It’s November--time to think about Thanksgiving and going to Grandma’s house. Or maybe to visit your childhood friend, where Thanksgivings together has been a tradition since Kindergarten. Wherever you’re going, a lot of people will be on the road. We want you to be ready, to get your car ready, and to be safe above all. Safety First While we’d never want you to get stranded, getting your car ready for that trip is critical for your peace of mind. You have to consider not only yourself but your family’s safety. And also consider the road conditions during this time of year.

The best time to get a coolant flush is before you need one, of course.

If you’re a millennial, chances are you’re very tech-savvy. Chances are you were born with a smartphone in one hand and knew how to use it the instant you saw it. You also know your way around apps and have spent the better part of your childhood teaching people with more seniority how to navigate online. If that sounds like you, have you ever considered a career in the auto repair industry? You’ve Been Told to Get a Traditional College Degree Getting a traditional college degree doesn’t sound so inviting all the time, does it? People just a couple of years older than you (maybe your older brothers and sisters) now have debt from their educations that will take them years, or decades, to repay. Every time the mailman comes to the door or they receive phone calls, they’re terrified at the bills that are accumulating. The time for being an indentured slave is long gone.
