Between high interest rates and "market adjustments," the average new car payment is enough to make anyone sweat in 2026. But here’s a secret: The cheapest car you’ll ever own is usually the one already sitting in your driveway!

This article from CarBuzz hits the nail on the head. You can fall back in love with your current ride and save thousands in the process. ✨

Seriously. Don't buy a new car right now.

One of the biggest secrets to reaching 300,000 miles is simply addressing problems immediately. In this Autoblog article, experts explain how ignoring a small issue leads to "cascading failures", where one cheap part failing ends up ruining multiple expensive ones.

These simple maintenance habits can keep your vehicle running far longer than you think.

Some of the best love stories don’t need a big announcement… they just need two people wildly in love. ❤️

Our very own Tara and Stephen snuck away and GOT MARRIED!! 💍✨

We are absolutely over the moon happy for these two and couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter of their lives together. Watching the people you care about find their forever is such a beautiful thing.

Please help us congratulate the newlyweds and shower them with all the love!! 🥂

We can’t wait to celebrate with them soon and make even more memories together. ❤️

Congratulations Mr. & Mrs.!!

🛑 STOP! Before you check your coolant level, remember the #1 Rule of Radiators: NEVER open the cap while the engine is hot. Opening that cap on a hot engine is like opening a shaken-up soda bottle, but with 220-degree liquid.

The best way to go about it is to check the "overflow" plastic reservoir (the see-through tank) while the engine is cool. If it’s below the "Full" line, give us a call. We’ll top you off and check for the "why" behind the low level!

We often get asked: " Can I just buy one of those recharge cans from the parts store?" 🤔

The truth is, your A/C is a sealed system. If it needs more refrigerant, it means there is a leak somewhere. Adding a "quick fix" can often introduce air or moisture into the system, which can eventually ruin your parts. Our mechanics can recover the old refrigerant, vacuum-test the system for leaks, and refill it to the exact amount required by the manufacturer. Do it right the first time and stay cool all summer long! 🧊

"I originally took my car in for an oil change to which they did a thorough inspection as well. They found a few things that needed to be done so I did a couple of those a month later. They were so quick & efficient. They go above & beyond with their costumer service as well. I feel so fortunate to have found a reputable shop that literally knows your name when you arrive. Thanks Impact! "
