WE HAVE ALL SEEN IT AND FE.

WHEREVER THERE'S A DELAY PATIENCE WEARS THINNER.

PEOPLE BECOME MORE PRONE TO TAILGATING, PASSING AGGRESY OR MAKING RASH DECISIONS.

THAT FRUSTRATION IS UNDERSTANDABLE.

ROADWORK FEELS ENDLESS WHEU ARE SITTING IN TRAFFIC BUT IT'S ALSO A REMINDER OFW MUCH OUR DAILY ROUTINES DED ON SAFE ROADS.

THOSE CREWS ARE OUT THEY'RE MAKING SURE THE SAME HIGHWE COMPLAIN ABOUT WILL HOLD UP UNDER THE STRAIN OF WINTER TRAVEL AROUND THE CORNER.

AND THAT IS THE NEXT CHALL.

WE ARE JUST WEEKS AWAY FROY MORNINGS, SNOWPACK COMMUTEN THE FIRST REAL TEST OF WINR DRIVING.

WHEN THE ASPHALT IS COVEREN FROST AND SNOW, RASH DECISS CAN HAVE REAL CONSEQUENCES.

>> AND YOU ARE STILL STICK- STICKING IN SUPERIOR.

>>'S WE ARE MOVING CLOSE.

WE ARE PART OF BOTH MINNESA AND WISCONSIN.

AND WE LOVE BEING PART OF T CULTURE.

>> COULD YOU SPEAK TO THE INVOLVEMENT IN THE COMMUNID HOW IMPORTANT IT IS FOR YOR BUSINESS.

>> IT'S BEEN 92 YEARS WE CELEBRATED IN SEPTEMBER AND BEING PART OF THIS COMMUNIS BEEN AMAZING AND WE FEEL SH SUPPORT AND WE HOPE WE HAVE BROUGHT THAT BACK TO THE COMMUNITY.

>> WHAT ARE SOME OF THE WAU ARE ABLE TO GIVE BACK TO TE PEOPLE?

>> A LONG TIME AGO, MY GRANDFATHER, WE ALWAYS HADA SALE DURING THE HOLIDAY TI, SUPPORTING THE SALVATION AY AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

WE HAVE EXPANDED THAT TO IE SECOND HARVEST AND THE SALN ARMY.

SMALL BUSINESS IS THE HEARD CULTURE OF A COMMUNITY.

WE ARE A FRANCHISE WITH TO.

WE CAN STILL RUN THE BUSINESS HOW WE WANT TO FOR TOWN.

PART OF OUR MISSION STATEMS WHAT WE DO FOR OUR CUSTOMES WE VIEW OUR JOB TO EDUCATE PEOPLE BECAUSE CAR BUYING D BE SIMPLE BUT IT'S HIGHLY REGULATED.

IT'S COMPLICATED, ESPECIALN THE MIDST OF INFLATION, TA, VEHICLE SUPPLY SHORTAGES.

THINGS GET COMPLICATED ANDS OUR JOB TO GUIDE CUSTOMERS THROUGH THE PROCESS AND HEP THEM GET THE VEHICLES THEY.

WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THEY E SET UP IN THE FUTURE TO BEN THE RIGHT SPOT.

SO WE TAKE PRIDE IN SENDING PEOPLE THE RIGHT WAY, SO TE TO FIVE YEARS OR LONGER, TY ARE IN A GOOD SPOT TO PURCA VEHICLE AGAIN.

>> AFTER 92 YEARS I THINK U MENTIONED.

THAT'S A LONG TIME AND A LF DIFFERENT CHANGES IN THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY, ESPECY WITH MORE ELECTRIC VEHICLE.

HOW DO YOU KEEP YOUR STAFF INVOLVED IN THE NEWEST AND LATEST TECHNOLOGY?

>> REALLY EDUCATION.

THERE'S A LOT OF INFORMATIT THERE.

TOYOTA DOES A GOOD JOB PROG US WITH WHAT THEIR GAME PL.

