1. Match the amount of time you have with the distance you want to drive.
2. Pick out your stay places on a map and check for facilities in the locations you desire.
3. Make reservations.
4. Get your vehicle checked out before getting on the road, including the spare tire. Make sure you have the equipment for changing a flat, as well as extra oil and water. Trips that take you down long back roads may not have cell service, so prepare a solid emergency kit in case you get stuck.
5. Pack a cooler.
6. Carry a little cash.Some gas stations and stores in remote locations only deal in cash or can be prone to having their card machines out of service.
7. Load your vehicle safely. Do not over-pack or tie it down with equipment it’s not designed to carry.
