In the era of online shopping when countless holiday gifts are available at the click of a button, putting in a little extra time and legwork can mean a lot. The Car Care Council offers these thoughtful and practical ideas for gift-givers who want to go beyond a simple mouse click for their family and friends this holiday season.

“We live such busy and stressful lives these days and sometimes simply taking a chore off of someone’s plate can be the most thoughtful gift,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. “The gift of car care will not only let your family and friends check an important task off their list, but it will help keep them safe on the road.”

An oil change and inspection: Regular oil changes are the best way to keep a car running in peak condition, but some drivers find it to be an onerous chore. If this sounds like someone you know, an oil change and inspection may be the perfect gift. Whether you take their car to a trusted professional technician or do it yourself, your family and friends will appreciate the time and effort you put into their gift.

A car wash and detail: Keeping a vehicle clean and detailed helps protect the paint, interior and wheels from harsh weather and damaging chemicals. A busy driver in your life will appreciate you taking the time to have their car professionally cleaned and detailed or doing it yourself.

A roadside emergency kit: For the traditionalist who can’t imagine a gift that isn’t wrapped up and under the tree, the Car Care Council suggests putting together a roadside emergency kit, including items such as jumper cables; emergency flares; a flashlight with batteries; blankets and extra clothes; water and non-perishable snacks; a first aid kit; a portable USB charger; an ice scraper, snow brush and small shovel; and the council’s

Purolator added that it is optimized for vehicles that experience frequent towing, off-roading, and stop-and-go traffic. Additional features include a silicone anti-drainback valve to prevent dry starts, a PuroSEAL gasket for superior leak protection, and a PuroSTEEL casing that withstands extreme pressure. “We are thrilled to introduce the Purolator 20K Premium Oil Filter exclusively at Walmart,” said Daryl Benton, vice president of sales and marketing for the automotive aftermarket with MANN+HUMMEL. “The Purolator 20K represents the next level of filtration technology, delivering long-lasting performance and durability for today’s most demanding drivers.”

Education and perspective came in the form of a panel discussion and production tour led by industry experts who played crucial roles in developing and bringing to market the Purolator 20K. Subject matter experts included Purolator’s lead product engineer and Walmart automotive merchants. “Purolator’s commitment to innovation and quality aligns perfectly with Walmart’s mission to provide customers with great products at an incredible value,” said Scott Bayles, vice president of merchandise – automotive, Walmart US. “The Purolator 20K Premium Oil Filter is a game-changer for drivers looking for long-lasting performance, and we’re proud to offer it only at Walmart.”
      Purolator added that the Purolator 20K and Purolator air filtration will be used on more than 1,000 horsepower Formula Drift cars driven by Odi Bakchis, Dan Burkett, Rome Charpentier and Ryan Tureck for the 2025 season. Those drivers also attended the launch event and challenged guests to a special drift driving experience.