I BELIEVE TOYOTA TAKES A COMMONSENSE APPROACH TO THE EVOLUTIONS IN THE INDUSTRYD SO WE JUST KEEP LEARNING AT GOES ALONG AND THERE'S BEEA LOT OF CHANGES AND THINGS A AND FLOW A LOT BUT WE ARE TE HELPING PEOPLE UNDERSTAND T IS COMING DOWN THE ROAD.

EVERYBODY USES VEHICLES.

WE ALWAYS SAID WE WOULD NER BUILD A HOME TOGETHER.

WE HAVE REMODELING HOME, TO HOMES NOW, BUT WE ARE BUILA DEALERSHIP TOGETHER.

>> WHY BUILD A HOME WHEN YN BUILD A DEALERSHIP?

>> YES.

>> WE ARE EXCITED TO SEE TW BUILDING.

THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US TONIGHT.

READY OR NOT, THE SEASONS E CHANGING.

OUR TEAM MET UP WITH A LOCL MECHANIC TO BRING YOU TIPSD TRICKS TO MAKE SURE YOUR VE IS READY FOR THOSE ROUGH WR MONTHS AHEAD.

>> IT'S A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING.

I DON'T HAVE A TITLE TO BE HONEST.

MY NAME IS KYLE.

I AM ONE OF THE HEAD TECHNICIANS.

I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON VEHE SINCE I WAS 15.

SOME OF THE MOST COMMON THS HE WENT TO CHECK WOULD BE E WHERE DEPTH, THE CONDITIONF YOUR COOLANT, WIPER BLADES, THINGS LIKE THAT.

THOSE ARE THE TYPICAL ONES.

WHEN IT COMES TO TIRE GAUGE DEPTH, YOU EITHER HAVE TO K AT IT AND KNOW WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT, HAVE SOME GROON THE TIRES.

MANY OF US ARE WILLING ANDE CAN GO FOR A TEST DRIVE WIU OR LOOK THINGS OVER REALLYK OR MAKE AN APPOINTMENT OR O THINGS THAT.

YOU CAN DO WINTER TIRES.

GENERALLY MOST VEHICLES HAN ALL SEASON TIRE.

BECAUSE THEY ARE DESIGNED R WINTER, THEY ARE GOING TO O BETTER.

BUT AS FAR AS HAVING A SECD SET OF TIRES OR BUYING WINR TIRES INDIVIDUALLY, EVERYTG LIKE THAT, IT IS NOT TRULY NESTED TO THAT TRULY NECES.

MOST ALL SEASON TIRES -- LI SAID, WINTER TIRES ARE MADR WINTER.

THEY WILL DO BETTER THAN AL SEASON TIRE SO YOU WILL SEA DIFFERENCE.

IT WILL NOT BE A DRAMATIC DIFFERENCE.

WHEN IT COMES TO DIFFERENTE PRESSURES FOR SUMMER OR WI, THERE'S NO REAL DIFFERENCE, EXCEPT THROUGHOUT THE CHANG MONTHS OF SEPTEMBER AND OC, YOU CAN SEE TIRE PRESSURE P BECAUSE THE AIR IS GETTING COOLER, SO YOU MIGHT HAVE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT -- NOT A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BUT A TE PRESSURE MONITOR LIGHT COMN IN THE MORNING AND BY THE AFTERNOON IS GONE.

THERE'S NO REAL DIFFERENCEF RUNNING DIFFERENT TIRE PRES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.

MOST OF THE TIME, FOR A CA, IT'S AROUND 35.

IF YOU OPEN YOUR DOOR THE'S GENERALLY A STICKER WITHINE JAMB OF THE DOOR THAT TELL.

CERTAIN TRUCKS RUN A DIFFET TIRE PRESSURE, A HEAVIER GE TIRE FOR MORE WEIGHT.

IT WILL BE ON THE SIDEWALLF THE TIRE.

REALLY, THERE'S NO DIFFERES TO THE CHANGING TIRE PRESS.

JUST WATCHING IT AS AIR CO.

YOU MIGHT HAVE TO PUT AIR .

IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING THATS OLDER IN AGE, GENERALLY ITS JUST PAYING ATTENTION.

IF YOU SEE OIL ON THE GROU, MAKE SURE YOU TOP IT OFF.

SEE IF YOU ARE FULL ON OILR NOT.

