Save Money with a Pre-Trip Inspection
Having a breakdown while away from home is extremely expensive. For starters, you will have to pay for a tow truck to take your vehicle to the nearest mechanic's shop, which can cost several hundred dollars. Depending on where you are, you will most likely need a hotel to wait for your vehicle repairs. Or you will have to get a rental car.
