It’s an exciting time of year, the kids are on holiday break, the gifts are wrapped and all that’s left to do is make the trek to visit our family a few hours away. Before you pack up your vehicle you need to take a few steps to protect your car. With the help of Shell we have gathered up a great list of must do’s before you take your precious cargo on the winter roads.
Tires
Have your tires inspected for air pressure, tread depth, and rotation.
Fluids
Have all fluids inspected and topped off.
Fuel
Add a full tank of high quality fuel.
Shell Nitrogen Enriched Gasolines contain 20% more active cleaning agents than before, helping protect engine’s intake valves and fuel injectors from performance-robbing gunk. No other gasoline protects better!
Engine
Change engine oil and oil filters
Are you a fan of road trips or would you rather jump on a plane. With a family of 5 we find it more fun and economical to pack up the SUV and make the 11 hour round trip drive to visit family. It’s a fun adventure and the kids look forward to all of the fun we have road tripping.
According to the Car Care Council, a family of four travelling 1,000 miles round trip could save $1,000 by driving instead of flying
· The average cost for a family of four to drive 1,000 mile round trip is $350
· The average cost for a family of four to fly 1,000 mile round trip is $1,441
