As a previous police department employee I would recommend not storing suitcases in the car if they are visible. Thieves target these vehicles to steal property from. Tourist sites and hotel parking lots are places they target also. Even or especially if you cover the items
Hi Chris! I vote for OC Traveling Princess. Great tips! I drove across country from Los Angeles to Northern New Jersey. I didn't consider time zone changes and starting earlier so I wasn't driving at night which are 2 of your tips. Love the live streams! Hope to catch the one on Monday.
excellent video! i have to drive to scottsdale az friday morning....will definitely schedule drive out time on google map to avoid rush hour traffic on the 91....thanks for the tips
My wife and I always use Airbnb’s on long road trips (Anchorage- Orange County e.g.) unless they are not available in some towns. You feel safer leaving suitcases in the car overnight, the motels. We did a trip to Yellowstone from OC as well we did use some Motels in remote locations where crime rates are very low as well.
Hi Chris. Enjoyed the latest video on the Princess' channel. Great tips that we all can use. I try to be more flexible now when I take a road trip. You never know what you make interest you along the way that you didn't plan for. i'm not sure you covered this, but travelling with someone that you can get along with can help on a long road trip. Being in a car for several hours could take a toll on everyone. My suggestion is OC Princess Adventures.Thanks for sharing and take care.
driving across country, long day, lotsa mileage, 4 days. the first part of my 2+ month/10k miles summer road trip west bound and up loaded up and trucking. Alway make the stop a triple threat: gas, food and liquid and solid waste removal. its a 30 min lost every time you stop. this is when ima by myself, for the most part, although I moved my bro across the country. 3 800+ days and a 500 mile day ( shorten by bad weather).
Driving at dusk or night can be scary, I was once many years ago on a road trip through the Mid west, and wound up in a suburban neighborhood I started seeing Witches, Ghosts ,Monsters, Vampires, Mummies ,and other weird things. I told my girlfriend to lock the car doors."Why",she asked. I told her. she said,"Silly ,it's Halloween" I felt like an idiot and fool.
Hey! My video suggestion became a live stream!

I used street view to look at the major junctions so I was a bit more familiar with the layouts.

Thank you for the great tips
Glad they helped!
Great tips! I love the tips about time zones and google feature "depart by". Thank you!
My pleasure Donna!
Always stay at hotels with free breakfast. So convenient and gets us back on the road quickly. A must when traveling with kids!
Totally agree! Free breakfast is a lifesaver.

You need division of labor.
Ideally you have a playlist / directions person and a snacks person.
Good idea!
I used to drive 12. to 15 hours
now 8 is enough wear sun glasses if it's sunny out
Great tip on sunglasses!
4:42 In the continental US, you’re never further that 115 miles from a McDonald’s
Florida to California, I drove 15 hours a day! No time for fun! 🙄
Oof!
About to do VA to LA, Cali. Any tips on places to stay? Or stay away from?
Quarters and pennie’s?
Dang. I used to drive 15 hours a day on road trips. Course, that was back in the ‘90s. My friend and I did New Orleans to San Diego in 48 hours.
That's a long drive!
