All the cool gadgets, gismos and games have transformed how many travelers pass time in the car. However, with the advent of smart phones, people increasingly want to access the Internet on a variety of devices. If the device works from cell service, you likely have Internet if you have cell coverage.
However, many iPod Touches, iPads, and tablets can also be used to access the Internet, even in the car while traveling. You can create your own “hot spot” in your vehicle with what is called a Mobile HotSpot or WiFi Hotspot . Most major carriers offer these, such as Sprint and Verizon. All you have to do is enter your zip code on this Sprint page to find out what’s available in your area. This is ideal for accessing the Internet while on the road, in more remote areas, camping, fishing, etc.
Have you used one of these?

Spring Tire Check

In addition to checking your vehicle tires over for wear and tear, tread, and proper tire pressure, make sure you give attention to all the tires you own this Spring. If you don’t have a tire pressure gauge, it’s an inexpensive investment. If you don’t have a air compressor, most gas stations still offer free air.
- Check the tires on your trailer before you start doing yard work and landscaping projects.
- Check the tires on your lawn tractor or mower before you fire it up. Don’t forget to change the oil on the mower after sitting all winter!
- Check the tires on your RV when you pull it out to wash it and get it ready for the camping season.
- Check the tires on your boat trailer before you head to the lake with all the toys in tow.
- Check the tires on the bikes before the kids head out. You don’t want them pedaling extra hard because of the low pressure.
While we don’t sell tractor, mower, and bike tires, we are here for all your car and truck tire needs. If you’re worried about one of your tires, stop in and have us take a look!
