Find out when the dealership's sales targets are due. This will often be at the end of a month or quarter. At this point, the dealership can offer you much greater discounts than at other times, because they can stand to lose substantial bonuses.

If you live in the desert be sure to have at least a gallon of water for yourself & more to put in the car if it over heats. A rag to dampen & place on your head to help avoid heat stroke. Feminine napkins make great sterile swabs for any injury.

submitted by Shaun115 2009-07-25 05:25:23 am


Many older vehicles come very close to the line of acceptable tolerances when it comes to smog. Give yourself a little advantage with a fresh oil change, new spark plugs, and make sure the car is completely warmed up. Older CAT converters need to be warm.
