Should I invest it in my car?

This year, consider being practical and investing a portion of your tax refund on preventive vehicle maintenance is likely to pay long-term dividends.

Here are some reasons why investing your Tax Refund in your vehicle will reward you in the long run.

  • Car care will extend the life of your vehicle. With proper care your vehicle should give you around 200,000 miles of a safe and dependable ride.
  • Less likely to have an unexpected breakdown. Taking care of regular maintenance and not ignoring minor problems might reduce the possibility of a need for major repairs.
  • Increases fuel economy, saves money on gas.
  • Identify hidden issues. A good inspection might detect minor problems that otherwise might go unnoticed.
  • Keep it safe. A need for an alignment or ineffective brakes can put you and your loved ones at risk. An inspection or a routine maintenance might uncover hidden issues.
  • Increase resale value. Invest now on routine maintenance. It will give you a bigger return in the long run.
  • Pamper your car to a well deserved treat. Engine flush, transmission fluid change, fuel system cleaning, radiator flush or new all around filters. Any of these will make your car feel better.
