Article of the Week

With record highs across the country, also good to keep in mind a few basic things you can do to keep your girl from getting TOO hot. List starts with some simple tips: park in the share, crack windows, and put up a window shade. Or you can go further and buy a car cover, get the windows tinted, and go through your coolant system.

Fun Fact of the Week
