WHAT IS A WHEEL ALIGNMENT ?

Wheel alignment is important to the health of your car or truck. All of the elements that make your car go straight are called "alignment".

If you hit a big pothole, for example, it is possible to bump alignment components out of their carefully calculated locations, throwing out your balance and suspension.

Some shops try to make it seem like rocket science, but wheel alignment is a fairly straightforward affair. The inclusive term "wheel alignment" involves three main measurements -- caster, camber, and toe. These measurements have standards that a technician uses as targets of adjustment.
In other words, get as close as you can to the right measurement.

With Gas Prices going up, here is a couple of quick tips to save $$

Tire Inflation
Proper tire inflation is crucial for increasing gas mileage. Poor inflation can decrease fuel economy by 3-4 km per gallon (km/L) or more. For proper inflation check tires when they’re cold and not after you’ve been driving for an extended period of time. The proper inflation pressure (PSI) for your car is usually listed inside the driver’s side doorframe. 


Keep The Petal Off The Metal
Accelerating quickly or stopping suddenly burns a lot of gas. To help in increasing gas mileage, slowly accelerate after a light or stop sign and give yourself plenty of braking distance when driving. Constant fluctuations in speed while driving can also affect fuel performance by up to 20% (EPA estimate).

Get back to nature
Consider shutting off the air conditioner, opening the windows and enjoying the breeze. It may be a tad warmer, but at lower speeds you'll save fuel. That said, at higher speeds the A/C may be more efficient than the wind resistance from open windows and sunroof.

Get The Junk Out Your Trunk!
Unless you’re living out of your trunk, you probably have a few items that can be tossed or stored elsewhere. Take a look and you might be surprised on what’s lingering back there just waiting to be removed. It’s estimated that for every 100 pounds you have in your trunk up to 1 MPG may be lost. What better reason to finally clear out that trunk!
 
Use The Cruise
If you’re maintaining the same speed for more than a few minutes or are taking a road trip, put on the cruise control. The cruise control feature can drastically help for increasing gas mileage.
