Did your Check Engine light just come on? it never happens at a convenient time, but what if it happened right after you took it in for service? At Tim’s Truck Capital and Auto Sales, we might have an idea as to why your light came on out of nowhere and it’s something you might not ever think of.
Can You Say, “Rodents?”
Did you know that squirrels and mice can get inside your engine? They can fit into places you’d never imagine. They like to sharpen their teeth on wires and hoses, which can lead to electrical issues, a stalled vehicle or leaking fluids. They can also be hunting for food. The smell of food can attract mice and squirrels and once they’re under your hood, they can make their way inside. At Tim’s Truck Capital, where you can find used cars for sale in NH, we suggest the following to prevent unwanted guests:
- If you park near wooded areas watch for signs that rodents have been near your vehicle, like acorns or droppings. The engine, wheel wells and bumpers are popular places for rodents to hide their personal pantries.
- Don’t leave food, food wrappers or even bags from fast food restaurants in your car. Critters have a keen sense of smell and these can attract them.
- If your car, truck or SUV is parked somewhere for long periods of time, a critter may decide that it’s their new home! Be sure to move it from time to time even if it’s not used daily.
- Leaving moth balls or traps around your vehicle is a great idea if you can’t avoid wooded areas or have to leave the vehicle parked for any length of time.

Taking care of your tires is just as important as getting your oil changed. Both can help extend the life of your vehicle. When the days are long and hot, your tires can take a beating, especially since people tend to drive more during the summer. The days are longer, you drive around more and often take road trip vacations. When you have this kind of wear and tear on your vehicle, a tire rotation, brake pad inspection or vehicle alignment could be needed sooner than expected. At Tim’s Truck Capital and Auto Sales in Epsom NH, our service team can help make sure your tires are ready to tackle any summer adventure.
Why You Should Rotate Your Tires
When you rotate each tire from one wheel to another, you can even out any extra wear and tear that a specific wheel experiences. For most trucks and cars, the outer edges of the front tires lean over more when turning and have more surface area exposed. Without routine tire rotations, the increased strain will result in the need for your front tires to be replaced earlier than the back ones. Since most tire stores offer discounts when you buy a full set of four, this means tire rotations can actually save you money.
Wheel Alignment
Have you ever been driving and noticed that your car “pulls” to one side of the other? This is a sign that your wheels need alignment. An improper wheel alignment occurs when the wheels are no longer in a normal perpendicular position. The erratic movements caused by driving along bumps, holes or rough roads can throw your tires out of alignment. This will cause your tires to wear out more and even result in lower gas mileage.
Tim’s Truck Capital: Wheel Alignment And More
At Tim’s Truck Capital, you’ll find great used trucks NH and used cars NH for sale. You’ll also find a great service department that can keep your ride running great for years to come. Whether you need your wheels aligned, a brake job or want to order genuine OEM parts for your truck or vehicle, our factory-trained service technicians are here to help you.

2015 Was a Very Good Year For Trucks

So maybe you’re looking for a new truck. But what you really want is a good used truck. One not too old, with not a lot of miles, but with more than its share of bells and whistles. Smart move. Now it’s time to move on over to Tim’s Truck Capital and Auto Sales in Epsom NH, the leading dealership for used trucks NH! We’ve got a great selection used pickup trucks, and many were built in 2015—one of our favorite years for trucks.
The Top Mid Size Pickups In 2015
When it comes to mid size trucks in 2015, Car and Driver likes the Toyota Tacoma, Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon. The Toyota Tacoma has a ruggedly handsome exterior and great off road gear. The 2.7 litre four-cylinder with 180 lb-ft of torque is standard, and paired with a five speed manual or six-speed automatic. There’s also a 3.5-litre V-6 option that mates with a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic. When it’s properly equipped, the V6 can tow an impressive 6,800 pounds!
The Chevy Colorado is clever and capable. It’s available in three cab-and-bed configurations and offers almost as much utility as full-size pickups. A 2.5-liter inline-four with 191 lb-ft of torque is standard. You can also choose a 3.6-liter V-6 (275 lb-ft) and a 2.8-liter turbo-diesel inline-four (369 lb-ft), which has a tow rating of up to 7,700 lb. There are three transmission choices, as well as all-wheel-drive. With the trail-ready ZR2 trim, you get a unique suspension and other off-road kit.
When you buy a high quality used pickup truck, you can afford to get more extras than if you’re buying new. After all, you’re not paying for that depreciation as you drive it off the lot.
At Tim’s Truck Capital, we have a wide assortment of 2015 pickups trucks. If we don’t have exactly what you want, let us know and we’ll find it for you! We’ve been keeping pickup lovers happy since 1983! You can view our entire inventory online at www.timstruckcapital.com. And by the way—winter is coming and we have plow trucks for sale, too!

We’re not the only ones who love this sandwich shop—it’s ranked #1 on Yelp, too. Owners Gary and Nancy will call you by name if you’re a regular, which is a nice touch. It’s a great little pub that caters to beer fans. They have classics like rare roast beef, oven-roasted turkey, tuna melt and BLTs. The Sandwich Depot has also been votd Best Lunch in Concord every year since 2012! A real winner!
Parking can sometimes be challenging, but once you find a good spot, it’s worth it. Everything is made from scratch and absolutely delicious. We love their chicken salad, made from antibiotic-free real chicken breast and fresh vegetables. They buy their meat and produce from family farmers whenever possible. They have fresh wraps like ham and Vermont cheddar, California turkey and albacore tuna salad. They’re open 6-6 every day except Sunday, when they close at 5.

