Only two states have a dual system for vehicle inspections and New Jersey is one of those states. What it means is you can have your vehicle inspected at a private inspection facility (PIF) or a central inspection facility (CIF). There are a couple of differences you need to know to ensure you take your vehicle to the right facility. 

Everyone who owns a vehicle in New Jersey has to pass a state inspection to keep driving it legally. Sometimes you may think everything with your vehicle is fine until you receive the dreaded failed inspection notice. There are a few things to know about how the inspection process works. And most importantly, you should know what steps to take if your vehicle receives a failed inspection. We’ve got you covered with all the relevant information.

When people think of DeBoer’s Auto, the first thing that comes to mind is usually the quality service we provide. We couldn’t be happier about all of the satisfied customers we have helped in the past years, but we are never completely satisfied. That’s why we wanted to take our service up a notch and release a new book dedicated to helping fleet owners thrive. It’s called Profitable Fleet Management Guide For Small and Medium Size Businesses. Our goal for the book is to help small business owners succeed by thinking smarter and using practical tips in their businesses.

DeBoer’s Auto doesn’t place a lot of emphasis on titles within our organization. Instead, our focus is on roles and responsibilities. We run under the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) and one of the valuable tools we have is an accountability chart. This handy accountability chart breaks down the different levels and sectors we have. It also can highlight some holes we need to fill by hiring new employees to help meet the high standard we have set for our customers. And by doing so, we ensure our employees are operating at maximum efficiency and aren’t spread too thinly. 

One of the downsides of electric vehicles is having to find a charging station when you’re on road trips or in unfamiliar places. The good news is there are multiple apps to help you find EV charging stations near your location. Downloading one or more of these apps can help when you’re in a pinch and reduce some inconveniences. You never know when a rental car company will give you an electric vehicle to drive, so it’s best to be prepared. Here’s what you need to know about EV charging station phone apps.

As we step into the new year, you might be experiencing a little anxiety. The constant delivery of cards and well wishes in December are now replaced with the pay me now portion of the holiday expenditure. The repairs and services you were putting off until the new year might just be taking another back seat to the credit card statements promising a 25% fee on your great deals from the holiday sales. 

If you're struggling with the importance of keeping your car safe or keeping your credit score in good standing you may not have to face such a pull in either direction. 

Wintertime is tough on your vehicle. It is a constant battle against ice, snow, and the dreaded potholes that seem to come out of nowhere. 

Keeping up with your finances can be challenging, especially after the holidays when the credit card bills start coming in. Maybe you were putting off some maintenance on your vehicle until after the New Year, and realizing your finances are not in as good of shape as you had thought.
Addressing important repairs on your vehicle is particularly important during the winter months, as the weather can be especially hard on your car. Here at DeBoer’s, we can help you get your car in optimum condition and help with some financing options that will help take some of the pressure off of you. 

For the last 7 months, we’ve been patiently waiting to be able to give you one of our highly anticipated announcements. You may be familiar with our Store Manager, Tina Ormond. Well, she’s been busy growing a little human this year, and he’s finally decided to make his appearance!

Welcome to the World, Easton Douglas!
