road.Even in the most populous areas of this nation, there still remain unspoiled stretches of green field, blue sky and water \u2014 just a few hours from home, Travel through these areas with a light foot on the gas pedal, stopping often to enjoy the view and savor the fresh air.Make your car, not a conveyance to get you from here to there, but a kind of magic carpet to lift you above the humdrum and the state of tension.There is also a way to bring the maximum enjoyment of motoring into everyday driving.And that is by maintaining your car in showroom condition.By doing so, your car can feel like a new car no matter how long you drive it.Drive Better After a Wash For example, there are those who swear that their cars seem to drive better after a wash.While this may be a matter of

front-end alignment and smooth transmission are indispensable to a smooth, enjoyable ride.There is at least one more factor in maximum enjoyment of a car.That is the security of mind in knowing that yours is a safe car.It fs not enough to know your car has just passed vehicle inspection.While passing inspection is a good sign that all basic safety components check out, there are other factors to
