Reasons for Checking Tire Pressure
There are many reasons it’s important to check your tire pressure, including reducing the possibility of a flat tire or a blowout from occurring. Air pressure should be checked in the tires once a month to make sure everything looks okay. Tire pressure needs to be at the correct inflation level so the vehicle handles optimally, from everyday driving around town to needing to make an emergency maneuver suddenly.

4 Reasons to Buy a Used Vehicle
It’s likely that your car is one of the most expensive purchases of your entire lifetime. For the majority of people, it rates right up there with buying a new house or even paying for college. A brand-new car is wonderful. It smells fresh, clean, and new. Still, some people prefer to buy a car that’s been gently used.
There are many good reasons to buy a used car instead of a brand-new one, and most of the reasons involve saving money. From less sticker shock to cheaper insurance and less depreciation, sometimes buying a gently used car just makes good sense. Rath Autos Resources NW realizes that every customer’s situation is different. So, if you’re trying to choose between buying a new car or a used one, we are happy to help. These are four reasons to buy a used vehicle.
Slower Depreciation
Many new cars depreciate about 10 percent during the first year of ownership. That’s in addition to the initial “drive-it-of-the lot” depreciation. That can add up quickly. Buying a used car instead of a new one helps you eliminate such rapid depreciation. Sometimes it’s hard to find a 1-year-old car, but often 2 and 3-year-old gently used vehicles are easier to locate.

Find Your Ride: SUV or Sedan?
Over the past decade, SUVs have exploded in the automotive market. In the past, if you wanted an SUV, you had only a handful of options to choose from and most were designed for functionality over comfort. Sedans were the norm, but all that has changed. Now the question for many car buyers is whether to pick a sedan or an SUV. If you’re in this boat, consider the pros and cons of each type of vehicle to find the right model for you and your lifestyle.
Comfort
Even just a few years ago, the comfort debate always went to the sedan segment. Most SUVs were truck-based, which meant a bumpy and rough ride. Although it is tough to beat the comfortable interior of a roomy mid-size or full-size sedan, crossover SUVs have come a long way to hold their own in this category over the past few years.