No matter when it happens, it’s never convenient when your Check Engine light comes on. It is especially frustrating if it comes on right after you took it in to Tim’s Truck Capital and Auto Sales for engine work. But there might be a good—albeit weird—explanation for it, especially if you live in an area with lots of trees, squirrels and other rodents. It could be that you’ve had some furry friends come for a visit.
What? Rodents?
Squirrels, mice and other rodents can get inside your engine compartment. Those furry critters can fit places you’d never imagine! When they sharpen their teeth on wires and hoses, it leads to electrical issues, a stalled vehicle or leaking fluids. Another reason they’ll try to get into your vehicle is because they smell food. Once they’re under your hood, they can make their way inside. Our used trucks NH dealership suggests the following to prevent unwanted guests:
- If you park near wooded areas, check for signs of rodents like acorns or droppings. Even if you have a garage they can get in! The engine, wheel wells and bumpers are great places hiding places for personal critter pantries.
- Don’t leave food baggies or crumbs in your vehicle. Rodents have a keen sense of smell and they will go searching.
- If your truck, SUV or sedan is parked somewhere for long periods of time, a critter might decide to call it their own. Be sure to move it from time to time if it’s not used daily.
- Leaving a few moth balls or traps around your vehicle is a great idea if you can’t avoid wooded areas or have to leave your vehicle parked for an extended period of time.
Tim’s Truck Capital And Auto Sales Will Get The Job Done
At Tim’s Truck Capital, we know nature takes its course. If you find that a rodent has made themselves at home in your vehicle, bring it in to our experienced service technicians at Tim’s Truck Capital and we’ll check things out.

Summer is winding down, and there are just a few weeks left for taking a family road trip. Before you pack up the kids and head to visit grandma or a national park, here are some tips for how you can handle the kids so everyone has a great time. After all, Tim’s Truck Capital and Auto Sales in Epsom wants you to enjoy yourself.
Plan Ahead
It’s important to plan ahead, pack strategically and not sweat the small stuff. Easier said than done, right? Let’s get started. First, use backpacks for each child’s belongings instead of putting everything in a big suitcase. It’s much easier to find their pajamas or favorite toy in a backpack instead of digging through the large suitcase to find what you need. Ave the large suitcase just for the parents. Pack a nice variety of snacks and drinks to keep your kids well-fed and hydrated. Have wipes in the car and a trash bag just in case of spills.
Keep Them Entertained
Be sure to bring favorite CDs, books, handheld electronic games, writing tablets and colored pencils with you. Leave the crayons at home because they can melt in a hot car. Card games like Go Fish are also great, as well as math or alphabet flash cards. Be sure you don’t forget their favorite stuffed animal or action figure, their blankie and a pillow. Get the whole family to play games like “I Spy,” road sign bingo, or the license plate game. If your truck has a DVD player, pack their favorite DVDs and one DVD they’ve never seen. If your trip is going to be longer than three days, consider packing wrapped small gifts that your kiddos can open during a particularly long stretch. A new toy or game will keep them occupied!
Come To Tim’s Truck Capital
Is your car feeling a little small for a family road trip? Come check out a new truck or SUV at Tim’s Truck Capital and Auto Sales in Epsom, NH. We have the largest selection of used trucks for sale in NH, and if we don’t have exactly what you want we’ll find it for you!

ones I wanted a closer look at, he was very knowledgeable of all the vehicles I was looking at and offered honest feedback. I ended up driving three trucks and Ben was super fast to get me into the driver’s seat to try them out. Very low pressure, very willing to help a new, or older buyer. I haven’t had great experiences with car lots and this one was great.”

Going on a road trip with the family this summer? Why not include your older relatives? Tim’s Truck Capital in Epsom, NH has some practical tips for you to keep in mind if seniors are included in your vacation plans. If you’re looking for used trucks NH, come see us.
Keeping It Simple
It’s important not to cram too much into your vacation itinerary. In fact, you should minimize the time spent in your vehicle. It’s wise to stop often at tourist destinations or for meals or bathroom breaks. Seniors shouldn’t sit for too long in the car to avoid the possibility of a blood clot forming in the legs. Travel earlier in the day when it is apt to be cooler. When you do make stops, make sure you accompany your elderly traveler. New places can be confusing to older individuals, especially if they are experiencing dementia. Enjoy your time together, take a slower pace and enjoy your family!
Plan Your Itinerary Wisely
Ask your elderly travelers for input in advance of the trip. Propose where you’ll be traveling to and find out if they have any special places they want to see or activities that they might enjoy. While traveling, point out places of interest. Provide a pillow and throw blanket in the vehicle for their comfort.
Help Them Pack
Be sure to help your elderly traveler(s) pack. Remember to pack extra hearing aid batteries, diabetic test strips and meter, support hose or other medical devices they may need. Make sure they have enough medication for the trip and have a list of all prescribed medicines and phone numbers of his or her physicians.
Safety First
Have a medic I.D. bracelet made for your traveling senior. Include any information that might be helpful, such as alerts for diabetes, dementia, a pacemaker and other such conditions. Put a card in their wallet with your name and mobile phone information in the event you become separated.
