Let it snow! (but be prepared)
DART auto shares winter car preparation tips inspired by a blog called 'Snowshoeing in a Porsche,' which they recommend for its helpful advice and humor. They highlight a checklist of items drivers should review before winter arrives.
- The checklist covers brakes, tires, battery, coolant, heater and defroster, wipers, headlights, exhaust, a cell phone charger, and an emergency kit. These are key items to review before cold weather sets in.
- DART auto offers a Vehicle Inspection service that covers most items on this list. They note it may not cover the cell phone charger, adding a lighthearted touch.
- Readers are encouraged to visit the full blog post for a more detailed and humorous take on winter car readiness. DART auto closes the post with a simple reminder to stay safe.
During winter, keeping emergency supplies in your car is a smart habit. Recommended items typically include a snow brush, ice scraper, jumper cables, blankets, a flashlight, sand or kitty litter for traction, and basic tools. Being prepared for cold-weather breakdowns can make a difficult situation much safer and manageable.
We like this guy’s blog. Some great tips regarding what you should have in your car in the winter. We’ll summarize his list below, but reading the full blog post adds some humor to your day…so check out “Snowshoeing in a Porsche” here
