Mechanic Monday tip: before a long holiday drive, check the simple things the night before instead of the morning of. Tire pressure while the tires are still cold, oil level, washer fluid, and every exterior light. Ten minutes in the driveway beats an hour on the shoulder.

Myth Buster Friday: you have to change your oil every 3,000 miles. That guideline is decades old. Most modern engines running synthetic oil go 5,000 to 10,000 miles between changes, and your owner's manual has the real number for your vehicle. Changing too early wastes money, and waiting too long costs a whole lot more than that. Not sure where yours lands? Ask us and we will look it up with you.
