Road Trip: What to do to Save Money and Gas
Filed under: Travel
Temperatures for most of Canada (sorry west coast!) are hovering at 30C and higher as summer is in full swing - for many of us, dreams of cooling off means escaping the city on a road trip.
But before you toss everything in the trunk and throw a dart on a map, is there something you're forgetting? Snacks? Best friend? Tunes?
The one thing many of us forget about - car maintenance. Especially with current cars on the road, the tune up is a thing of the past. Most cars only need a twice a year maintenance, excluding those in extreme environments.
So what to do to help the car love the road trip as much as the passengers?
Your car depreciates by 50 per cent the miniute you drive it off the lot, so wouldn't it be nice if the car could earn it back?
Would you believe we're still touring around with winter tires on both of our cars? In fairness, we thought we'd be selling one of them, but ever since we decided to keep both, any excuses we did have for putting off the switch are all beginning to wear rather thin.
