Keep your Vehicle Longer you Planned
You’ll want to learn about innovative ways to save on predictable vehicle maintenance expenses. Shares of auto parts retailers are rising on reports of better-than-expected earnings. Auto parts retailer AutoZone and others continue to flirt with all time highs due in part to consumers pushing back the purchase of new vehicles in favor of maintaining those already in their driveways, or purchasing Certified Pre-Owned.
Nitrogen Pays for Itself
Replacing tires is inevitable as vehicles age, but proper care can save a lot of money and now there’s a way to get extra miles on the tires you have. “Replacing the air in your tires with Nitrogen will extend tire life, improve tire performance, and decrease gas consumption. Oxygen is corrosive and causes rubber to oxidize. When rubber oxides tires lose elasticity and will not support the weight of the vehicle or handle the force the tire must bear in cornering” according to Scott Orsini, General Manager of Executive Jeep Nissan in North Haven, CT.
Proven Effective More than 10 Years
“Nitrogen tire inflation has been used with great success in Europe, Asia, and South America for nearly a decade” says Jason Secor, Service Manager at Liberty Mazda in Hartford adding “it’s low-cost quickly pays dividends because Nitrogen inflation helps maximize fuel efficiency.” Jim Keiser of Wood County Bandag in Bowling Green, Ohio conducted testing that concludes “Nitrogen will give you approximately one tenth of a mile per gallon more than air,” and filling the tire with Nitrogen increases the longevity, as well as the integrity of the inner tire. You can calculate your own dollar savings by entering the number of miles you drive, your tire replacement cost, the current price of fuel and your vehicle’s miles per gallon.
What are other experts saying about Nitrogen tire inflation?
Eliminates False Tire Pressure Monitoring System Alarms
Todd Dibiasi, Service Manager at Executive Honda in Wallingford says, “False Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) alarms triggered by under-inflation are significantly reduced when tires are filled with Nitrogen.” Perry Guttman, Service Manager at Liberty Honda in Hartford adds “my customers are so happy with Nitrogen that I’ve thought about replacing air with Nitrogen on vehicles as soon as they arrive on the lot. Since every vehicle is already checked for proper tire pressure during our safety inspection it’s easy to do and our customers will benefit.”
Lifetime Nitrogen Policy at No Additional Cost
Acura by Executive’s Service Manager Gary Gargano notes, “Nitrogen is an environmentally friendly alternative to compressed air. Filling tires with this gas decreases energy demands and reduces green house gases.” Supporting the Executive Auto Group’s eco-friendly approach to vehicle maintenance, Gary explains his Lifetime Nitrogen policy; “if you get a flat, we replace your Nitrogen for free and we fill the replacement tires you buy from us at no charge.”
Executive Auto Group Dealers the Only Place to Get Nitrogen?

Nitrogen providers can be found at Get Nitrogen” Greg DeFazio, Service Manager at Executive KIA points out. Gregg added that Jay Leno, who’s very passionate about his vehicles and the environment uses Nitrogen in his vehicles and explains many reasons why in this video.
Nitrogen Used in Trucking Industry
Al Ford, Service Manager at Executive Dodge Jeep in Wallingford a commercial vehicle expert states, “the benefits of proper tire inflation are well documented and proof supporting Nitrogen inflation is provided by tire manufacturers in the trucking industry. Goodyear, Michelin, Bridgestone and other tire manufacturers confirm that Nitrogen filled tires retain pressure longer than those filled with compressed air,” adding, “Goodyear’s Radial Truck Tire and Retread Service Manual states that under-inflated tires can reduce tread mileage by 8% causing a related decrease in fuel economy of 2.5%.”
Extend Tire Wear and Increase Fuel Efficiency & Vehicle Safety
Tom Sampiere, Service Manager at Executive Auto Center Pre-Owned Super Store in Wallingford wants his customers to know that “for each 10 psi that a tire is under–inflated fuel efficiency is reduced by 1%.” The benefits of Nitrogen are summed up by Frank Gargano, Service Manager at Executive Nissan in North Haven “Nitrogen maintains proper tire inflation pressure longer, provides better vehicle handling and greater safety, extends tire life by reducing wear rates, irregular tread wear and durability of tire casings, improves fuel economy, is environmentally friendly, and is unquestionably cost effective.”
