[December 15, 2010]  Without a doubt, winter can be hard on our vehicles and it's important to make sure everything about the vehicle is running correctly, ready for the cold and the harsh conditions.

That's why, even though they might not be considered the most personal of gifts, auto service and parts can be not only essential, but also show a person that you care about them.

At Graue Inc., 1905 N. Kickapoo in Lincoln, you can not only get that special someone much-needed vehicle services or repairs, but you can rest easy that they will be done by an acclaimed and award-winning service department.

The service department at Graue is staffed with factory-trained and ASE-certified technicians. With the latest equipment and General Motors parts, your car will be repaired to the highest standard. The parts department also carries genuine GM accessories to customize your vehicle.

Right now at Graue you can get three great services for one great price. An oil change, four-tire rotation and 27-point vehicle inspection is just $39.95 with a coupon in LDN, listed below.

Plus, there are other great prices on standard maintenance that is necessary to keep your gift receiver's vehicle running in tip-top condition.

Another great gift idea from Graue's is from the Detail Shop. Now with a coupon available in this publication, you can give a wash and wax for $65. (See the coupon below for more details.)

Another great gift from Graue's is a complete car detail for only $99.95. After another long winter, getting the car back to looking like it did this summer is a great gift for anyone on your list. A detail includes a wash and wax, plus tires cleaned, as well as interior cleaned and carpets shampooed to help get rid of those ugly remnants of winter.

So, for motorists on your list, think Graue for special, caring gifts.

If you have a do-it-yourselfer on your list, then auto care parts and tools can be found at our NAPA store at 111 Decatur St. in Lincoln. The store has been a staple of automotive parts and tools for years and is a member of the huge, $8 billion-a-year NAPA family.

Right now the Lincoln NAPA has a special $5 rebate check on all Legend batteries. A vehicle battery might not initially seem like a very personal gift, but on a very cold day, being able to trust your car will start will give peace of mind to you as well as the receiver of your thoughtfulness.

Another great winter car gift at NAPA is a Car Start 1000 portable jump-starter with light to prevent having to call a tow truck or be stranded in a harsh storm. The jump-starter is specially priced at $44.99.

NAPA also has on sale an Outdoorsman battery charger for only $99.99, a savings of $50.

There is much more at the Lincoln NAPA store, with many great automotive products and tools at affordable prices for everyone's budget.

They currently have 60-piece socket sets, one-fourth and three-eighths inch, for only $11.99.

Real stocking stuffers are several Irwin tools, all for under $15. Or how about a 70-piece screwdriver and bit set for only $19.99.

So, when you are scratching your head trying to think of a unique, personal and important gift, think automotive and think about Graue for all those service needs and NAPA for the mechanic in your life.
