Old man winter is almost gone and the sun rays are breaking through the clouds, which means it is time to open the garage and wake the summer car from its hibernation. The Honda Service team at the Houston Honda dealer have put together this checklist that can save any car owner time, money, and headaches this summer.

The first step is checking the air pressure in the tires. Seasonal temperature changes affect tire pressures. Poor tire inflation affects ride quality and gas mileage; remember that an over-inflated tire is just as bad as an under-inflated tire. Don’t forget to inflate the spare tire and check that the roadside tools (jack, lug-wrench, and wheel lock if necessary) are working properly.

Next make sure all of the fluids are full including radiator fluid, engine oil, brake fluid, power steering fluid and wiper fluid. Make sure to pay special attention to the HOT and COLD level indicators and only fill to the correct line. Adding too much oil or fluids can damage sensitive engine components.

Check that the battery is fully charged and the terminals are free of corrosion. Nothing is worse for a car battery than high heat combined with high humidity. Most auto parts stores will test a battery for free.

An oft-overlooked piece of safe summer driving is the condition of the windshield wipers. They should be free of cracks and the steel clips should be clear of the windsheild surface. A replacement set of wiper blades costs around $20 and can really take the worry out of summer driving.

Once that is all complete check the serpentine belts for cracks and tightness. A constant squeaking noise is the early warning sign of impending belt failure. This belt typically runs the A/C compressor, alternator, and power steering so keeping a close eye on it can be the difference between a good running car and catastophe.

If you don’t want to do your own pre trip inspection bring your car to Russell&Smith Honda’s Service Department. Don’t trust amatuer mechanics. With their well-equipped shops, OEM parts and the factory certified technicians, Russell&Smith Honda can guarentee a wonderful and trouble-free summer road trip. There can be lots of stress planning a summer trip, but a solid inspection can provide assurance that your vehicle won’t be a problem.

Winter has passed and temperatures are now nearing extreme highs and no relief until fall, every car owner has to consider the terrible effect that the heat can have on an unserviced vehicle. The service team at Russell&Smith Ford have offered to share this checklist that can save any car owner time, expense, and aggravation this summer.

The obvious first step is to check the tire pressure. As the weather changes the air pressure in the tires changes. Poor tire inflation affects ride quality and safety; remember that an over-inflated tire is just as potentially harmful as an under-inflated tire. Don’t forget to inflate the spare tire and check that the roadside tools (jack, lug-wrench, and wheel lock if necessary) are working properly.

Next make sure all of the fluids are topped off including radiator fluid, engine oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid and wiper fluid. Make sure to pay close attention to the HOT and COLD level indicators and only fill to the proper line. Overfilling fluids is wasteful and could lead to premature malfunctions

Check that the battery is completely charged and the battery terminals are free of corrosion. Nothing is worse for a car battery than high heat combined with high humidity. Most auto parts stores will test a battery for free.

An oft-overlooked piece of safe summer driving is the condition of the windshield wipers. There should be no cracks and the steel clips should be clear of the glass surface. A new set of wiper blades costs around $20 and can really take the stress out of summer driving.

Once that is all complete check the serpentine belts for cracks and tightness. A repetitive squeaking is the first warning sign of impending belt failure. This belt typically runs the A/C compressor, alternator, and water pump so keeping a close eye on it can be the difference between a good running car and disaster.

If these tasks seem dauntings bring your car to Russell&Smith Ford’s Service Department. Don’t trust amatuer mechanics. Using OEM parts in a professional shop staffed with factory certified technicians, Russell&Smith Ford can provide a safe and trouble-free summer vacation.

Houston has many choices when it comes to hiring a mover. Some movers charge by the piece and some movers charge hourly. Some movers will offer you a guaranteed flat rate and some movers are actual firefighters! Regardless of what you choose, remember to plan your moving day for Houston movers carefully.

The typical hourly rate for a crew of two is close to $75.00 and $95.00 or more for a crew of 3. Always choose a 3 man crew unless your move is small with nothing heavy. Three men help speed up the job and more guys walking to the truck means the less time the truck is unattended.

You will be greatly rewarded if you plan your move well in advance. Your move will finish earlier and there will be less complications and mishaps. Being prepared means your things will packed and packed properly. Being prepared means you will keep packing expenses to a minimum. Besides, on moving day, you will be very busy supervising the move and directing the movers.

Always pack well in advance. Moving is a big job and the more time you have to prepare for it, the better it will be. The minute you know you will be moving, start preparing, even if your move is 6 months away.

If you can prepare your move this much in advance, consider yourself lucky. If you book your move early, you won’t be stuck with high rates. Start packing the things you know you won’t need. Start tossing the items you know you will throw away. You can collect similar items in the same boxes and pack more effectively.

There are more reasons to pack early than not. Planned packing makes your move more organized and efficient. Your boxes will be better organized and you will know where everything is. You will be able to collect packing material for free or at lower cost since you can start saving supplies early. Also, the chore of unpacking will be much easier, because instead of throwing various things in boxes from all over the house, your boxes will packed with similar contents that will be put away in the same place.

Please don’t forget that you will have less breakage if you take the time to carefully wrap and pack. Breakable objects take a lot of tissue and last minute packers always run out. They are left using newspapers or paper towels. Then when those supplies are gone, there is no way to safely pack the remaining breakables. Boxes get dropped, they fall off the dolly, and they rattle and shift in the truck. Being prepared is the golden rule of moving.
