wat are sum of the things you do to prep yourself and your car for long distance driving?

You could let your car relax in Chattanooga for a little while on your way.

What city in GA?


Change oil and filter.
Check tire tread and pressure.

BIG insulated cup of coffee, tunes, good night sleep. The key is to stay alert and not get too comfortable. I used to drive 7 hours one way to work on Sunday night, 7 hours back Thursday night. I also like an "herbal" pick me up, but that's just me. You might enjoy the added zip of a 6 hour energy drink.

If you come through Central OH, let me know!

about the tires.. well i have my stock wheels on right now and they seem to handle ok on snow but they look old(cracked on the walls but its nothing bad). ive had good luck with tires like these b4 but im not plannin on takin them on a 12hr trip(havin a flat in a southern state is not on my list of ways to die)

Rebuild your motor and drive cross country.
