Road Trip Christmas Break

Many of us look forward to this time of the year as its a great time to load up the car and get away from it all, this post is just a simple few steps to make your road trip more successful.

Car Maintenance

If you’ve had you car recently serviced you should be find but I never hurts to check a few small thinks that could prevent your trip from turning into a disaster.

Check your engine oil
Check your coolant (make sure the car isn’t hot when doing this)
Inspect all your belts and pulleys for any sign of damage
Check your fluid, pads and rotors
Check Tyre tread and pressures
If possible pack a small tool kit with some basic tools to suit your vehicle

Planing and preparation

Plan your route
Mark all your stops on a map so you don’t miss out on anything
Pack smart (too much weight can be a fuel killer)
Make a road trip playlist ( essential )
Make sure your car has plenty of fuel before leaving a fuel source because in small towns petrol stations aren’t usually open late.

Stay safe and have a great trip.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year from Autocash.
