Honestly... I have never driven further than 500 miles on a trip.
Next week, I will be driving from New Jersey to Florida with the Elise I hope to purchase (provided everything is agreeable when I get there). I plan on breaking this up into two days of travel. Since I will be traveling from mid-30's temps to mid-60's temps, and have limited cargo room (the Elise's trunk is about 1/6th the size of the 914's rear trunk), space and weight need to be conserved... Here is what I am thinking of bringing.... Cell Phone, Charger, and Ear piece Radar detector (and a list of the states they are illegal in) PDA/GPS and accessories Cigarette lighter splitter Digital camera Music preloaded on to flash card (car's radio has SD memory slot! cool!) Ear plugs Small towel Hat Sunscreen Sunglasses Lotus Club membership card AAA card Cash Car already has a tool kit in it Leather jacket Jeans Shoes T-shirts (two) Pullover Undies Socks toiletries Printouts of… Lotus dealerships Hotel Mapquest maps Sales agreement Directions to Mile's place Aluminum foil for my head. What else? |

If you like Italian pastry, stop at Canca D'oro (sp?) on Stuyvesant (sp? again) Ave in Union, NJ. The best Canolis you'll find. Other things for the long trip (and I think you are overpacking); 1) polar fleece is good for travel - keeps moisture away. 2) cigars to celebrate your purchase. 3) condoms (no comment- lol). 4) repost your trip and ask for a contact list for folks along your route. Have fun. |
