Automobile Basics

Ever wonder how your car works? Not quite sure if you actually need the service your mechanic is suggesting? Want to merge onto the highway of possibilities with a little less concern about car troubles and decrease your dependability on AAA? This class is the first step toward becoming a more informed vehicle owner, driver, or passenger. Join local engineer Will Rice as he walks us through the basics when it comes to your most relied upon appliance. After learning about the essentials, we'll get some hands-on practice by taking a look under the hood for some guided "Show and Tell." Plan to leave this class with a more solid grasp on the fundamental parts that make up your car or truck and how they all work together.

Please wear close-toed shoes and clothes that are okay to get dirty. We'll have rags and gloves on hand.

This class is useful for those who are not sure how to tell the difference between a radiator and alternator, and especially those who are planning to be a new and upcoming driver!
