GMC 1998 Yukon - Before Leaving on a Long Trip

When you want to leave the freeway, move to the proper
lane well
in advance. If you miss your exit, do not,
under any circumstances. stop and back
up. Drive on to
the next
exit.
The exit ramp can be curved, sonletimes quite sharply.
The exit speed is usually posted.
Reduce your speed according to your speedometer, not
to your sense of motion. After driving
for any distance
at highe.r speeds, you may tend to
think you are going
slower than you actually are.
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 journey. 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 GM
dealerships all across North America. They'll be ready
and willing
to help if you need it.
