Your Driving and the Road
Driving a Long Distance
Although most long trips today are
made on freeways, there are still many
made on regular highways.
Long-distance driving on freeways and
regular highways is the same
in some
ways. The trip has to be planned and
the vehicle prepared, you drive at
higher-than-city speeds, and there
are
longer turns behind the wheel. You’ll
enjoy your trip more if you and your
vehicle are in good shape. Here are
some tips for a successful long trip.
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 Oldsmobile dealerships all
across North America. They’ll be ready
and willing to help if you need it. Here are
some things you can check
before a trip:

driving?
Are the tires all inflated to
the recommended pressure?

weather outlook along your route?
Should you delay your trip a short
time to avoid a major storm system?

Loading Your Vehicle
Two labels on your vehicle show how
much weight it may properly carry. The
Tire-Loading Information label found on the inside
of the trunlc lid tells you
the proper size, speed rating and
recommended inflation pressures for
the tires on your vehicle. It
also gives
you important information about the
number
of people that can be in your
vehicle and the total weight that you
can carry. This weight is called the
Vehicle Capacity Weight and includes
the weight
of all occupants, cargo, and
all nonfactory-installed options.
The other label is the Certification label,
on the rear edge
of the driver’s door. It
tells you the gross weight capacity
of
your vehicle, ded the GVWR (Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating). The GVWR
includes the weight of the vehicle,
all
occupants, fuel and cargo. Never exceed
the
GVWR for your vehicle, or the
Gross Axle~Weight Rating (GAWR) for
either the front
or rear axle.
And,
if you do have a heavy load, you
should spread it out. Don’t cany

than 167 lbs, (75 kg) in your trunk.
