Did you know that in the United States the average age of cars and light trucks on the roads today has reached a record high of 9.4 years? That means it’s more important than ever to take proper care of your vehicle.
With the informative Web site www.MotorOilMatters.org (created by the maker of industry-leading brands Pennzoil and Quaker State) you can easily locate key information about how quality motor oils can help prolong your engine’s life and improve overall efficiency, as well as help answer other questions you may have about motor oil. In addition, the site offers a fun, educational game for you to play called “M.O.M. Knows Best” where you can put your motor mind to the test with an interactive quiz.
Did you know?
- According to a recent survey from the Automotive Service Association, more than 54 percent of customers who take their vehicles for service and repair are women
- Using a high-quality motor oil in the right grade can help maximize fuel economy
- Low-quality oils that do not meet industry standards or the vehicle manufacturer’s requirements could cost consumers in the long run by potentially damaging the vehicle’s engine or possibly voiding the manufacturer’s warranty
- Another reason to look to a high-quality motor oil – like Pennzoil and Quaker State - is that it is designed to meet the demands of today’s engines

Not being creative ;) But recently had to take a road trip with my mom to go visit her aunt at MD Anderson, a10 hour trip round trip...anyway on the way home my mom accidently bumps the gear shift and I'm in second gear on the highway....needless to say it almost killed my engine and when we finally made it home I had to have a $200 tranmission flush (the transmission fluid was as thick and the color of motor oil)
So a $35 jiffy lube gift card would be great :)

Because winning gift cards for something practical is frugal! You know, the new black?
Hellooo!
I just signed up for an Art class at Goldenwest college, so now I need to take better care of my car so that it gets me there and back!!

I think it would be helpful to us if we win the $35 card. My husband is long overdue to get the oil changed in his truck. He keeps talking about doing it, but for some reason, with this last oil change need, he hasn't done it yet. UGH! However, if he were to win the $35 card, I feel he would be motivated to finally get the oil changed. This would be in the best interest of the life of the truck in addition to keeping the air quality cleaner. And just maybe, this could be the beginning of him being motivated in other areas of his life, too!
Thank you for your consideration.
Love you lots - Mom
I tried to make this sound as generic as possible for when you read it to Mat.
I'd like to win this for my husband as a Father's Day gift, so that he can take a break from doing the oil change himself.
