(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) Sounds like Qarl is getting ready for a month long excursion. When I purchased my wife's cars out of state I packed a one way ticket to the Traverse city, Mi. airport, money and cell phone. Drove straight home only stopping for gas, and drive through.
I did the same thing years earlier when I bought a car in Tampa.
Qarl you are over prepared when you packed the fix a flat. you may as well bring the craftmans rolling tool chest. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Hey... I was a Boyscout... be prepared!

I always just over-anal-yze things. I'm probably good with just a toothbrush, toothpaste and some cash.

But I want to have fun on the trip too!

Regards,

Karl.. err... Qarl

Bring extra cash, you never know where you might be held for ransom... and you might need extra cash.

I checked with the local Travel Beaureaeu... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif) uhh...... they said, "Yes, just make sure your friend brings lots of cash.".

There has been a cash shortage here, the local economy depends on cash.. bring tons.

I almost forgot to mention there is one more thing missing from your must pack list.
MEEEEEEE, you will need a passenger and navigator. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Karl,

I don't get to post much these days -- but I'm glad to hear your Elise is nearly here!

I don't have much additional to offer -- earlier folk have given lots of suggestions of various((IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)) quality -- my SO and I brought our /6 down from Vancouver, BC, to San Jose -- it was two middling length days (8hrs each iirc) -- and we had to do a customs visit crossing the border.

Cell phone, Visa, AAA, clothes and a feeling for adventure. Yee haw.

You'll be fine. It's a new car. What could possibly go wrong.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

I know you are doing the GPS but an old fashion road atlas is worth its weight in gold if you need to take a deviation from your planned route. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif)

Packed! Everything in one small duffel bag.

I started burning CDs and said fuck it. I bought an XM receiver for $94 at Walmart and added it to my wife's existing subscription. I like the dirty comedy channel. Makes trips go by FAST.

The car is getting Starshield (protective paint film) applied tomorrow and I get the car Thursday morning. The cars are susceptible to small rocks and crap dinging the paint (especially on the rockers near the rear wheel well). The film protects the paint, is nearly invisible, and is less costly to replace then to repaint!

Tomorrow night... no sleep!!!!!

I will try and check in at the hotel (provided they have wireless).

Thanks everybody for their feedback.

OH... and I forgot ONE MORE THING for the list... my accordion. I can't go anywhere without my accordion.... ha ha (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)
