WE SHINE RIDES AND HELP YOU FEEL GREAT WHEN YOU DRIVE
 Here we are again at the close of another year, with changes to the familiar and with amazing possibilities ahead. Looking back on another fun-filled year of bringing to you a continuing series of posts on our blog, we have sought to provide relevant and interesting information relating to vehicles as well as to life in our outstanding community. Tracking back through 2014, we looked at the history of valentines day, some of the valley's events and opportunities, a tax help blog, a summer idea blog, and information concerning a variety of community events as just some of the many blog posts from this year. If you missed them you can still check them out in our previous blog posts. Much of the year has been steady in the shop. We have seen a number of great vehicles and had some exciting times cleaning dirty cars. Our gift certificates have been very popular during through the year as well as the holiday season. All of that said, we would love to be your one stop for your vehicle detailing needs this coming year as well. For those that want to improve their schedule this year we hope to offer more ways to stay on top of the little things at home. By offering detailing tips and other needed insights, we hope to be a resource you can go to in 2015 for quick ideas, clearer focus, and of course, a great vehicle clean. In a business that appreciates attention to detail, we plan to keep helpful content coming. Your after-Christmas-week may be full of alot of small tasks that add up. We want to lighten your full load if you have a list to get done before the new year, which may include writing out your New Year's goals; finding a good place to drop off an old Christmas tree, and cleaning up your home (or vehicle) before the start of another busy week. We are excited to emphasize the use of WeatherTech floor mats in our newly cleaned vehicles, as well as improving our technology and service to you. Your comments and advice will be pivotal in advancing in our services to you. What have you enjoyed this last year? With a new year comes new plans for improvement. Share your thoughts. If you enjoyed something from any of our blogs, tell us what you like the best from what you have read. It helps us keep offering quality content. Keeping a month to month pace as we move onward through the year 2015 is important, and we are excited to develop a deeper connection with our customers. We want to know where we can continue to give you the best service, and we want to find out exactly where more help is needed. If you are familiar with our company, you know that we are eager to give you a great detail, to keep up your vehicle's appearance and performance. Watch for exciting things this new year on our website. If you see the need for a car detail sometime in the near future, don't hesitate to get on our schedule while the choice appointment openings are still available.
