Winter Weather Car Tips | Cash for Cars Atlanta


Once Fall passes us by and Winter quickly sets in, we often run into all types of unexpected car trouble. Extreme cold, icy roads and snow can cause all sorts of issues for your car and your driving.  Having a great offense is the best plan. Be prepared and have the right things in your vehicle with you at all times. This includes matches, blankets, water, sand, rock salt, a shovel, ice scraper and WD-40.  Here are a few tips that can help you out in some of the sticky situations that winter weather can cause:
  • If you get stuck in snow or ice you want to have sand and/or rock salt on hand. You can use this to melt the ice underneath your tires or get traction if they are stuck on snow.
  • In the case of a frozen lock, heat your key up in hot water and dry it thoroughly. Also use a blow dryer, if you have a long enough extension cord, to heat the lock and melt the ice. You can help prevent your locks from freezing by oiling them before bed.
  • Drive appropriately for the conditions and leave your house early for work. This is the most important and most common sense tip.  If you are running late, you will be tempted to speed, even in icy conditions or if there is poor visibility.  Don’t let other drivers or time constraints pressure you into going faster than conditions permit.

Winter driving doesn't have to be so scary, frustrating or dangerous if you properly prepare. If you feel your car is just not up for handling another winter and you are buying a new car. Call us and we will buy your old car. We pay fast cash for cars in Atlanta. We offer same day pick up and free quotes.

3 Car Safety Tips | Cash for Cars Atlanta

Car safety should be a top concern to anyone who is driver or passenger in a vehicle. Car accident death and serious injury are a daily occurrence in the U.S.  It often that precious cargo is transported in our vehicles… our families.  Here are 3 car safety tips that may help to keep you safer on the road.

1. Your Car Needs To Be Visible At Night: Make sure you headlights are always turned on at dusk. You also  need to be sure that your headlights don’t have any UV damage.  If your headlights are cloudy, it can significantly decrease their brightness.

2. Don’t Let Your Gas Tank Get Low:  You should never wait for your gas warning light to come on before you fill up your tank. You never know when you may end up in a traffic jam or stuck on the road because of an accident ahead. You do not want to risk running out of gas in such a scenario. It is also damaging to your car when you wait until you are almost empty because your car will use the dirty gasoline that settles at the bottom of your tank. This dirt can get into your fuel line and engine.

3. Only Drive When You Are Alert: Tired drivers are bad drivers. When you are tired your attentiveness, reaction time and focus are all significantly diminished. If you really need to be somewhere important, but you are too tired to drive, you should call a cab or have a friend drive you.

Keep yourself, friends and family safe.  Always make safety your top priority whenever you get behind the wheel.  You also want to make sure that any new car you plan on buying has a high safety rating. After you purchase your new vehicle, we will buy your old car.  We pay cash for cars and will offer friendly same day pick up.

3 Important Car Leasing Facts | Cash for Cars Atlanta

Many people think of leasing as financially unattractive in comparison to buying a new car. Although leasing is not ideal of everyone in every circumstance, much of what is believed about car leases is false.  Here are 3 important facts you should know about leasing a vehicle that just may change your mind about leasing your next car:

1. You Can Get As Good Of A Deal Leasing A Car As You Can Buying A Car. This is important to know. Many people that you have to work with the stick price on a car when you want to lease it, but that is false. You can negotiate the price of the vehicle that the lease is based on, your interest rate and your monthly payments.

2. You Can Get Tax Savings On Leases.  When you lease a vehicle, normally you will only pay taxes on the monthly payments not on the total cost of the vehicle itself. 

3. You Don’t Always Have Fees At The End Of A Lease. Most people automatically assume you will be hit with big fees at the end of your lease. If you take care of the car and stay within the allotted mileage you probably won’t have any fees when you turn your car in. If you know that the allotted mileage is not sufficient for your driving needs, be sure to negotiate a higher allotment BEFORE you lease the car. 

Leasing a vehicle definitely has its advantages and is especially advantageous for those who don’t have long commutes or like to trade in cars frequently for the latest model.  If you do decide to lease a new car and need to sell your old one, we can help. We offer cash for cars in any condition with any mileage.  Call us today for a free quote and same day pick up. We buy cars Atlanta!
