I'm taking a quick road trip with a good friend of mine in the beginning
of June. We're drive from San Diego, CA, to the Grand Canyon. Leaving on
a Friday afternoon, probably around 4PM pst. Driving non-stop to our
destination. We'll spend most of Saturday at the canyon, and then
drive back non-stop, unless we're both too tired, in which case we'll get
a hotel room for a few hours.
So, help me design the vehicle load-out for this trip. We'll be driving
her late-model Ford Taurus sedan.
Here is what I have so far.
-Ruger Service Six, loaded with .38 Special +p hollow points of some
sort. This gun will ride in the glove box as soon as we hit the AZ
border. Obviously, in the caring nanny-state of California, we are not
allowed to be armed while driving.
-Some other gun, probably a 9mm Glock, or something along those lines, which I've yet to purchase, will ride on my hip, openly, throughout the trip. (Again, once we hit AZ.)
-A few road flares
-One gallon emergency water
-One gallon coolant
-A few MREs
-Basic first aid kit
-Cell phones and car chargers
-One blanket
-Flash light, extra batteries
-Matches, lighter
-motor oil
-transmission fluid
-basic toolkit
-My battery powered CB radio
-Advil
What am I missing to be well prepared for two days of driving, mostly at
night?
