Why a change in lifestyle doesn’t necessarily mean a change of car

How many cars have you owned? In an average car’s lifetime, it is estimated that it will have 4 owners.  People change their cars for a variety of reasons. For many a change in their lifestyle needs is a key reason for a change in car. But as much as we love to browse in a car dealership, sometimes lifestyle changes mean that disposable income is reduced. We detail 2 practical and affordable Travall car accessories that can help your existing car adapt with your lifestyle needs, so you may not need to change your vehicle as frequently.

When you have a new addition to the family

Whether you have a baby on the way or are about to add a four-legged friend to the family it is likely that your car requirements will need to adjust.  If you already have a small hatchback, you don’t necessarily need to change to a much larger vehicle.  The simple addition of a vehicle-specific barrier allows you to maximize the trunk space, so you’ll have no problems transporting a dog. The barrier also adds a layer of protection between the trunk and the passenger cabin, which is particularly helpful if you have an infant in a rear-facing car seat. 

When you take up a new outdoor activity

There are plenty of outdoor activities that require equipment. A lot of equipment. So if you’ve recently got into playing golf, camping or fishing, you’ll know exactly what I mean.  Adding a vehicle-specific barrier allows you to securely transport your gear, maximizing the trunk space and reducing load shift at the same time. With some models of the Travall Guard you can also lower the back seat to accommodate longer items such as golf bags.

When you start your own business

Sometimes the initial set up costs of starting your own business mean that adding a new business-specific vehicle isn’t financially feasible.  So if you already own a hatchback or a wagon, the simple addition of a barrier can work well. Keep your work tools or other business-related equipment securely separated from the passenger cabin. Adding a vehicle-specific barrier plus a trunk divider is an even better option so that you can separate your work gear from your personal gear too.
