The 2017 solar eclipse is coming soon and people are getting excited. You might start hearing terms thrown around that you don’t understand, like path of totality, and we are here to help. The path of totality is a term coined for a specific 70-mile-wide path across the U.S. from Oregon to South Carolina. The path of totality is significant because anyone inside the path at the time of the eclipse on August 21st will be able to see a total solar eclipse, where the moon completely blocks the sun. Anyone outside of the path of totality will only be able to view a partial solar eclipse. Luckily for Missouri residents, part of Missouri resides inside the path.

There is no cut and dry answer when it comes to oil change timelines because it depends on the make and model of your car. Most experts can agree though that the 3,000 mile rule that had been standard for years is no longer necessary for newer vehicles. Some new vehicles can go as long as 10,000 miles before needing to head in for a service. The best way to see how often you should be getting an oil change is to read your car’s manual. Not only should it list the length of time between oil changes but it should also tell you if you should be buying synthetic or conventional oil. Can you drive further with synthetic oil?
