Preventive Maintenance vs Repair
Tire rotations...engine diagnostics...belt and hose checks...not the kind of thing you have the time or the money for, right? My car's running good, it'll be fine...
According to the Car Care Council, Americans spent an estimated 2 billion dollars last year due to vehicle neglect. Think of it this way: Which is more expensive, replacing your battery, or having a battery die and leave you stranded, paying for a service call and then replacing the battery anyway? In the overall scheme of things, getting your car serviced regularly is the best way for you to save money on automotive costs, and save time on easily avoidable mechanical problems.
