3 Ways to Upgrade Your Truck This Summer

Improve your pickup truck with these three tips.

This time of year, you'll likely take your pickup truck for a spin more than usual, as summer is the season for home improvement, outdoor projects, and travel. When you want to ride in style and get the most out of your trip, consider these automotive accessories:

Purchase a Tonneau Cover

Tonneau covers are incredibly useful products that attach to the back of your pickup and protect any items inside from falling out. These are perfect for long distances and travel, and they are especially useful if you plan to transport heavy, fragile items using your truck. That way, your items will be safe from excessive wind, hail, snow, rain, and even dust and debris. Tonneaus are the best defense against any obstacles.

Upgrade Your Exhausts

We know this one might make you raise an eyebrow, as aftermarket purchases like this one may seem unnecessary or even flashy, but don't knock it till you try it! A replacement exhaust does make your engine louder (and some people enjoy this!), but it can also significantly improve your pickup's ability to "breathe." Air flows more evenly throughout your vehicle, which allows the truck to use less energy and run more efficiently. This means two things: one, your truck will live a little longer, and two, you'll be spending less money on gas-- a HUGE benefit in our eyes.

Consider Entry Steps

Some trucks already have these built in, but older models aren't so considerate. Because trucks usually sit far from the ground, it can be difficult for some people (especially young children and elderly individuals) to pull themselves into the vehicle without injury. Entry steps are helpful because they attach to the edge of the truck and provide that extra step for those who have difficulties getting inside.

Now that you know how you're spending your bonus money this week, you'll need to know where you can purchase these items! Just call Classy Chassis to inquire about availability at 419-281-6680 and pick up your items when you visit us in Ashland!

Electronic Corrosion Protection?

Car owners living in wintry climates like Ohio are constantly worried about cleaning road salt off their vehicles at the end of the day, to prevent rust from occurring. There are several ways to prevent corrosion. There is undercoating, spraying a tar-based substance on the exposed parts of a vehicle's underbody. There is dripless oil spray, a wax-like substance applied to the entire body of the vehicle, it hardens once it has dried. There is drip oil spray, and that is the most commonly recommended rust protection. But there is one new, greener method of corrosion protection , electronic corrosion protection (ECP). Electronic Corrosion Module protects the entire vehicle ECP emits a low power, pulse-wave, radio-frequency signal across all sheet metal surfaces of the vehicle. It protects against rust perforation that starts from the inside-out or the outside-in, even if it's caused by stone chips or scratches. The module's electromagnetic pulse-wave is effectiv...

Ceramic Paint Coating vs. Dealership Paint Coating

Ceramic paint coating services are provided by Classy Chassis in Ashland, Ohio. If you've recently bought a new car from a dealership, you've probably been offered a paint protection program. Yet, you might be wondering what other options are out there, and if those services are really as great as your salesman is making them out to be. Ceramic coating is an alternative option, and the process involved is much more intricate than the service you'll get elsewhere. This isn't to say that local dealers are necessarily bad, but you'll get more for your money when you bring your vehicle to a professional ceramic coater.   Oftentimes, professional coaters are very knowledgeable and have enough experience to know that rushing the process is not going to result in a quality coating. They'll make sure your vehicle has a clean surface before application, and they'll allow the coating to cure properly. The difference isn't just in the careful attention to detail t...
