I tend to get asked a lot of the same questions over and over again, and by far, two of the ones that I hear most frequently are: “When do I need to do ____ to my car?” and “Why do I have to replace ____?” This class will answer all your questions about preventative car maintenance, empowering you as a more educated car owner to better protect your investment.

What is the Cost?
Class is sliding scale from $39 to $119 payable via PayPal. This is an effort to accommodate a range of budgets and needs. For more information about the sliding scale model and suggestions for what you should pay, see the Frequently Asked Questions page.
I also have a scholarship fund for folks that can’t afford to take this class. Priority goes to people of color, trans people, and folks with disabilities. If you are in need of a scholarship, please email me.
When and where will this class be held?
The class is held in a private Facebook group on March 15 – 17th. At 9:00 pm EST, I will go live and discuss and teach. You’ll be able to ask questions live. You’ll even be able to go back and re-watch the recorded class videos for three months. This is not a DIY course.
