✅ Rotate your tires regularly for more even wear
✅ Have your brakes inspected and pay attention to unusual sounds or vibrations
✅ Check and replace air filters when needed
✅ Replace worn wiper blades so you’re ready for changing visibility and weather
✅ Keep an eye on fluid levels, tire pressure, and dashboard warning lights

A little attention now can help keep your car, truck, or SUV ready for commutes, errands, road trips, and everything in between. If your vehicle is due for service, McCloskey Motors’ state-of-the-art service centers are here to help with straight talk and no pressure.

Towing with confidence starts with knowing your numbers: not guessing. 🛻

A quick towing refresher for Colorado Springs truck and SUV owners:

• Towing capacity is the maximum trailer weight your vehicle is rated to pull. Always use the trailer’s loaded weight, not its empty or advertised weight.
• Payload is the weight the vehicle itself can carry: including passengers, cargo, hitch equipment, and the trailer’s tongue weight. Tongue weight commonly accounts for about 10–15% of a properly balanced trailer.
• Check the owner’s manual for the vehicle’s exact tow rating and recommended equipment. The door-jamb sticker typically lists GVWR and axle ratings, which help confirm how much total weight the vehicle can safely handle.
• Hitch classes and receiver sizes matter. Class I and II commonly use a 1¼-inch receiver, while Class III and IV often use a 2-inch receiver. Class V commonly uses a 2½-inch receiver: but the vehicle, hitch, ball mount, and trailer ratings must all work together.
• Larger or heavier trailers may require trailer brakes. Make sure the brake controller and trailer connection are set up correctly before moving.

Before hooking up, verify the loaded trailer weight, tongue weight, hitch rating, tires, lights, safety chains, and brake requirements in the owner’s manual. When in doubt, stop and check: safe towing is worth the extra minute.

Many of our trucks and SUVs are built for real-world towing work, from boats and campers to trailers and job equipment. Our team can help match a vehicle to your needs with straight talk and no guesswork.

The best summer plans don’t have to be complicated. ☀️

For an easy Colorado Springs outing, try:

🧺 Pack a picnic and relax by the water at Memorial Park or Quail Lake.
🐾 Enjoy a leisurely, dog-friendly stroll at a local park: just remember water and plenty of shade.
🌿 Take in the scenery at Garden of the Gods during a quiet morning or late afternoon.
🍽️ Settle in for a patio dinner in Old Colorado City or downtown Colorado Springs.
🎶 Check local calendars for outdoor concerts, markets, and community events happening around town.
🍦 Finish with a cool treat from a favorite neighborhood shop.

A little sunshine, good food, and time together can turn an ordinary summer afternoon into a favorite memory. Before heading out, check current hours, event schedules, and pet-access rules for your destination.

From our Colorado Springs family to yours, enjoy the season! 🌄

A warranty should be easy to understand before you turn the key. 🔑

When shopping for a pre-owned vehicle, ask what protection is included: and what may be available separately:

✅ Powertrain coverage typically applies to major components like the engine, transmission, and drivetrain.

✅ Bumper-to-bumper coverage is generally broader, covering more vehicle systems and components, subject to exclusions.

✅ Remaining factory warranty may still apply, depending on the vehicle’s age, mileage, and original warranty terms.

✅ Dealer-provided coverage or a protection plan may offer additional peace of mind, but it’s important to review the contract, covered parts, exclusions, term, and claim process.

Also ask about the deductible. A lower upfront cost doesn’t always mean lower out-of-pocket costs when repairs are needed.

Straight talk makes for a better car-buying experience. Before you decide, we’ll help you understand what’s covered, what isn’t, and which questions to ask: so you can move forward with confidence and no guesswork.

Thinking about trading in your vehicle? A little preparation can make the evaluation process smoother: without the guesswork. 🚙

Before you bring it in:

✅ Give it a thorough clean inside and out. Clear out personal items, vacuum the interior, and wash off Colorado road dust and grime.

✅ Gather maintenance records. Service receipts, oil-change history, tire information, and repair records help provide a clearer picture of your vehicle’s care.

✅ Take care of simple items. Replace burned-out bulbs, top off essential fluids, and check tire pressure. For larger repairs, consider the cost before moving forward: there’s no need to over-invest.

✅ Bring all documentation. Have your title or loan information, registration, photo ID, and any warranty paperwork ready if applicable.

✅ Bring every key and accessory. Extra keys, remotes, owner’s manuals, floor mats, and removable equipment can help complete the vehicle’s history.

At McCloskey Motors, we believe in straight talk and a friendly, no-pressure experience. When you’re ready, our team can help you understand your options and find a personalized path forward here in Colorado Springs.
