Never Neglect Auto Maintenance

I was very excited when I purchased my first automobile! I was eager to get it on the road and I even took my friends on a long road trip soon after purchasing it. While it was used, it was in great shape. I put a lot of miles on it driving around and, to my surprise, one day it just stalled on the road. I had no idea what happened and had to have my vehicle towed to a local auto body shop. I soon learned that neglecting to have my oil changed the entire time I had my vehicle led to my engine failing. Unfortunately, I had to replace the entire engine, which was pricey. I am now devoted to taking meticulous care of my automobiles and want to share what I have learned about auto maintenance and repairs on my new blog!
