Tim’s Truck Capital & Auto Sales Wants You To Breathe Fresh Air While Driving

Did you know you could be breathing dirty air while driving in your vehicle? That’s because you’re exposed to the outside air even when you’re inside your car. The air in your vehicle is only as clean as the cabin air filter, so it’s important to make sure your cabin air filter is replaced regularly. Tim’s Truck Capital recommends you bring your vehicle to our Service department and let us replace your cabin air filter on a regular basis so you’re always breathing the cleanest air possible. How Does the Cabin Air Filter Work? Outside air is brought into the cabin through the heating, air conditioning and ventilation systems. The cabin air filter removes fumes, pollen, dust, outside irritants and pollutants and other airborne impurities. Over time the cabin air filter gets dirty or clogged and needs replacing in order the keep the cabin air clean. How Often Should The Cabin Air Filter Be Replaced? Our #TimsTruckCapital service technicians recommend changing your vehicle’s cabin air filter every 12-24 months, depending on how much time you spend driving in city and highway traffic versus a more rural area. How Do You Know It’s Time to Replace the Air Filter? You’ll know your air filter needs replacing when you notice a smell a bad odor in your vehicle when you turn on the air or if there is suddenly more noise coming from the fan of your vehicle. Better yet, schedule regular maintenance visits with our service technicians so you can change the filter before it stops working properly. Tim’s Truck Capital’s Service Professionals Can Keep Your Air Fresh We want to keep you and your family healthy! We’re happy to replace your vehicle’s cabin air filter on a regular basis. Since the air filter is often in a hard-to-reach location, it may be difficult to remove. That’s why our factory-trained Service technicians at Tim’s Truck Capital are here to assist you.

GMC’s Sierra & Chevy’s Silverado Side-by-Side Car and Driver has dubbed the GMC Sierra and Silverado pickups “identical twins” because they share the same engines, transmissions, chassis and most of the same sheet metal. Of course, there are noticeable differences in front-end styling: the Sierra has simple, classy-looking small projector-beam units that are quite different from the Silverado’s stacked headlights. The Sierra’s grille, the front bumpers, the fenders and the aluminum hood have that GMC “look”. Performance The Sierra’s 355-hp, 5.3-liter V-8 engine produces the same mellow purr as the V-8 Chevy. The Silverado LTZ crew cab equipped with the 5.3-liter can accelerate from and 0-to-60 in just 6.7 seconds as can the Sierra. When on the highway, the 5.3 switches to V-4 mode to help save fuel. In two-wheel-drive mode, the Sierra V-8 gets an EPA-estimated 16 city mpg and 23 highway. Four-wheel-drive versions with the V-8 get 16/22 mpg. The V-6 option gets better gas mileage. Both pickups have a smooth ride and great handling. The Sierra’s steering is tight and accurate and you won’t need to make constant corrections. The brake pedal is firm and almost sports-car-like, and the braking distances recorded by the Sierra and the Chevrolet were leading class.

Top Tips For Choosing a Great Used Truck

At Tim’s Truck Capital and Auto Sales in Epsom, NH, we specialize in used truck sales. We have a large and varied inventory of used trucks, as well as SUV crossovers and sedans. We’d like to share some of our favorite reasons for buying a used truck and our top tips for getting the perfect truck for you. More choice Did you know there are over three times as many pre-owned trucks on the market today? This means there’s a lot to choose from. Talk with our sales team at Tim’s Truck Capital and let us know what you’re looking for so we can find it for you. Avoid rapid depreciation Buying a used truck saves you the depreciation loss. Did you know that if you financed a new truck with a low down payment, you could end up owing more than the truck is worth after a few years? This is because new models can lose half or more of their value in the first two to three years. What to look for Pickup trucks are built to last, so if you can find one that’s just a few years old, it will prove to be a great investment. It will have already taken big hit on depreciation while still having lots of life left in it. A well-maintained pickup truck can perform well for 200,000 miles or more. This is especially true of diesel engine trucks. Rust isn't the problem it was in the past and the advent of solid-state electronics has reduced the need for frequent tune-ups. Towing capacity If you need a used pickup truck to tow a trailer, make sure you know the truck's towing capacity (GVWR and tongue weight). It’s important to consider engine capacity, cab and bed size, wheelbase length, rear axle ratio, tongue weight and whether or not the truck has a factory-towing package. Look for signs of towing wear on trucks you’re considering. If a truck has been pulling a lot of weight, it will show. Reliability While it’s a good idea to look for a pickup truck with the highest reliability scores, it’s also important to keep in mind that every used truck is unique. Make sure to have a pre-purchase inspection even on a truck with a high reliability rating. Given that trucks are workhorses, it is also important to look for signs of extreme wear and past uses, such as off-road driving or large-trailer towing. We at Tim’s Truck Capital are careful to select the best used trucks available. Come See Our Extensive Inventory of Used Trucks, Cars & SUVs At #Tim’sTruckCapital and Auto Sales, our friendly and knowledgeable sales team will help you find the vehicle that meets your needs and has been checked out by our professional service department.

