Cold Calculations
I
n the rush of the holiday season
blitz, it's easy to overlook how
cold, wet, snowy weather is the
greatest challenge to the vehicles
we rely on for those ski getaways, family visits and all that
Christmas shopping — let alone lugging home the family tree.
But planning ahead for winter-specific vehicle maintenance
can eliminate the stress and expense of a breakdown while
greatly improving safety on the road. The checklist is
relatively short, too:
Battery testing and cleaning
Tires that match Four snow tires or four all-season
tires, inflated to manufacturer specifications
Lights and signal check

BUYERS' MARKET
Although September 2011 saw the best back-to-school
consumer spending spree since 2006, retailers are not
counting on the same sales levels through the holiday
season — which means, according to consumer experts,
that shopper-luring discounts and specials will continue
through the New Year.
The deal: Even more good news for shoppers — the
Members-only benefits of a BCAA Membership,
including generous holiday-season savings.
