Let’s admit it, the weather the past month or so has gotten us Minnesotans excited for the spring season. We had record highs in March and the “official” start of spring was not too long ago, as well. Despite this new found rejuvenation, we must remember that spring driving can be a little misleading in the safety department and here are 5 reasons why you need to drive safely this spring. 

1) Rain and Flooding

April showers bring May flowers and that holds true for this time of year.

The nostalgia car carrier is back again and it is pumping Jerry Reed’s ‘Eastbound and Down!’

Its The Last Weekend to Visit the Minneapolis Auto Show

Earlier this week, Poquet management visited the 43rd Annual Minneapolis Auto Show, at the Minneapolis Convention Center, to check out the vehicles they will be selling next year. To say the least, they are excited for what will (literally) be in store in 2017.

During the trip, Dave and Anne decided to stop by Camp Jeep, a 4-wheel drive experience that takes you on a Trail Rated off-road course right inside the Auto Show’s main hall! Check out their video from the course!
