I'm sure he meant one of those red gas tanks to have emergency gas just in case. I did the same. You never know what could happen lol

The red gas tanks that look like water jugs. I also have the gas buddy app to help me find gas stations.

I wouldn't worry too much on gas for your drive because you'll go by plenty of gas stations. I filled up every time I was a little less than half just to be safe. I have a 350 and I spent $468 on gas. A lot less than expected and the gas prices through the middle of the country were so low it blew my mind lol

I like how my car will be less common there. I also hope gas is cheaper there!

Is your IS RWD or AWD? Did you drive there during winter?
