Advice for roadtrip

[stumcewing]

So tomorrow is my first ever road-trip in the CR-Z and, dare I say, my first ever North American road-trip. The furthest that I've driven for work in it is a 400 mile round trip, this is going to be close to 2400 miles in 7 days (NYC to Halifax, Nova Scotia, travelling around whilst there, and then back again).

I've already taken the obvious things into account (check levels, brakes, tires etc) but is there anything CR-Z specific that I should take into account?

you're forgetting the most important thing....HAVE FUN DRIVING IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol, I certainly plan to. We're leaving at around 8pm tomorrow night and driving through the night. I've been up since 8am this morning and can't go to sleep until maybe 7-8 am tomorrow morning so that I have plenty of energy for the drive. Been trying to get my wife to drive the 'Z too as she has only ever driven SUV's (she owns a 2011 Element). Very much looking forward to it

Wow I knew that I was forgetting something. Thanks! It would be cheap at twice the price.

Don't forget lots of windshield fluids... Maybe rain-x to keep the bugs from sticking.

Make sure to pack plenty of music on a thumb drive or use your phone...

Rain-X that was what I've been meaning to do. Thank you!

RedBull, lots and lots of RedBull, whenever we do the agricultural shows all your doing it either driving, walking or trying to sell something so you end up living off the stuff, last time I racked up 1500 miles and a total of 6 hours in traffic jams in three days.
