Happy almost turkey day! Thanksgiving is just days away, and for many people, this Thanksgiving is going to look a little different. With rising COVID19 numbers, many people have decided to opt out of the traditional large family gathering events. However, just because you might be stuck at home this holiday, doesn’t mean you can’t get into the holiday spirit! Below you will find alternative ways to connect with your family this Thanksgiving, and you’ll even find some new traditions that might stick around for next year! So take a peek below and be sure to have a safe and fun Thanksgiving!

 

Alternative Ways To Celebrate This Thanksgiving:

Host A Virtual Thanksgiving Meal With Friends & Family

  • Livestream your festivities with friends and family. This is a good way to see and talk with your loved ones without the risk of exposure. 
  • You can start with appetizers – have each party explain what appetizer they “brought” and rate who’s was the best
  • Once dinner is served, set the camera up to the table and feast with your family and friends. Feel free to share recipes or even watch the big game together. 

TV & Games With Household Members

  • It’s no secret there’s a lot to watch on TV during Thanksgiving. If your staying home this year, watching TV together or playing games as a family can be a great way to connect.
  • Watch Thanksgiving Day parades, sports, and Christmas movies at home.
  • Find a fun game to play – pull out all your favorite board games and have a family board game night!

Black Friday Online Shopping

  • Shop online sales the day of Thanksgiving and the days leading up to the winter holidays.
  • Use contactless services for purchased items, like curbside pick-up.
  • Shop in open air markets staying 6 feet away from others and wear a mask

Other Ideas

  • Safely prepare traditional dishes and deliver them to family and neighbors in a way that does not involve contact with others (for example, leave them on the porch).
  • Participate in a gratitude activity, like writing down things you are grateful for and sharing with your friends and family.
  • Clean out your basement of gently used or new toys, clothes, etc and donate them this holiday season 
  • Look up family-friendly Thanksgiving crafts 
  • Have a bake-off! Have the kids help bake or see who can come up with the best dessert for Thanksgiving.

Before the snow and ice start falling you’re going to want to make sure your vehicle is ready for whatever winter throws its way. If you think your current ride isn’t in shape to get you where you want to go safely this winter, then it might be time for an upgrade! Lucky for you King Volkswagen has a wide variety of new, used, and certified pre-owned vehicles for you to shop! Thinking right now isn’t the time to invest with the holidays right around the corner?

So if you change your mind and are looking to upgrade your current ride, be sure to schedule your test drive online or stop into King VW this month!

Reasons To Buy This November

Goodbye 2020’s Hello 2021’s 

  • As we approach the end of the year, new model year vehicles make their way onto dealerships lots 
  • This means dealerships must make room for the incoming inventory. This means finding unbeatable incentives, offers, and savings on remaining inventory shouldn’t be too hard!

Thanksgiving/Black Friday Deals 

  • Thanksgiving/Black Friday is known for producing HUGE DEALS on just about anything you can purchase. This is no different for car dealerships. 
  • It’s not guaranteed, but most dealerships will do a Black Friday savings event to offer money off new vehicles, dropping lease offers, or even low financing. 
  • We suggest taking some time to do research on the vehicle you’re looking for, and seeing what kind of sales are being offered during these events!

Compact & Mid-Sized Sedan Savings 

  • Because of the winter months, SUVs are in high demand, which means you won’t find huge incentives on these types of vehicles. 
  • However, if you’re looking for a compact/ mid-sized sedan or hatchback, you might get lucky with deals because fewer shoppers are looking for them this time of year.

Sales Quotas 

  • Every dealership has a year-end goal, aka a number of vehicles they want to be sold. With the year coming to an end, they will really be pushing to hit their goal. 
  • This is good news for shoppers because the dealership might be offering bug deals to help move inventory to meet their quotas!

King Volkswagen is here to help you with your winter service needs! Sometimes it’s hard to believe that November is in full swing, but the reality is that winter will be here before we know it. What does this mean for you/ Well, it means that if you haven’t had time to get your winter service completed for your Volkswagen, now is the time to get started. Whether you need something as simple as an oil change or filter change or something a little bigger, our team of certified service technicians are here to help you complete your list in no time!

So take a peek below for some fun ideas and be sure to have a fun and safe Halloween!

