It’s about that time of year again: the end of summer vacation.

Yes, your perfect little monsters whom you love unconditionally are finally getting back into some semblance of a routine. Which means you should be getting a break from summer break! (Oh, the irony…)

Unfortunately, you aren’t getting a break just yet. 

Between the daily school pick-ups and drop-offs and nearly weekly traveling for away games across the state, you’ve still got your work cut out for you.

You might even have to make a cross-country road trip to help your recent high school grad settle into college.

Regardless of what your back to school schedule looks like, your vehicle will be there with you every mile of the way.

Make sure you show that loveable hunk of junk or sparkling beauty the love it deserves with this back to school vehicle maintenance checklist:
