The story of human development is the story of innovation, creating something new from something old, whether that be an old idea or an old invention. Civilizations that weren’t able to innovate past their trials, (or at least past their competitors), found themselves thrust into dark ages and — at the very worst — extinction. At Master Muffler, we are drawn to man’s spirit of progress, manifesting spiritually as a dream and physically as [...]
With so many different auto care garages in operation, customers will naturally be drawn to the one that fills certain particular criteria, namely the convenience of the garage’s location, the fairness of the charged price, the knowledge of the staff, and the trust that no “funny business” is trying to be worked over on them. At Master Muffler, we recognize that each of these metrics is important both individually and as a whole and [...]
The last few decades have seen a tremendous leap in green living sensibilities. Not only are people investing in renewable energy sources and beginning to be more environmentally minded, but corporations are also beginning to understand the impact that they have on nature. In the automotive industry, significant leaps have been made to innovate on electric and hybrid vehicles with a more eco-friendly design. This isn’t necessarily a new trend, however. While the technology [...]
In many ways, the family car is more than a vehicle; it’s a tool for compromise between strict parents and their eager teenagers; it’s a symbol of freedom, something that will carry the family in a forward direction, both literally and figuratively; it’s an instrument to help provide for the family by taking parents to work, and then to the grocery store, and then home; it’s a learning opportunity to teach kids responsibility, both [...]
Owning a car is not unlike owning a house; some repairs require a professional to come in and take care of, while others you can do on your own. While there will always be a need for professional auto care technicians (and our Riverton shop has proven repeatedly to be one of the best in the entire state), some people want to try their hand at fixing their car’s issues themselves. Learning a few [...]
According to the Department of Transportation, over 70 percent of the nation’s roads are located in snowy regions. Because of this, more than 116,800 people per year are injured in vehicle crashes due to snowy road conditions while millions of dollars are spent to repair damage due to the same. Although some of these figures are a result of driver negligence or poor winter driving habits, it is safe to assume that, at least [...]
At Master Muffler, we understand that the times we live in can be tricky financially. Sometimes our scheduled plans like car maintenance are put on the backburner when funds are tight and every penny saved is important. We get it! But we also realize the important role your vehicle plays in your daily life. Whether it’s driving the kids to a place where they can get out while safely socially distancing, or taking a [...]
We’ve all been there. One day our car is running smoothly and efficiently, somewhere down the line the vehicle starts running with a bit of trouble, but nothing you feel too alarmed about. Then, “out of nowhere” our vehicle has some major issues that cause it to run rough or not at all. With other stresses feeling up our lives, sometimes it’s our trusty transport that ends up not getting the regular attention it [...]
Most vehicle owners follow one of three processes when it comes to changing the oil in their vehicles. Commonly, the yellow light may come on in their dashboard, warning the driver that the life of the oil has come to an end. Whether you’re one to refresh or change your oil before that warning light even turns on, or wait it out until your vehicle has reached well over the mileage number on your [...]
With gas prices down and temperatures on their way up—accompanied by the crazed groundhog days that are known as COVID-19—more and more people are turning toward scenic drives. Drives that signify life, spring is upon us, and these gloomy days of social distancing will soon be in our rearview. Before you take off on that spur-of-the-moment road trip or head out for the Oregon coast, consider a spring car maintenance checklist. Protect your family [...]
