Buying a New or Used Vehicle & Making It Last

I have owned many vehicles in my life and have performed my own automotive work on most of them, so I am the "go-to" guy for auto advice whenever my family or friends need it. I have a knack for finding great deals on new and used automobiles and am eager to share my auto-buying tips on my new blog. However, what I truly have a passion for is vehicle maintenance and diagnosing and repairing my cars. Auto technology has advanced a lot in just recent years, and every time I perform repairs on my latest vehicle there is always a learning curve to understanding the new technology. I look forward to helping others by posting all of my auto buying, maintenance, and repair tips on my new blog!
