El Paso sees about 117 days a year at 90°F or hotter, and 26 of them reach 100°F. Heat wears a battery out faster than cold does, so a battery that seems fine in spring can quit in August. Get it tested once it is three years old. Heat also works the AC, the cooling fan and the coolant hard, and those jobs pile up in the first hot weeks of the year.

It freezes on about 42 nights a year here. Not many, but the first cold snap is when a weak battery shows itself, so test it in the fall.

Only about 9 inches of rain fall in a year, so it is sun, not water, that ages a car here. Rubber parts, wiper blades and dashboards crack sooner.

The average commute in El Paso is 23 minutes each way, and 75% of workers drive there alone.
