Need to plan a day out that will be both fun for the whole family and educational? Well, you won't have to go very far. Take a ride down to the Shiloh Museum of Ozark History and learn the rich history that has occurred right here in the Arkansas Ozarks. Let's take a closer look at some of this history and show you exactly what you can expect to find on your visit to the museum. Prehistoric Ozarks It can be easy to take for granted the fact that people have lived in this same land for thousands of years. You'll be astounded by artifacts left by Ice Age nomads as much as 15,000 years ago. You'll see the hunting tools they used to take down mighty beasts such as the mastodon and the musk ox, as well as examples of the cave art these prehistoric people left behind in their travels. more As the climate in the Ozarks became warmer after the end of the Ice Age, these nomadic hunters began to settle down in one place, and their lifestyle changed accordingly. You can see the implements they used to gather nuts and berries, and the fishing tools they used to make a living off the rivers. This area was left almost entirely depopulated by disease by the time European settlers arrived here, leaving many questions that remain a mystery today. From Early Settlers to the Civil War As European settlers arrived along the eastern coast and in the Cherokee heartlands, Osage Indian settlers moved into the Ozarks to find new land to work. They established the area's first farmsteads, orchards, and mills, and you'll see tools and other artifacts leftover from this first agricultural society to dwell in our region. In 1828 the Arkansas Territory was officially opened for settlement, driving the Osage further west. Less than half a century later, the Civil War came to Arkansas. This time period is also around when early cameras came in to use, and some of the museum's impressive 500,000 photographs in the Mary D. Parsons Photograph Collection document the people who lived right here where our neighborhoods stand today. Modern Times That collection of photographs continues to document life in the Ozarks right up until the present day. There are great examples of memorabilia from earlier 20th century residents of the region, like a jigsaw puzzle from the 1930s or a vintage camera that long predates digital technology. There are also fascinating war relics, such as a World War I poster and a “Patriot” radio used to get the latest news from the front in World War II. Learning this local history will show you the deep roots our community is founded upon. We try to keep that sense of community alive with how we do business. Come on in and see what difference that makes in your dealership experience. Stop by at Rath Mitsubishi today and let us help you!

Mitsubishi employs top-quality manufacturing, quality control, and automotive engineering processes to produce trouble-free and enjoyable vehicles. However, quality does not eliminate the need for maintenance. Mitsubishi service is recommended to keep your car in the best condition possible. 8 Mitsubishi Services Covered in the Warranty 1. Corrosion Perforation Repair Mitsubishi covers the repairs or replacement when the metal panel body-sheet of your new vehicle develops corrosion from the inside, within 12 years from the warranty start date. The car should be properly maintained, and rusting must be due to defects in craft or material. The coverage does not apply if corrosion is caused by improper maintenance. more 2. Tire Change Tires sustain vehicle weight, transmit drive and braking force, control driving direction while turning or on straight roads, and absorb the vibration from the road. Buyers of new Mitsubishi vehicles are provided with free flat tire assistance within the first five years after purchase. 3. Lock Out Assistance Car lockouts are quite common. They happen even to the most diligent people. No need to panic if you accidentally lock your keys in your car as Mitsubishi provides reliable and professional lockout assistance. 4. Jump Starting It can be frustrating when your car's ignition fails to fire up, whether from a frozen fuel tank, worn-out spark plugs, failing alternator, a dead starter, or a weak battery. Luckily, the warranty includes 24/7 jump-starting service for five years. 5. Battery Change A car battery's main function is to start your car. Certain driving habits, low charge, and acid stratification can cause battery malfunction. Signs of a faulty battery include: Frequent jump-starting The engine cranking but does not start Electrical issues and dim lights Inconsistency; one day it starts fine and the next day it does not The warranty covers battery damage for the first two years, with an option for a third year or 62,500 miles after that. 6. Timing Belt and Powertrain Components Replacement The timing belt keeps the valves and pistons in ‘time' during operation. Its failure can cause serious internal engine damage, and the engine assembly might have to be replaced in severe cases. Mitsubishi covers damage to powertrain components like the timing belt for five years/60,000 miles from the warranty start date. 7. Transmission Repair The transmission system transfers power created in the engine to the wheels. Transmission repair is one of the most important maintenance practices due to the need for good transmission performance. Transmission repair is covered except for damage caused by the addition of faulty parts or the use of services not prescribed by the warranty manual. 8. Towing Service If your car runs out of gasoline, the engine overheats or fails to start; towing services might come in handy. Mitsubishi owners can enjoy a 24/7 roadside assistance service that includes towing to the nearest maintenance point. Mitsubishi offers an extensive service warranty, ensuring that you get high-quality repair and maintenance from your authorized Mitsubishi dealership. To benefit from the services covered in the warranty, contact Rath Mitsubishi in Springdale, AR.

