Don't Get Stranded without a Winter Survival Kit!

Whether you believe in the farmer's almanac and weather superstitions or not, you've undoubtedly heard by now that this coming winter is supposed to be unbelievably cold and snowy here at the Lake of the Ozarks. Temperatures are already hovering at or below freezing, the woolly worms are solid black, and everyone is finding "spoons" in persimmons. These signs, coupled with a frigid winter last year, point towards another wickedly cold winter for central Missouri.


Everyone knows about the actions they should take to prepare their homes or boats for the winter months, but what about their cars? The team at Hulett Chevrolet-Buick-GMC is here to remind everyone to take some time now to also prepare your vehicles for winter. A winter survival kit can help protect you and your family while you're on the road during the freezing months ahead. Consider building two separate winter survival kits - one containing everything you might need for your vehicle and one containing everything you might need for you or your family.

Winter Survival Kit Ingredients For Your Vehicle

Snow shovel
Windshield scraper
Small broom
Matches
Jumper cables
Tire chains
Emergency flares
Flashlight and extra batteries

Winter Survival Kit Ingredients For You

Non-perishable snack food
Cell phone charger
Hand warmers
Blankets
Extra scarves, gloves, and socks
Snowboots
First-Aid kit
Water

Always Be Prepared!

Preparing for the worst may not stop the worst from happening, but it will definitely make it seem much more manageable. Ideally, the tools in the survival kit for your vehicle will enable you to get your car moving again if you get stuck in the snow. If you are unable to move yourself, though, then the items in your survival kit for you will keep you and your family warm, hydrated, and fed until help arrives.

Are you concerned about your current vehicle's ability to weather out the harsh winter ahead of us? Come by the Lake of the Ozarks' best auto dealership to find a new car before the cold really sets in! We have a wide selection of both new and pre-owned vehicles for sale.
