Auto Estrogen

No wonder the auto industry is suffering. In an economy where people are losing their jobs and houses, not many folks are pulling out the dough to buy a new car. For those who are spending money, they’re more likely buying pre-owned versus new, at least until the economy becomes a bit more stable. If you happen to be one of the many that’s reining in on the spending, here are 10 ideas to get your current car looking and feeling like new.

1. Get your car detailed. There’s nothing like a good washing, inside and out, to get a car looking cleaner, smelling fresher and feeling more enjoyable to ride in.

2. Have your car waxed. Aaah, the shine.

3. Purchase new seat covers. Yeah, just think, with new seat covers you can change the color and the feel of your car and you can do it for little of nothing.

4. Buy an air freshener. A clean smelling car is always nice and if you like the new car smell that’s available too.

5. Replace the floor mats.

6. Install a new disc player.

7. Get a paint job. Nothing like a new color to give a car a new look. Try coordinating the colors with the interior.

8. Get a tune-up. You’d be amazed at how different your car feels and how different you feel in your car when it’s running properly.

9. Get some new tires. Same here. New tires give a car a totally different feel. You’ll thoroughly enjoy your smoother ride.

10. Get a new friend. Yeah, change out your passengers and enjoy some new conversation!

Happy riding.
