Just wanted to pass along a message of happy holiday to you and your family. We’ll be taking it mostly easy this month, but look foward to the car shows in January.

Now is a great time to get some good deals on auto parts. December is typically a slow month for auto parts retails, so they usually give good deals right now. Most people wait until the spring to fix their cars, and all the good deals dry up. If you have any repairs, now is a good time to

Some good things to look at in December. Start with the tires, those are key for good handling in slick weather. Now is a good time to get a deal on those. Check the wiper blades and air filters. Starters and batteries like to freeze up in the winter, check and see how yours is. You don’t want to be left for stranded in a storm.

Someone posed a question. With oil down to $42.24 a barrel, what does that mean for auto parts. What does that mean for cars.

The first answer is that everyone will be back on the roads. If gas is $1.50 a gallon, then everyone will start driving again. I remember during the summer with gas at $4, my commute was 1/3 shorter because so few people were on the roads.

For car parts, it doesn’t mean much. If you find yourself driving more, you need to up the maintenance. Such things as oil changes, spark plugs, O2 Sensor, tire pressure and such should all be kept a close eye on.

Other than than, not much changes on the automotive parts side. If you are in the industry, we should see increased demand for maintenance parts. If you are a driver, just enjoy the ride! We know it won’t last forever.
