Hello , everyone, for those of us on the go.. Most of us.. Its a run and run kind of life, especially in Socal.. Los Angeles San Diego - orange county.. I live near Orange County , work and go to school in San Diego , and have family and friends in LA AND SD.. boy do i put miles on my cars.. Lets see MY old car hit 300,000 , before the transmission gave out .. I have another car reaching that mark within the next year or two and my others,,, are getting good mileage on them.. Its the price I pay to live in big house in the middle of no where..?? But we all makes choices and i have to adapt.. Now back to my tips for people on the go like me..
MY CAR TIPS.. WHAT TO CARRY FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME ALWAYS ON THE GO..
1) Always check tire pressure- proper pressure prevents flat tires - and increases better gas mileage.
2) Always check radiator levels.. check for leaks... Coolant bottle..
3) Carry first aid kit.. - include wipes for spills or general clean up.
4) Have a booster jump starter , not jumper cables,,. but a actual booster.. I bought mine at Costco , matches my challenger color scheme , black and red with carbon fiber..
5) Carry extra clothing- you never know about accidents.. or if its gets too hot , your clothes get sweaty and stinky.. cold and hot weather clothes..
6) Snack bars.. crackers , chips , peanuts.. I'm always hungry and at times , or all the time in traffic I get hungry.. so i have something to snack on..
7) I carry a cooler with water and soda's.. in case i get thirsty and or need a booster drink.. Like i said I live in Orange County , go to work and school in San Diego and visit family and friends in LA - SD - RIVERSIDE. busy me.. huh..
8) Carry a pocket knife or what in your car?? Why?? Simple you never know if you get in a car crash and the seat belt gets smashed , locked or what. Use the knife to cut the belt.. or better yet use a strong pair of scissors,, It may save your life.. I learned this tip form Navy Seals I trained with during my career.. It makes sense.. Well it does to me..
These are my 10 great tips.. and what I carry in my car.. but remember I live and breathe in my car.. I eat , drink, sleep ,, take naps during sons football practise.. Think about it I get up early and sleep late. so I have to find times to nap..
9)Carry Windex or window cleaner and car detail - Mothers or Meguiars detail.. and of course a microfiber polish cloth.. CA DUSTER to get rid of dust.. In case windows or car get dirty between car washes.. I have to look good.. Its a black car and anyone that ever owned a black car.. Its a daily battle...
10) Lastly , make sure you have your car registration - insurance card - and handy dandy flashlight.. if car battery dies at night you have a flashlight to look around car and trunk... or make sure it works,.
I know it seems like a lot of things to carry , but I have to have these things because I'm on the go.. and I have no time to stop fro drinks , or snacks,. and if I can boost my battery or add water or coolant to my car why not? It beats waiting for TRIPLE AAA. or Insurance Co's to help you out.. These are my Thursday's tips and make adjustments to your own needs. I guess a blanket , gloves and boots for cold weather people..
Thank you for your time and happy cruising around SO CAL.. I know I do ,, I have a great wife and family , beautiful home and a great career and my dream car.. and.. last but not least I live in Beautiful SO CAL.. great sunny weather with great sight and sounds. We get to see the best beaches , mountains , parks, lakes ,, and see some of the prettiest cars in the world. We and the world knows how much the Californians love their cars--- rides,-- whips... or what.. From Muscle car to Low Riders with outrageous paint jobs.. if you love cars.. You can see all they styles on any given day or weekend.. Because we all take pride in showing off our rides... Enjoy your commute and if you see Black beauty .. around SOCAL.. WAVE.. if i see you I will wave back.