The 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage and the Mirage G4 are unbeatable in terms of efficiency and affordability. While the two vehicles share a lot in common, they do have some notable distinctions. Exterior Styling and Trim Levels The first difference between these two great vehicles is their exterior appearance and classifications. The Mitsubishi Mirage is classified as a subcompact hatchback offered in four trims, while the G4 is a subcompact sedan offered in three trim levels. In terms of outward appearance, the Mirage G4 is a bit longer than the Mirage – 20 inches to be precise. more The base trims of the Mirage and the Mirage G4 come with 14-inch steel wheels. The wheels get upgraded as you go up the trim levels of the Mitsubishi Mirage. The top Mirage SE gets keyless entry and ignition while the Mirage GT is offered with 15-inch alloy wheels and xenon headlights. On the other hand, even the base trim of the Mirage G4 gets keyless entry and ignition. Pricing and Affordability The two vehicles are designed as proof that you do not have to break the bank to drive a decent car. The two vehicles, however, have different price tags. The starting price for the Mirage is $13,995, while that of the Mirage G4 is $14,995. The two cars are fitted with a similar engine that is incredibly efficient. Buying either of these cars assures you of money-saving in the long run due to the engines' efficiency. The fuel economy is also different in each car. The Mirage reaches an EPA estimation of 43 mpg on the highway, while the Mirage G4 reaches 41 mpg. Interior Features and Cabin Space Regardless of the Mirage you choose, each of these cars come standard with incredible interior features such as a USB port, Bluetooth connectivity, and a high-quality four-speaker sound system. Other common features include cruise control, tilt-only steering wheel, and automatic climate control. One key difference in the base trims of the Mirage and the Mirage G4 is that the G4 comes with a 7-inch touch screen display, which is absent in the Mitsubishi Mirage. The two vehicles also have ample cabin space to keep you feeling comfortable. The Mirage G4, however, has more cabin space than Mirage. The G4 has a passenger volume of 89.2 cubic feet. The Mirage offers a little more space at the truck for your groceries to compensate for the lost cabin space. The Mirage also has rear seat folding functionality as standard, designed to enlarge the cargo space further. Engine and Performance One thing that's identical between the 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage and the Mirage G4 is their power source. The two are powered by the same 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine producing 78 horsepower and 74 lbs.-ft of torque. Both cars' base trims give you either a five-speed manual transmission or an automatic continuously variable transmission (CVT). Again, as you go up the trim levels, all the two cars are offered with the CTV only. Whether you choose the Mitsubishi Mirage or the Mirage G4, you can rest assured that you get a modern car that is safe and surprisingly affordable.

Your Mitsubishi has many parts that help it operate efficiently, and one minor issue can lead to costly problems down the road. The trained technicians at dealership facilities know what to look for to keep your vehicle in peak condition. Here are seven services you can always find at your Mitsubish i dealer: 1. Oil and Filter Change The oil and filter are vital components to your Mitsubishi's engine performance and longevity. Frequent oil and filter changes keep the engine cool, prevents excessive engine wear, and ensures long term reliability. Skipping the recommended oil change intervals can cause engine sludge, obstructing oil passage, and restricting oil flow. Dealerships offer expert oil and filter change in all types of motor oil, including: more Conventional oil High-mileage oil Synthetic blend oil Full synthetic oil 2. Tire Rotation and Inflation Your vehicle's tires wear at different rates on the steering and drive axles. Front tires tend to wear much more quickly than rear tires. Proper tire rotation at your local dealership helps to even out the differential wear characteristics and maximize tread life. Inflation check is essential as underinflated tires significantly reduce durability, tread life, and fuel economy. 3. Brake Service The brake system needs regular checkups and servicing. Brake pads press against a metal disc to stop your car and will wear out over time. Luckily, dealership technicians will check the brake pads thickness during tire rotation and advice when you need to change them. The brake fluid might absorb water from the air, eventually corroding your internal brakes hydraulic system, and should be checked as well. 4. Fuel System Cleaning Carbon and dirt particles flow through your fuel system every second the engine is running. The flow of fuel is affected as the buildup grows, resulting in low fuel economy, loss of engine power, and decreased drivability. Visiting your dealership for fuel system cleaning will restore your engine's performance and economy. 5. OEM parts Dealerships only use and have a vast inventory of Original Equipment Manufacturer parts and accessories. Whether you want the expert technicians to install them for you or to take care of your repairs at home, the knowledgeable staff will help you get the quality car parts you need. 6. Differential Service The differential conveys input from the transmission to the wheels. Over time, the gear oil loses viscosity, lubricating the differential and wheel bearings less effectively. The technicians will also service the transfer case along with the differential. Mitsubishi provides a maintenance schedule for your vehicle's differential and transfer case fluids. 7. Transmission Fluid Service Just like motor oil, vehicle use contaminates the transmission fluid over time. The dealership technicians will check the transmission filter, clean the transmission pan, and generally make sure this crucial vehicle system is working correctly. Your Mitsubishi owner's manual offers guidelines on transmission filter and fluid changes. Servicing your car at the dealership is essential, and the right approach because you can be sure of quality maintenance and repair. Visit Rath Mitsubishi in Springdale, AR, for expert services.
