Kudos to you for wanting to take better care of your car! Here are some tips for a few good places to start:
  • Consider adding
    collision insurance
    to your car insurance policy so that you can get your vehicle professionally repaired if you’re in an accident
  • Clean the interior and exterior regularly
  • Rotate your tires every 7,500 miles
  • Change your oil every 5,000 miles or so
  • Properly store your car whenever possible
In addition to these tips, you may also want to start a