IF YOU HAVE A TIRE THAT CONTINUOUSLY GOES LOW, CHER A SLOW LEAK.

THERE IS NOTHING THAT IS OS AS FAR AS AN OLDER CAR NOTG ABLE TO MAKE IT THROUGH WI.

THERE'S NOTHING THAT WILL T SAY YOU ARE NOT GOING TO ME IT.

SOMETHING LIKE A BATTERY CD COME INTO PLAY ON AN OLDER VEHICLE.

WE HAVE TOOLS THAT I CAN HP AND TELL YOU, YOU KNOW, ITS SUPPOSED TO HAVE 750 CC OF CRANKING AMPS.

IT SAYS, ON A COLD DAY, ITT NOT HAVE ENOUGH IN IT.

THERE'S THINGS LIKE THAT TT YOU COULD HAVE CHECKED AS S THAT GOES, BUT NOTHING IS A YES/NO TYPE OF SWITCH OF SG YOUR CAR WILL NOT MAKE IT R GIVE YOU A PROBLEM.

IT'S JUST PAYING ATTENTIONO THINGS AND TURNING THE RADF AND LISTENING TO IT HERE AD THERE.

WHEN IT COMES TO HAVING TOM UP YOUR CAR OR NOT, EVERYOS AN OPINION.

SOME SAY JUST DRIVE AND OTS SAY GIVE IT 10 MINUTES.

THE BIGGEST THING WITH LETG YOUR CAR WARM UP IS YOU CAN PROBABLY LET IT BE ONE TO O MINUTES OR THREE MINUTES.

MAKE SURE FLUIDS ARE COLDE.

IT WILL TAKE AN EXTRA MINU.

IT'S NOT LONG BUT THERE'S A DIFFERENCE.

GIVE IT TWO OR THREE MINUT.

MAKE SURE THAT GETS TO THEP SIDE OF THE ENGINE AND PULS FLUID TO DIFFERENT AREAS AD THINGS ARE GETTING LUBRICAD AND YOU ARE NOT RUNNING DR.

JUST GIVE IT AN EXTRA MINUE WITH LOWER TEMPERATURES.

THERE'S NOTHING -- UNLESS U WANT TO LET IT RUN 10 MINUR WHATEVER AND MAKE SURE THE WINDOWS ARE DEFROSTED SO YU DON'T HAVE TO SCRAPE THEM.

IT IS MORE OF YOUR COMFORTO YOU WANT TO LET IT RUN LONR JUST HOP IN AND GO?

BUT AS FAR AS THE CAR'S CONDITION, GIVE IT ONE OR O MINUTES PUT YOUR FOOT ON TE BRAKE, PUT IT THROUGH REVE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE.

LET IT FILL CIRCUITS WITH D AND GET THAT LUBRICATION TH THE SYSTEM.

AS FAR AS WINTER COMING IN POSSIBLY BEING LEFT ON THEE OF THE ROAD WITH UNFORESEEN CIRCUMSTANCES, THE BIGGEST THING I CAN SAY OUTSIDE OFG MECHANICALLY PREPARED FOR T WOULD BE TO HAVE A BAG IN E TRUNK OR THE BACK SEAT THAS BOOTS, GLOVES AND A HAT, SOMETHING THAT IF THE CAR O BE SHUT OFF AND YOU HAVE TT FOR A TOW TRUCK AND IT'S C, YOU HAVE SOME EXTRA CLOTHEO PUT ON AND STAY WARM IF YOE STUCK IN WHATEVER IT MIGHT.

SO HAVE A BAG LIKE THAT THT STAYS IN YOUR CAR FOR WINT.

SOME PEOPLE KEEP A JUMPER N THERE SO IF STARTING THE BY IS IN QUESTION THEY CAN JU.

JUST DON'T LEAVE IT THERE L THE TIME BECAUSE IT WILL G. SO THE ONLY THING I WOULD S HAVE A BAG OF CLOTHES OR SOMETHING THAT IF YOU HAVEO WALKING IN A PAIR OF GLOVER BOOTS OR HAT YOU HAVE TO TW ON AND KEEP YOURSELF WARM.

BRETT: WINTER WILL BE HERE BEFORE YOU KNOW IT.
