Default Preparing for a small road trip

Hey all,

I am going to be making the drive from Seattle to Los Angeles next month, and I haven't made it final yet, but I think I am going to put the miles on my 1993 LS400.

I was wondering if anyone has any tips for me, things they wish they would have done/taken care of before they left on a road trip with their LS400.

(Beyond obvious things as oil change, clean air filter)

Thanks, take care,

double check all fluids, make sure u have no leaks, check if ur tires are in proper thread range and properly inflated. make sure u have a basic tool set in your trunk, mini air compressor, a good spare rim/tire andddd blue painters tape on the front of your car for bug/rock chip protection lol.

good music, good tires, good beverages in a cold cooler, good gas, good oil and you'll be fine.
