Your vehicle's engine needs clean air to burn the fuel – and it needs a lot of clean air. In fact, a typical vehicle needs about 216,000 gallons of air for every tank of gas.

At T&A Truck Specialist, Inc in Tampa, we ensure you get the best air quality in your vehicle and explain the process of where this dirty air is going to our area drivers.
