I have my mechanic son give my car a thorough going over before winter sets in.

Have your location turned on your car so someone can track you in case you get stuck or lost.
In Florida summer is tougher than winter. Overheating cars, broken AC, and dead batteries are common culprits.
Try to spray off salt from your vehicle as soon as possible after you have driven on salted roads. This keeps your vehicle from rusting.
Winter no problem here in Florida. Summertime means drained batteries, overheating and AC issues
Those jumper cables would be awesome
Winters aren’t bad in Florida. Summer time brings more issues.
Winter is not too much of an issue in Florida. Summer presents dead batteries, overheating, and inadequate cooling
Great items all bundled together to keep it organized and easy to transport.
Carry a winter emergency kit. Make sure it has a flashlight with extra batteries, big blanket in case you get stranded in the cold, drinking water, ice scraper, jumper cables, first aid kit and snacks.
Live in Florida, so winter not too bad. Summer, however, presents battery drain and overheating issues
I always switch out my windshield wiper fluids, recheck the tire pressure and keep extra blankets, gloves. myalar blanket, water and some energy bars. Also have a long retractable “stick ” that you can attach a help banner on
Winter isn'[t a huge issue here in Florida, but summer presents it’s own issues. Batteries draining, overheating, and AC breakdowns are common
I live in Florida, so winter is no problem. Summer time presents dead batteries or overheating.
In the winter, there is a lot of dirty slush on the roads. So I like to carry Windex and paper towels in my car so that I can wash my head lights and tail lights when they get covered with dirt.
Put cardboard under your wiper on your windshield to keep snow/ice/frost of your window in wintery weather.
Always have a full tank or close to it in case you are stuck somewhere and have to run the car on and off for heat.
Winters are not a real problem here in Florida. Summers mean dead batteries and other issues

Not as concerned about winter – I live in Florida. This is useful to me in the middle of summer – battery drain.
Top off antifreeze, install new window wiper blades, check tire treads.
The prize is useful. I am not a fan of this type of sweepstakes – asking too much from contestants
I need that! Thanks for the chance!
Not park on the corner, more accidents happen there. tuck the side mirror in on the road side. flip up windshields overnighy so they don’t freeze to the window.
not as concerned about winter ass I live in Florida. The prize would be useful regardless,
My car care tip is to invest in a microfiber cloth and use that to wipe the car down between washes and protect the wax
i live inflorida. winter is generally less of a problem than summer. Summer heat drains batteries
Whenever it gets warm enough, spray off the undercarriage to remove the salt.
I really need this
keep sand and a small shovel in your trunk for snow emergencies
This is awesome this would really help us out
I recommend checking your tire pressure after temperatures have dropped. The freezing cold can reduce the PSIs below minimum safety levels.
Salt is bad for your car. You should wash it ASAP after salt.
I always travel with a sleeping bag in my car in the winter. That way if I should become stranded, I will be able to stay warm.
Try to make a point of washing the car in the winter months to get the salt off.
Always carry extra windshield washer fluid in yucky weather.
I do like to make sure when winter starts that we put new windshield wipers on all of our cars. Wipers only seem to last one year the sun in summer really dries them out.
I make sure I have a blanket flashlight and a couple of tools in my truck during the winter months.
Living in Chicago it’s definitely important to carry a bag of salt, shovel, blanket in our cars for emergencies where you can get stuck in snow
I make sure my tires, wiper blades and fluids are good.
One is to make sure that we have plenty of antifreeze in your car. And also fluid for your wipers.
Our weather here is very mild in the winter. We don’t do anything different its the same all year round.
