In this episode, I talk with my cousin Andy and my dad about car maintenance. Andy has been a car mechanic for the past 17 years and currently handles anything from rebuilding engines and transmissions to A/C work and regular service maintenance. My dad has been the self-proclaimed owner of over 60 different old “junker” cars over the course of 50 years and learned the hard way through experience and trial and error how to handle car maintenance.

 

We discuss:

-what can go bad on your car

-preventative maintenance you can do to extend the life of your car

-the really expensive things to fix on your car

-fixing minor things yourself
