What are some good things to bring with on a road trip (Where you stay at the destination for a bit then come back)?
So far i've got...

power inverter
Laptop - including S video, power cables, battery
Ipod - including usb, firewire cables, wall power adapter
Ipod radio donger thing
Cellphone - car charger, wall charger
mini fridge for the car (runs off power inverter w/ laptop)
Camera + batteries
clothes (shirts, shorts, pants, jacket, hats, socks)
sunglasses
and money

any others? :-D

 

tools!!!!!!! spare belts for your alt AC and power steering.. aslo duckt tape JB weld and plastic ties.. lol

you never know......

 

i agree with ice there, also one of those jumpstart boxes incase all those electrical goodies drain the battery

 

oh good ones! I completely forgot about duct tape and tools man that would have been bad...! (the rest are good too, those just popped out as a DUH HOW COULD YOU FORGET US to me though hahaha)

 

uh long road trip ? 1000 miles plus? make sure to keep a quart of good motor oil.. some awsome cds to listen tooo and water to drink ! oh yea ! POWER BARS !!! and when it gets late.. " NO DOSE " PILLS and no not illegal drugs.. !

 

Road trip requires three things:
1) Reliable Vehicle
2) Music
3) Red Bull, Red Bull, Red Bull

A 4th option is a good passenger. When I say good, I mean someone who doesn't whine.

 

dont forget to fill up the gas tank BEFORE ya leave, and watch the guage, ive seen so many people run out.

 

Or sleep.

My girlfriend is out in a matter of minutes of getting on the highway. Its great for the first 3-4 hours. After that I need someone but myself and classic rock for entertainment. Theres only so much Rush Limbaugh(sp?) one can take.

 

hahaha, well i've got a good passanger, but most likely I'm going to be the sleeping kid.
Also the quart of oil is a good good idea! it's going to be about 1200 miles so that's probably a good thing to carry with.
Also 50% of the minifridge has been claimed by Energy Drinks wooo
And set with darn near 7000 songs to listen to, hopefully I won't get bored of the Musicccc

I'm crossing my fingers on the reliable car part. My friend and I are taking his Audi 200 Quattro there and back since it has more room and gets the same gas mileage as my 280ZX. Sadly neither of the cars have A/C so we're going to travel at night. (I feel like I'm apart of some war movie everytime I say that...traveling at night...)
anyways, thanks for all the suggestions. Definately very good ideas that need to be on the list for any trip!

 

when I am on a long road trip I notice I always fall asleep with the pasenger. I must be a better driver when I am asleep, cus I havn't crashed yet and I havn't woke myself up swerving. I did however wake up one time careening down an exit I didn't want to take in middle of downtown Houston. Yea we are talking 4 lane Highways. I am still alive with no acidents under these conditions.

 

Its called Redbull man And if that dont do the trick, you can get better stuff in crystaline form

 

if she wines...theres ways to keep her mouth occupied and yourself awake

 

get a variety of energy drinks. when mixed they work better lol! i drank a monster XXL amped tall and a red bull and was up to like 5:30 and coulda kept goin but i knew i needed to sleep. however the kidneys.......and 3 hours later you best be near some bathroom exits, or be good at peein in a bottle and driving,cuase its gonna come.
