Since we started following Dave Ramsey a year and a half ago, I can’t wait to pay off our two cars and I intend to drive them until I can’t drive them anymore! Jiffy Lube has that same goal and has started a new fan page called “Keeping My Ride Alive” on Facebook to help inspire people to maintain their cars so that they can last longer. I was inspired by the story of this guy who has had his Jeep Cherokee for over 17 years and it has over 400,000 miles on it!! On the Facebook page, there is a lady who has a Nissan Maxima that has 336,371 miles on it!
According to a recent survey conducted by Jiffy Lube International, more than half of U.S. drivers hope to have more than 150,000 miles on their vehicle before replacing it with a new one, and more than a quarter are hoping to clock 250,000 miles or more. While 99% of drivers agree getting their oil changed regularly will help prolong its life, most are looking for additional services during their oil change visits to help keep their ride alive. Many Americans believe in the importance of having vehicle parts and fluids checked as well as having the option to have multiple services performed in a timely manner on a single visit is important. At Jiffy Lube, you get more than just an oil change! Their Signature Service Oil Change includes changing, inspecting, checking/filling, and cleaning key vehicle parts and fluids and offers drivers a quick and convenient way to maintain their vehicles.
Jiffy Lube is so committed to getting the word out about how they can help you keep your ride alive that they sent me two $35 gift cards to give away to my readers!
