enjoy your
trip more if you and your
vehicle
are in good shape. Here are
some.fips for
a successful long trip.

rested.
If you must start when you’re
not fresh-such as after
a day’s work-
don’t plan to

you keep it serviced and maintained, it’s
ready to

experts in Chevrolet dealerships all
across North America. They’ll be ready
and willing to help if you need it. Here
