Holiday Getaway
The 4th. of July holiday is fast approaching when scores of vacationers hit the highways. Don’t wait till the last minute to get an oil change, check your anti-freeze, tire pressure and wear, wipers, and the cars overall running condition. You need to make sure your spare tire is in usable condition, and it is important to take a roadside emergency kit along with a first aid kit with you. The old saying “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” holds true while on the highways. Maps are a no-brainer, and bottled water isn’t a bad idea to stash away. If you have a cell phone it can be a life saver under some circumstances. Oh yes I almost forgot! Make sure you have a jack that works along with the “proper” tire wrench. Some vehicles come with special lug-nuts that need a special adapter to remove them. By all means make sure its in your glove box. Have a safe and enjoyable summer and a great 4th of July. America might not be perfect, but its still the only country in the world where thousands are trying to “GET IN” and not “GET OUT!”
