When you think about vehicle maintenance, your mind might go straight to things like oil changes, tire rotations, or brake pad replacements. You might not consider the upkeep of your vehicle's exterior to be maintenance. However, keeping the exterior clean can help your car look new and fight rust. Cleaning your car's exterior does not require a professional; it is a straightforward DIY project. However, before grabbing soap and a sponge, here are some car wash kit items to consider purchasing. They can help keep a vehicle looking newer longer. more 1. A Cleaning Agent Having a good cleaner designed specifically for cars is very important. A vehicle cleaning product helps remove dirt, grime, mud, bugs, and whatever else finds its way onto the body of the car. It can get rid of these difficult-to-remove impurities without damaging the paint, clear coat, or finish. Avoid using harsh detergents, such as dishwashing liquid. While some detergents can clean the exterior wheel well, they will make the paint look dull over time. Look for a car wash product that can lift dirt off the wax while maintaining its original shine. 2. Scrubber The tool you choose to scrub your car's exterior is just as important as the cleaner. While sponges effectively distribute water and soap over a large area, their porous texture might pick up stones and dirt in the process. These can create scratches on the car's finish as you scrub. The best tool to use for car-cleaning is a lambswool mitt. It is gentler than a sponge and still holds a lot of water and soap. This kind of mitt is easy to clean and far less likely to scratch the exterior finish. 3. A Wheel Cleaner Your car's wheels require just as much attention as the body. The wheels suffer much abuse from curb rash, heat, and brake dust. Because of this combination of harsh elements, you usually can't remove the dirt formed on wheels with the same cleaner used for car exteriors. You'll need something stronger. A wheel cleaner can get the job done. Make sure the cleaner you choose is made for the specific finish of your wheels. If you have chrome wheels, for instance, you should purchase a wheel cleaner formulated specifically for chrome surfaces. Once you've purchased a cleaner, wait until the wheels are cool to apply it. This is the optimal time to clean them. Use a bristled brush to work the soap in and remove unwanted grime without getting cleaner on the tires. 4. A Drying Cloth Drying a car will keep unsightly water spots from forming. This happens when water is allowed to evaporate on the vehicle. Use a water blade, chamois, or microfiber towel to dry your car effectively. Avoid using a household towel, because the fibers can harm the paint's finish. By keeping your car's paint and wheels in great condition, you can protect your vehicle and keep it looking like new for years to come. Image via Pixabay by JLMedia

Admission costs $14 for adults and $8 for kids between 12 and 17. The money goes toward The Arc of Sedgwick County and Starkey, two local charities. 2.

Hold your loved one's hand on Feb. 8, 2020, starting at 7:30 p.m. 3.

Despite a constant barrage of new competitors, year after year the Dodge Grand Caravan holds its position as a dependable family vehicle. While other minivans and SUVs introduce lots of bells and whistles, the Caravan sticks to the basics: safety, power, and economy. more 1. Safety Features The Dodge Grand Caravan's primary objective is to protect its passengers. Complete with a rock-solid steel frame that forms a cage of protection around your family, the Caravan is designed to get you and your loved ones through minor to moderate collisions. It has crumple zones that transfer the energy from the impact to the chassis instead of the precious cargo inside. The interior, while comfortable, is also engineered to help passengers stay safe. If the vehicle gets jostled while driving or in an accident, the armrests serve as stabilizers to keep passengers in the safety of their seats. 2. Power The Dodge Grand Caravan packs a surprising punch. Flexing a 283 horsepower, 3.6-liter V-6 engine, it has more than enough oomph to accelerate with a full load of passengers as you merge onto a highway or pull quickly through an intersection. The Caravan also has a six-speed automatic transmission geared to help drivers both accelerate smoothly at low speeds and whisk along the interstate above 50 mph. The sixth gear allows the Caravan to conserve fuel while cruising at speed, and the lower gears give it the jump it needs to navigate unpredictable traffic conditions. The Dodge Grand Caravan's engine also enables drivers to tow a small trailer, a moving container, or even another vehicle. All these horses chip in to provide a 3,600-pound tow rating. This powerhouse makes the Caravan a good option for not only towing valuable cargo but also loading up during a move or a big trip. 3. Easy on the Wallet The Dodge Grand Caravan's affordability is perhaps its claim to fame. The Caravan is significantly less expensive than other vehicles in its class. Dodge has focused on giving the Caravan the essentials and cutting out some of the unnecessary features that drive up its competition's prices. This doesn't mean buyers get a cheap, frumpy minivan. Dodge has designed the Caravan with a sleek, stylish exterior and a comfortable, sensible interior, so you can look good while you travel safely. 4. Reliability The Dodge Grand Caravan's dependability cannot be overstated. Dodge's engines, chassis, and interiors have stood the test of time and weathered an array of challenges over the years. It's not uncommon to see Caravans on the road for 15 years or longer, easily surpassing the 150,000-mile mark. The Caravan gives owners a sense of confidence because they know they have a vehicle that is not only sturdy but also a safe solution for their family and friends. Although the Dodge Grand Caravan is best known for its attractive price tag, the features of the vehicle itself are hard to overlook. It helps keep your family safe while providing enough power to haul both your valuables and your loved ones and letting you have a little fun along the way. Image via Dodge.com
