We all know how it can be a bit dreadful to be stuck in a compact car for hours on end. Get excited because we've got great tips to consider on your next journey. Planning is key! We cover all things road trips.


Thousands of miles left unridden. Let us get you ready to take that road trip you've been planning. Get packed and read up because we have tons to get into.


Snacks


Food is essential, but water is important too. Make sure you stay hydrated with lots of water on board .


Chewing gum should definitely be part of your snack pack. It's proven to keep you alert since the constant chewing is keeping your blood circulating.


Keeping a cooler is also big help, there is one place everyone knows to get the snack and drinks! Healthy snacks like dried fruit and nuts go a long way.


Car Health


Most people just expect their car to always be reliable. When we take car of our cars, they take care of us. Make sure your oil is changed, tires have the correct air pressure and the car stays gassed up!


Try not to go below a quarter tank. Plan out where you will stop along the way for gas. You don't want to be stuck not in the middle of no where with a gross gas station bathroom for a restroom break.


Entertainment


Music is a must! The best way to accommodate everyone can sometimes result in everyone using their own head phones. Therefore, having the co pilot and driver on the same page for some good tunes!


Car games like the "license plate game" are a great way to pass the time when the days feel endless. It also ant hurt to get some type of car DVD player or an iPad ready for backseat drivers to enjoy movies to help the time go by.


Breaks


Plan your stops! There could be beautiful scenery to pass through. Research great food that is along the way. Food stops are key because no one likes a car full of cranky hungry people!


Plan for bathroom breaks in different rest stops off the highway. Line up where and when you want to get some steps in like stopping at parks or museums to stretch your legs. Share the ride! Switching out the driver for a safe ride is always a must!
