Before Leaving on a Long Trip
Make sure you’re ready. Try to be well rested.
If
you
must start when you’re not fresh
--
such as after a day’s
work
--
don’t plan
to
make too many miles that first part
of the joumey. Wear comfortable clothing and shoes you
can easily drive in.
Is
your vehicle ready for a long trip?
If
you keep it
serviced and maintained, it’s ready to go.
If
it needs
service, have it done before starting out. Of course,
you’ll. find experienced and able- service experts in
Buick dealerships all across
North
America. They’ll be
ready and willing to .help
if
you need
it.
