Temperatures are surely dropping and that can mean bad news for your vehicle, especially when you’re ready to head out for the day. Those diving temperatures overnight can turn your vehicle into a popsicle and nothing is worse than shivering for the entire duration of your ride. This week, I want to help you warm up your vehicle and make you toasty warm faster than before. Check out my tips below and stop in to see us for a test drive if your vehicle is on the older side and it’s time to upgrade!

Don’t idle, drive.

I use to think that turning my vehicle on and letting it idle for a while might actually be doing something. In fact, if you hop in and head out, your vehicle with warm up faster! HOW?! Well, when your vehicle is moving, the engine is working hard and creating heat which then makes its’ way into your cabin. If you leave your vehicle idling in your driveway, your engine isn’t working to create that heat. So, if you’re going to let it idle, give it a few minutes and then hit the road!

Turn it off.

According to the Environmental Defense Fund, it is actually beneficial to turn your vehicle’s engine off if you are waiting for more than 10 seconds. Why? Well, by sitting at a stop light idling, you’re actually wasting money and fuel. But will my car cool down? Nope! It would take more than just 10 seconds for your vehicle to cool down. So, you’ll still stay warm while saving fuel!

Invest in Block Heaters.

We all like to have that little remote starter in our vehicle to help warm up the vehicle. But we recommend investing in a block heater. Not only are these less expensive, block heaters can be set on a timer to do essentially what a remote starter does but instead of warming up your vehicle, a block heater is designed to warm up your actual engine. So, we recommend the block heater over a remote starter!

Friends, are you ready for the next big thing from Kia? We knew you would be and that’s why we’re sharing some important information on the all-new 2020 Kia Telluride! Debuted at the 2019 North American International Auto Show, the Telluride made a big statement to drivers who are ready to go the distance behind the wheel of a new powerfully capable SUV. Tell me more… Tell me more. Alright, you suckered me into telling you more about this baby, so sit back, relax, and let’s ride… Telluride style.

Capability is no problem for the Telluride, with a 291 horsepower 3.8-liter V6 engine, this SUV is ready to be the flagship of all SUVs. Plus, with the available self-leveling rear suspension and available active on-demand all-wheel drive, going beyond the great unknown is not only thrilling but a luxurious experience, as well.

How many can it fit? Wow – are you already thinking about packing up the kiddos and friends to head out? We thought so and that’s why we came prepared with answers. The all-new Telluride can fit up to 8 passengers in complete comfort thanks to the available double-stitched, quilted and passed NAppa leather seat trim, and ceiling mounted climate vents.

One of our favorite parts about the all-new 2020 Kia Telluride is that this bad boy was designed in America for America. Proudly assembled at the Kia manufacturing plant in West Point, Georgia, the Telluride is ready to rock and roll while making a huge statement to other SUVs to back down.

While the 2020 Telluride hasn’t officially been released yet, you can get more information about features and specs on the Kia page, linked here. From capability to gadgets and gizmos, we’re excited to see where the Telluride will take you in the future. What’s your favorite feature this SUV offers?

Servicing your vehicle isn’t just a once a year type of thing or an every once in a while habit. It’s a year-round task that you need to keep up with in order to keep your vehicle in great shape. We know – servicing your ride can be a daunting task and to me, it can be a big pain in the butt. We want to make that easier for you and your vehicle. This week we are sharing with you our guide on year-round services that you should stay on top of. Check it out below and don’t forget to check out our service and parts offers to save yourself some cash when you stop into service. Alright – let’s get started!

5 Year-Round Car Care Tips:

1. Windshield Wipers – An easy and quick checkup can help keep your windshield wipers in great shape and will help you see when out on the road. Replace worn wiper blades and frames, and check on the rubber squeegee. Think about investing in wipers specifically designed for the current season you are in for the best results.
2. Check The Fluids – No matter what type of fluid, you should be checking at the beginning of each new season. From your engine oil, windshield wiper fluid, coolant, brake fluid, and more – check them to see if they are full or need to be flushed out completely.
3. Lighting – Winter is known for being dark but summer months can sometimes call for late night drives which means that you’ll need your headlights. If your headlights are dirty, dim, dying or none of the previous, it’s a smart choice to check up on your entire lighting system to ensure you’ll have no problems when you hop in when the roads are dark.
4. Tires – Checking up on your tires is an easy and quick task that won’t have you wasting much time and won’t require extreme expertise in order to figure out. Simply check your tires to ensure that the tread is still in good shape and check the tire’s PSI. If you’re not sure how to do this, give us a call or stop in to see us for help.
5. Battery – Extreme temperatures are known for killing a battery and if you can’t remember the last time you had your battery tested, it’s probably time. Whether you’re ready to have your battery tested or replaced altogether, it’s a good idea to check up on your battery more than once in a while. A simple service check-up can keep your vehicle from dying on the side of the road.
