Our #Tim’sTruckCapital&AutoSales dealership in Epsom would like to share some tips that will save you money at the gas pump. We also invite you to visit our dealership to see our extensive inventory of used cars, trucks, crossovers and SUVs. We specialize in used trucks for sale and have one of the largest inventories in New England. Our website is updated daily, so you know you’re seeing the latest vehicles. Let us know what you’re looking for so we can help you find it. Here are some tips for a long vehicle life: Drive at a steady speed Avoiding sudden stops and starts and remember: driving the speed limit uses less gas. Make sure you’re aware of your surroundings and know the speed limit. Stay in tune Keep your vehicle as well tuned as possible. A poorly tuned engine can increase fuel consumption by up to 50 percent! Regular tune-ups and having clean air filters will prevent car trouble later. It will also help you burn less gas and pollute less. Keep your tires properly inflated Did you know that nearly 36% of cars are driven with tires underinflated? Check your tire pressure monthly with a tire gauge. Underinflated tires reduce fuel efficiency by up to 2 percent for each pound that the tires are not properly inflated. Use your air conditioner less Your vehicle’s air conditioner uses engine-generated power, so only use it when necessary for short periods. Parking in the shade and using a reflective windshield shade helps keep your car cool on hot days. Unload your trunk Avoid carrying extra weight in your car. Extra weight lowers your fuel economy, so unless you’re planning on playing that day, leave those golf clubs at home.

Looking for a great deal on a fullsize pickup? Edmunds reviewers praised the #2010DodgeRam1500 as one of the best in its class. The Ram was fully redesigned in 2009 and got a few more upgrades for 2010. It features a smooth, car-like ride, thanks to its heavy-duty coil-spring rear suspension. As an added bonus, the new suspension saves weight, allowing for a stabilizer bar that improves off-road performance. After a test drive in the Ram, you might find that other pickups seem rough and primitive by comparison. Towing The tow rating for a properly equipped Ram1500 with a 5.7-liter V8 engine, is 10,2050 pounds. The Ram also features an integrated trailer brake controller, trailer-tow mirrors and a tire-pressure monitor that also keeps tabs on the spare. The Ram 1500 features an attractive design, excellent ergonomics and high quality materials. The largest of the three engines, the 5.7-liter V8, is the best because it supplies power while getting the same EPA fuel economy ratings as the less powerful V6 engine. When compared with the Chevrolet Silverado, Ford F-150 and Toyota Tundra, all excellent trucks, the Ram won out because of its well-rounded strengths. “Simply put, the Ram 1500 is a truck that gets it right in performance, comfort, design and build quality,” according to Edmunds. It’s hard to beat a recommendation like that!
