July 5, 2022
Have you checked out the price of new vehicles at Royal Oak car dealers? Ouch! Add financing and insurance and a new ride may not seem so attractive. A lot of Royal Oak, Michigan, folks are hoping to make their cars last a lot longer.
Fortunately, with the current state of automotive engineering and manufacturing, there's no reason a modern vehicle can't be made to last for a 150,000 miles (250,000 kilometers) or more for smart Royal Oak drivers.
