ORE'S YOUR TICKET TO Perhaps one definition of a young old-timer is someone who recalls those long railroad passenger tickets. On a cross-country trip, a ticket could be several feet in length, with each coupon representing one stop on the journey. Since the automobile now carries about 85 percent of all vacation travelers, it might be a good idea to resurrect the old train ticket to remind the motorist of vital serv- L701111110, 441Maii'b --'41111111.0 4.411110ip. ices. Each ifortion of the "Carefree Car Vacation" ticket above describes a service that will help keep your car in top condition during your vacation. Car Care Council suggests that you use it as a reminder when getting these services performed at your favorite service facility.

Automatic Transmissions Make Driving • Easy and Pleasurable Who Knows Better Than Woman Driver Who Tells Here How to Pamper Them By JODY CARR Other than the self start- er, probably nothing has contributed more to driving pleasure than the automatic transmission. As trouble free as this complicated mechanism is, it is not in- destructible. There are a few things whibh can shorten its life. For exam- ;: : a driver Jody Carr stalls his car at a traffic light, finally gets it running again and, with engine roaring, moves his shift lever to "D". Or on a steep upgrade, he is waiting for a red light to turn green. He uses the gas pedal instead of the brake, allowing the engine to hold him in position. If cars could talk, his would cry! These •are two of the most common abuses, to which automatic transrilis- sions are subjected. But there are more. Haye you ever seen some- one park by giving the car ahead (or behind) a gdod solid nudge to make extra space? If the nudged ear is in "park," a little- gadget inside the transmission can be broken. This happened more than once. Use kour • parking brake instead of "park" whenever there is a possibility of being bumped or pushed by an• - other car. While we're on the sub- ject of "park," NEVER move your shift lever' to "park" while the car ,,is in motion. This can, have the same unfortunate result as being bumped. . . ....... Some .drivers manage to put their cars in reverse while they are going for- ward. Although the auto- matic transmission has a special locking device to prevent this' from happen- ing, who knows if the device, is working? The jar when a wheel sudderily contacts dry sur- face after spinning fast on ice can be-disastrous to a transmission. So can ex- tended periodt of pushing or being pushed. Treat your automatic transmission with respect and the care recommended in your owner's manual, and it will keep shifting for you for years and ye' n: ...
