I'm at 10.5k miles, just had my first oil change etc. I will be driving through Canada yukon. Anything I should do to make sure car will make it? Anything I should be concerned about, or should just make it right through lol?.. >.> 4400 miles... Probably drive 500-700 miles a day give or take a few.

 

change the oil before you leave. that's it! good luck!

 

The oil was done like a week ago. I just hit 10k and dealership changed it, so I'm golden!.

 

always check tires before you drive...

 

I would pack a tool kit and some a tire patch kit. And maybe a rifle incase you get stranded!

 

I'm jot gonna lie I don't know how to patch a tire. Shouldn't be too hard though.

I need to read about transporting weapons through Canada, I will have a few gallons of water and a few pouches of chicken and instant foods. A blanket and a pillow. Hand Warner's, incase I travel in winter. I have winter tires and summer so either season is fine.

Nervous though, never done a trip this long in life and there's gravel roads. Any idea to keep paint from being destroyed! Maybe painters tape on front bumper n such? Remove when I get there.

 

For the tire patching just search YouTube for it, it's really easy. Maybe get one of those little compressors you can run from your cigarette lighter. To help protect paint, just do a fresh coat of wax and look into cheap bras or the 3m spray invisible bra, either work very well.

 

I have my entire front end in solargard inivisble shield bra. however, This is a long trip, and i'd like to offer an additional coat of protection on top of it. I'll wax it too. should help some.

 

Then I'd check on a cheap leather or vinyl bra for the trip.

 

There are several folks I know who have really nice paint jobs but go snowboarding every winter; their solution is to plastidip the entire car, or at least the front clip. They peel it off in the summer, hit it with a fresh coat of wax, and Bam! New car again lol
