So, you bought your first brand new car! And you will probably drive to every friend’s house you ever had to show it off. Finding the highest gloss wax and shining it ever chance you get.

In 1955, a Ford Thunderbird cost $2,944.00. Today, the same car costs what my parents paid for their home, so buying a new car is no small investment. You want to do everything possible to ensure you get the best deal.

The more you notice about your vehicle, the more likely you'll be able to head off repair problems. Yep- even if you're mechanically challenged, you can still detect many common vehicle problems by using your eyes and nose.
