Do You Daydream about a New Car?

A recent study shows that people spend almost half their waking hours daydreaming. After hearing this statistic, we got to thinking, how much of that time is spent daydreaming about new cars?

As many of us drive around town in our used cars, we can't help but think about what life would be like in a new set of wheels. While daydreaming is nice, we're here to turn your dream into a reality.

If you're in the market for a new car, be sure to stop by our Flowood dealership and take a Kia for a test drive!

Never Leave Home Without these Three Things

It seems to never fail. As soon as you jump in your car and back out of your driveway, it hits you. You left something in the house. While we won't always remember all the things we need before running out the door, here are three things you should never leave home without.
  • A Flat Tire Survival Kit: Getting a flat tire at some point in your life is almost inevitable. Make sure your car is ready with a spare tire, in good condition, a tire jack and tire iron.
  • Tire Inflater and Sealer: A product like Fix-a-Flat can plug a leak and help you avoid using your jack and iron. It can also give you enough air to get you to the auto shop.
  • Jumper Cables: Dead batteries happen to even the most seasoned drivers. Alternatively, you can pack an emergency battery booster so you don't have to rely on a Good Samaritan coming along.
Having these things will certainly help in most breakdown situations. But if your car is still in need of repairs, schedule a service appointment with us to help get you back on the road!
