It’s officially summer which usually means more time spent on the road, heading to those vacation destinations. 

Is your vehicle road-worthy and ready for the challenge?

Before any road trip, you always hear that there are some basic things to check to help avoid you being stranded: tires, brakes, fluids, etc. 

Do you know how to check your fluids? No? We’ve got you covered! Here’s a short video from our friends at Cars.com with a quick overview of basic fluid checks and replenishment.

Tis the season for all things merry and bright, including car deals! We're sure you've heard that the end of the year is the best time to buy and we're here to confirm! Why the end of the year though?  We'll let you in on the auto-industry secrets. Just keep reading!
 

Believe it or not, big companies DO listen to their customers! You asked for an AWD Camry and Avalon and now you're getting one!  Even with everyone jumping on the SUV bandwagon, there is still a demand for that excellent family car and traditional sedan style vehicle.  You hear that? That's Mother Nature shaking her boots because with the new Dynamic Torque Control AWD system added to both of these hot cars, nothing she throws your way will stop you.
 

While it might not be a COMPLETE redesign of the Tacoma - because let's face it, it's still awesome - there have been significant improvements made to your favorite Toyota Taco for 2020.

If you've been hanging out under a rock, chances are you've heard about the completely redesigned 2019 Toyota RAV4. We haven't been able to quit talking about it, we're just so excited over the upgrades and fresh changes made! "Completely Redesigned" doesn't really get into the nitty gritty of just WHAT has changed, so we're here to break it down a bit for you.
