Owning a Car in North Salt Lake
Summers here bring about 41 days at 90°F or hotter. That is enough to finish off a tired battery or a weak AC compressor, so get both checked in spring rather than on the first hot day.
Lows drop to freezing on about 118 nights a year. Cold is when a weak battery finally fails, because a cold engine takes more power to turn over. North Salt Lake averages 52 inches of snow, and road salt eats brake lines, exhaust and the underside of the car. Rinse the underbody through the winter and have the brake lines looked at whenever the car is up on a lift.
The average commute in North Salt Lake is 20 minutes each way, and 71% of workers drive there alone.
