spring day, but nights have been cooler down in the 50's! You may want to take the time to have your car serviced and then you can be ready at the moment's notice for a road trip with no worries!

First get your car serviced

Have your transmission, oil and brake fluid changed.  The winter can bring extreme temperatures and this can make your coolant system work overtime, so be sure to have the antifreeze, hoses and radiator checked. Don't forget to have your tires rotated and inspected. This can also help your fuel economy! Also have your windshield wipers replaced if they are 6 months are older.

Update your First-aid kit

I am sure you were reminded when you first started driving to be ready for anything when your on the road! Always travel with jumper cables, a small shovel, kitty litter, or sand for traction.

Be sure to update all batteries in flash-lights. Make sure you have replaced all blankets, energy bars, water, waterproof matches and gloves in the car. Also update your first aid medical kit.

Once you have your car has been maintained, you are now ready for a early Spring road trip, hopefully with no breakdowns! Have fun, be safe and drive smart!
