Going on a 5,000 mile road trip! Any advice?

I appreciate the help everyone. Some of these responses had me rolling haha!

I’ll change all the fluids and plan on getting that belt!

I’ll post some pictures of the trip as well!!

Changing Fluids are in some cases overrated.
A good example is the Radiator Fluid (Antifreeze)
If the PH is withing spec,and there is no visible sign of contamination, then there is absolutely no need to change it.
If the fluid in the Transmission and diff isn't discolored or smelly and is within the specified mileage, the same applied.
The next time you pass or is passed by an 18 wheeler, the fluids in the Tranny and Diff ( if using Synthetic) is change every 500,000 to 750,000 miles as per OEM spec.
Our attention should instead be directed to the "BELTS and HOSES" as they are the ones that will fail before the fluids.

The po-leece

Don't forget AAA

Or since you're so worried, your AARP lol

Got the trans flushed, engine coolant changed, transfer case flushed, oil change. All belts and hoses are in great shape. I leave the 29th! I’ll make sure to post plenty of pics. Thanks again for all the help!

Seems you're heading just a tad bit east of the Mississippi.
Have a good trip, and drive safely.

Currently in New Orleans! Drove from Orange County to Amarillo Texas in one day. Was going around 95-100mph the whole way. Did not help my gas mileage at all lol! Averaged about 8 - 9! Let off the gas now and am getting 13!

From Amarillo to New Orleans on day 2 and got a nice speeding ticket about 30 mins in. 95 in a 75 and it was alleged because he was driving th opposite way and didn’t use a radar gun. Currently having a lawyer fight it for me because it was bs! Will let you guys know how that goes haha.

I have been enjoying New Orleans now for the past 3 days. I don’t think I have ever ate so much in my life. Halloween here is a must, too much fun!

Headed to Alabama tomorrow for my buddies wedding and will be there for about 5 days. After that I will be headed back to California. Not sure exactly what route I’m going to take yet but definitely want to go through Oklahoma and check out the Sooners stadium. I’m a big fan!

Will send another update once I get home. For now enjoy some pics!

Damn you blew right through AZ & NM =) If you go through OK there's some dunes in Waynoka...

Well after about 4,500 miles we have made it safely back home! Was such a great trip and highly recommended doing something like it if you haven’t!
