A method of guiding a vehicle in adjacent swaths across terrain that may slope comprising the steps of: (1) determining the tilt of the vehicle with respect to Earth due to a slope of the terrain; (2) determining the position with respect to Earth of a predetermined location that is fixed relative to the vehicle; and (3) using the tilt and position determinations to provide information for guiding the vehicle to prevent gaps and overlaps between adjacent swaths as the slope changes.