Low-Risk Activities 

  • Carving or decorating pumpkins with members of your household 
  • Setting up a table in the driveway to dress up and carve pumpkins with neighbors while socially distancing 
  • Doing a Halloween scavenger hunt where children are given lists of Halloween-themed things to look for while they walk outdoors from house to house admiring Halloween decorations at a distance
  • Zoom parties are all the rage! Have a virtual custom party with your friends and family
  • Having a Halloween movie night with people you live with
  • Having a scavenger hunt-style trick-or-treat search with your household members in or around your home rather than going house to house

Moderate Risk Activities 

  • One-way trick-or-treating where individually wrapped goodie bags are lined up for kids to grab.
  • Small-group outdoor costume parade where people are six feet apart.
  • Attending a costume party outdoors where protective masks are used and people can social distance.
  • Going to an open-air, one-way, walk-through haunted forest where mask use is enforced.
  • Pumpkin patches or orchards.
  • Outdoor Halloween movie night with local family and friends spaced at least six feet apart.

Higher Risk Activities To Avoid

  • Traditional trick-or-treating without masks and social distancing.
  • Crowded costume parties held indoors.
  • Indoor haunted houses.
  • Hayrides or tractor rides with people who aren’t in your household.
  • Traveling to a rural fall festival outside of your community.

*Advice from the CDC

It might be hard to believe, but winter is right around the corner, and before the snow starts falling we want to help you get your Volkswagen prepared for the months ahead. That’s why this week’s blog is all about the essential items you should have in your car before you hit the road this winter! Think of it as a winter emergency kit in case you find yourself broken-down, in an accident, or in need of some minor medical assistance. Take a peek below at our 12 essentials and if you find you’re in need of service or repairs for your VW, give us a call or schedule your appointment online today!

Must-Have Winter Accessories:

Ice scraper and snow brush 

  • With winter right around the corner, it’s crucial to have a sturdy ice scraper and snow brush in your vehicle.
  • Whether you’re leaving work, the mall, the grocery store, etc, snow can obstruct your view, and just using your wipers to clear your view can be dangerous for other drivers when the snow flies off at them. 

Small/Collapsible shovel 

  • Keeping a small or collapsible shovel in your truck can be a lifesaver if you find your vehicle stuck in the snow or if you have to clear a path to drive

Gloves, hats, scarves, etc.

  • You have the snow brush and shovel, but now you need to actually use them.
  •  Having extra gloves will be a lifesaver when you have to brush off your vehicle, pump gas, or even change a tire!

Blanket

  • Doesn’t everybody have extra blankets lying around at home? Just me? Well, if you have an extra blanket, throw it in your trunk in case you find yourself in an accident having to stand outside, or experience a breakdown in colder temperatures. 

Emergency flares or reflectors

  • Finding yourself stuck in the snow? Ensure other vehicles can see you with emergency flares or reflectors

Rock salt 

  • Stuck in the snow? Did ice form around your tires? Gain traction with rock salt, sand, or kitty litter! 
  • Spread the material near your tires and in your car’s path to get out of a slippery situation.

First aid kit 

  • This is an all-year-round necessity, but it’s always good to replenish what you need in your first aid kit 
  • Whether your passenger has a small cut or you’re in an accident and need to be bandaged up, a first aid kit is crucial to this list

Extra windshield washer fluid 

  • Make sure your windshield washer fluid has antifreeze components to prevent it from freezing. Clearing your windshield with fluid will improve visibility in a winter storm.

Flashlight

  • We all know it gets dark very early during the winter months. Having a flashlight in your trunk is always a good idea. 
  • Whether you need it for maintenance purposes or even to feel safer when walking to and from your vehicle. 

Jumper cables

  • Cold weather can affect a car’s battery. You can’t start your car if the battery’s dead, which means you won’t be able to use the car’s heater for warmth. Waiting for a jump start in the cold is not fun. You won’t have to wait as long if you have jumper cables with you.

Cell phone charger 

  • It’s always important to keep your phone charged before hitting the road but with maps, music, and more, your battery can die quickly 
  • Keep your phone charged up in case you need to make a call for assistance or need your maps for directions 

Water and non-perishable snacks 

  • Breakdowns are never fun and sometimes happen in the worst place. This means if you find yourself stranded, waiting for a tow truck and it might be a while before you get help, having a snack to hold you over is always helpful
