We are experiencing some record breaking temperatures in the Pacific NW. We tend to lean towards mild summers with temperatures in the Mid-70's, maybe hitting 80. But this past week we have been experience upper 80's, even hitting the 90's. The east side of the state of Washington has seen temperatures over 100. The other day, Walla Walla was hotter than Phoenix.  

During extreme temperatures, like heat, it is not just our bodies that we need to protect, we also need to take care of our vehicles.  This article from AMSOIL - How Extreme Heat Affects Your Engine, talks about how the extreme heat can be harsh on a vehicle. AMSOIL makes some great products to help with protecting our vehicles during the hot summer months. Make sure you keep you and your vehicles cool this summer.

"Signature Series’ high-performance additives and quality base oils offer improved resistance to heat, maximizing the performance and life of your engine and keeping it clean."

What an adventure. 

I am back from AMSOIL University and ready to go to work. Fresh ideas, new company tools, exciting new products, and renewed dedication to our dealer network. You will start to see some new and exciting AMSOIL brand promotion and marketing approach.

This year’s AMSOIL University will be the last formal AU as we know it. The company knows more people would like to attend AU, yet the expense for the trip to Superior can be daunting, especially from far corners of the country. AMSOIL University will now be offered on the corporate website, as far as I know, for free. Now any AMSOIL dealer can access the curriculum and learn at their own pace. 

In an effort to upgrade everyone’s knowledge level, corporate has added a feature known as, Knowledgebase, another web-based information source designed to increase company and product knowledge. Recognizing the need for an updated dealer website program, AMSOIL teamed with Empowerkit, to offer a more useful web-based marketing tool for dealer websites. 

AMSOIL is dedicated to its dealer network. These are just some of the more obvious ways they are working to help us be more effective. Along with improvements in the mechanics of learning and operating an AMSOIL business, this company has shown it has an unwavering dedication to bringing top of the line products to their customers. With a test lab that proves that nothing comes close to protecting engines like AMSOIL. I wish everyone could witness the testing, quality control, and overall dedication, from the lowest worker in the chain to our new Presidents. This company is pressing on into the future full-speed, and is dedicated to being the best for years to come.