The Versatile 2015 Yukon Full-Size SUV

The #2015GMCYukon SUV combines rugged truck construction and V8 towing capacity with luxury features you’d expect to find in a top of the line luxury SUV. After being fully redesigned for 2015, the Yukon ended up with a new look inside and out.

OnStar, which includes automatic on-demand roadside assistance, crash notification, remote door unlocking, stolen vehicle assistance and navigation is also a standard feature on the 2015 Yukon. Depending on the trim level, you can get a vibrating safety alert seat and rear cross-traffic alert. Let our sales team at Tim’s Truck Capital know what you’re looking for so we can find it for you. Other Used Trucks Available at Tim’s Truck Capital Tim’s Truck Capital & Auto Sales in Epsom, NH has some other options for you to consider. For example, if you don’t need the towing capability, you might consider the 2015 GMC Acadia which comfortably seats eight with more third-row space and cargo capacity.

Their collection contains over 250 transit vehicles, most of them trolleys, from all over the United States, Canada and many other countries. The White Mountain Central Railroad Lincoln NH This railroad is located within the grounds of Clark's Trading Post which serves as both a museum and tourist attraction. Visitors can go for a 2.5-mile train ride. It was originally opened as Ed Clark's "Eskimo Sled Dog Ranch" in 1928 and was focused on raising and exhibiting Eskimo Sled Dogs.

Visitors can ride the steam train, enjoy the high speed water slide and watch a trained bear show and Chinese circus acts. There’s also a climbing tower and blaster boats. Fun for the whole family. The "470" Railroad Club Portland, ME Established in 1954 to commemorate the last run of steam locomotive No. 470, in passenger service on the Maine Central Railroad, the 470 Club now owns and maintains a collection of historic locomotives and cars.

The Affordable 2015 Acura MDX Luxury Crossover

The Affordable 2015 Acura MDX Luxury Crossover

Are you in the market for an economical high-quality vehicle for the family that’s loaded with luxury features? We invite you to Tim’s Truck Capital and Auto Sales in historic Epsom, NH to see if the 2015 Acura MDX may be the perfect vehicle for you! We have a great selection of used trucks, SUVs and cars so we’re sure to have just the right vehicle for your needs. 2015 Acura Features You’ll love the lively acceleration of the #2015AcuraMDX and the way it handles on curves with its tight and sporty steering. Your passengers will appreciate its comfort, accessibility and luxury features, too. With only the touch of a button, passengers can access the third row. The Acura MDX comes standard with many luxury features you’d normally have to pay more for on other models. The base model even comes standard with heated leather seats that will warm you up during our chilly New England winters. How It Stacks Up Against The Competition Other comparable three-row luxury crossovers like Infiniti's QX60 and Lincoln's MKT are viable alternatives, though neither handles quite as well as the Acura MDX. The BMW X5 performs better but comes with a much heftier price tag. If you need more room for cargo than the MDX, you might consider the larger Buick Enclave. While it’s worth checking out similar vehicles such as the Infiniti QX60, Lincoln MKT, BMW X5 and the Buick Enclave, we think you’ll find the 2015 Acura MDX three-row crossover a winning mix of luxury and value.

The Most Common Maintenance Mistakes & How To Avoid Them

To keep your vehicle in optimal shape, our service professionals at Tim’s Truck Capital and Auto Sales want to make you aware of some of the most important maintenance tasks that are generally often overlooked. Regular maintenance will not only keep your vehicle running smoothly, it will lengthen the life of your vehicle and save you lots of money in the short and long term. At Tim’s Truck Capital in Epsom, NH, we know it’s not always easy to take the time to schedule regular vehicle maintenance, so we try to make it as easy as possible for you. 1) Don’t Ignore the Check Engine Light! Often the “Check Engine Light” comes on when the car appears to be operating normally, so it’s easy to think everything is working fine and you don’t need to schedule a service appointment. After a while, you don’t even notice the light is on. Ignoring the light can lead to an eventual breakdown, leaving you stranded by the side of the road. It’s really important to have your vehicle checked by a mechanic as soon as the “Check Engine” light come on. Remember, it can also save you money since the longer you wait, the higher the costs of repairs. 2) Check Your Tire Pressure It’s also very common to forget to check the air pressure in your tires. You can’t tell just by looking! Tires can be underinflated even when they look just fine. Did you know that even running over a pothole or large speed bump can make your tires lose pressure? Low tire pressure leads to poor fuel economy. The weather also has a big effect on your tire pressure. Did you know that tires lose 1 to 2 lbs. of air pressure for every 10° the temperature drops outside? That’s why it’s especially important to check your tires in our cold NH winters. Keeping your tires properly inflated gives you better gas mileage and lengthens the life of your tires. 3) Don’t Skip Oil Changes Regular oil changes ensure a long engine life and will keep your engine healthy. Since motor oil and car engine technology have advanced a lot in recent years, check your owner’s manual to find out the recommended frequency of changes. For newer cars, the oil change interval is around 7,00-8,000 miles. If the oil gets too old, it can cause your engine to seize up and die because dirty and old oil can deposit sludge in your engine rather than lubricating and cooling the engine. Ignoring oil changes can end up being a very costly mistake.
