Holidays are in full swing and so are the road trips! With this being one of the busiest times for traveling on the roads, taking care of your vehicle should be a top priority to make sure you and your loved ones get to your destination safely. We at Larry H Miller Liberty Toyota have put together a short check list of the top "to-do" to get your road trip off to a smooth start.
1. Basic Vehicle Checkup. Call you local Toyota dealer and schedule an appointment to have a check up done on your vehicle. Be sure to have wipers and fluids checked by the Service Department and get the oil changed if needed. Keeping these basics checked will help your vehicle's reliability on the road.

2. Check your tires. Before you put the rubber to the road, check those tires to make sure they are in driving shape. Do you know what to look for? Inspect the thread to be sure there is enough left on the tire for long periods of travel. See any tears or bulging? Get them changed out at your local dealership. Make sure the air pressure is set to your owner's manual suggestion - too much air and too little air will cause a tougher drive.
3. Emergency Check! Whether you are city driving or heading out to the country, be sure to always plan ahead for any issues that may arise. Some emergency items to make sure are in your vehicle are: water, blankets, jumper cables, flares, snacks, and a flashlight.
Be safe out there while you travel and have a holiday season!
