    Road Trip Essentials for Your Car

    • Spare Tire

    Without a spare tire, you will get stranded on the road if anything happens to any of your tires.Before setting off, also check all your tires to ascertain that they are in good condition. As you do this, also check your wheel spanners and hydraulic floor jacks. Replace them if necessary.

    • Roadside Emergency Kit

    Emergency roadside kits are not so expensive. You can get one for as low as $25. A roadside emergency kit usually contains a whistle, warning triangle, reflective vest, window breaker, tire pressure gauge, emergency rain poncho, two light sticks, battery booster cables, and other necessities all in one compact storage bag.

    • Important Documents

    Some of the important documents that you must not leave behind are your license and car registration documents, your car’s manual, and a copy of your car insurance policy.

    Road Trip Essentials for Your Comfortability

    Comfortable people are happy people.If you are not happy, your road trip will not be as memorable as it should be. Highlighted below is the comfort kit that must be included in your road trip packing list.

    • Sunglasses

    Pack this with you sothat you don’t have to squint when the sun comes out. You could also get UV window shade to protect yourself from the scorching sun.

    • Nap Kit

    A blanket will come in handy during your daytime naps. Sleeping bags and travel pillows will further enhance your comfort.

    • Snacks and Drinks

    Snacks are more expensive at gas stations, so bring snacks from home. Don’t forget to include reusable water bottles and travel mugs (preferably one with seal-able lids to prevent spillage) in your packing list.

    • Clothing
