Check Your Car For Memphis

["jtrealtywebspannet" <jtrealty@xxxx>]

Just a reminder that many owners will soon be taking a long drive to 
Memphis. It is a very good idea to check on some things on the car 
before a long drive. Start with examining the tires for tread, cuts, 
bumps and air pressure. Don't forget the spare. Now check the fluids 
including the coolant, engine oil, clutch and brake levels, final 
drive if automatic, and washer fluid. Wiper blades, signal and brake 
lights, and headlights. Pack some extra fuses and whatever spare parts 
you have and think you might need. Take enough tools to do minor 
repairs. Even if you may not need help if you are traveling with 
others then you may have what someone else may need. Take a large 
plastic bag for the tire (if you have to change it) and a blanket to 
lay on. I am sure you can make up your own list of must have items. 
For many it will be the longest trip the car will make this year and 
some owners don't take as good care of them as many who are on this 
list. It will be very hard to get any parts as many of the venders 
will be closed during the show so if anyone needs any emergency parts 
there may be trouble in getting them so plan ahead. It is probably a 
good idea to caravan with others so if anything does happen there is a 
chance of getting help and maybe parts. The Family Band radios are a 
real good idea so you can keep in touch while driving with others in 
the caravan. (Take extra batteries).
