One of the most important aspects of towing safety is to never attempt to tow too heavy of a load. This means never exceeding your vehicle’s towing capacity and always using a trailer hitch that is both designed for…

New car buyers can drive away with peace of mind, knowing they have bumper-to-bumper coverage. When that runs out, the powertrain warranty remains in effect for several years longer. It's easy to understand the difference between these two warranties.

The powertrain warranty includes the engine, manual or automatic transmission, and front-, rear-, four- or all-wheel drivetrain. There are many parts and systems which will be repaired at little or no cost to the owner if these break within the coverage period. Drivers have a responsibility to handle routine scheduled maintenance...

By just keeping your gas tank full you are avoiding a lot of unnecessary issues with your vehicle. The less gas that you have in your tank, the more air that will be in the tank and that's not good. More air means that there is more condensation as well.

Condensation tends always to sink since it is much heavier than gas and it will eventually make its way into your fuel lines. If it's cold outside, all of this water in your lines will freeze, and your fuel lines will be clogged up with ice. If this…

The time will always arise when your vehicle needs maintenance or replacement parts, and if you perform your own maintenance, then there is the hard decision of where to buy those parts from. Aftermarket parts tend to be cheaper in cost, but there are problems that some don't consider when buying those aftermarket parts.

While it is true that both technologies cause the four wheels of a vehicle to be empowered in order to create more road surface traction, the similarities stop there.

Four-wheel-drive is a familiar term for most people as it has been available to the general public for quite some time. It utilizes a lower gear ration and a split differential to give positive traction to all four wheels of a vehicle.

The term horsepower refers to the amount of power that is behind a vehicle and has little to do with horses. It was used to measure the power of an engine in the 18th century by James Watt who wanted to show his potential customers just how much power was behind his steam engines. One horsepower is the same as a pony pulling 33 pounds for a minute.

If you want a powerful vehicle, then you want to look at exactly how much horsepower it has. The more horsepower it has, the more powerful, it will be and the more…
