VehicleMD was created for you, the automotive maintenance customer. We know how you feel because we're right there with you. You're tired. Overworked. Busy. And the last thing you need is to be inundated with a sales pitch you don't understand delivered by a well-meaning technician. Which is where we come in.

Our aim is to explain automotive maintenance in easy, practical terms. Each quarterly issue of VehicleMD will feature articles that will show you how the wide variety of high-tech maintenance services available today can keep your car running longer, help you save money at the pump, keep you safe on the road, and keep you healthy when you're behind the wheel. And we'll do it in a way you can understand. We speak "car," but we also know how to translate it into a language that everyone can understand. Simple, easy. So when you have to make a decision about your vehicle's maintenance, it will be an educated decision based on what services you believe will benefit you the most.

Each issue of VehicleMD will also be available right here at vehiclemd.com. Just use your Flash-enabled browser to flip through the pages of VehicleMD in stunning digital color. Plus, we've also provided a glossary that will teach you how to speak "car" and links to sites that can make you a more educated driver and customer.

Finally, if you have a question about something on your car—specifically if it is maintenance related—don't hesitate to ask. We like to say the doctor is always in! Just e-mail your question to: doctor@vehiclemd.com. We'll have our team of technical experts look it over and whip out an answer promptly.

We hope you enjoy VehicleMD. If you have any comments or questions about the magazine or website, e-mail: editor@vehiclemd.com
