MEDFORD SHELL DEALERS 0E-1UNK A MYTH ABOUT CAR CARE
It's a myth that you should let some air out of
your tires when traveling on a hot day
Today's tires are built to take the extra
pressure that builds up during hot weath
er driving. So, don't deflate them on hot
days or you may lind them very low
when they cool off. Do get your Shell
dealer to tlicxk your tires carefully before
you start a trip. Proper pressure will de
crease chances of tire trouble and help
your tires last longer.
.' That's the real lowdown. Youcan count
nn your local Shell dealer for straight
facts and honest work. See him regularly.
