Regardless of the vehicle you take on your camping trip, you want to be comfortable on the drive. Sure, you may know everything you need to take for a comfortable camping experience, but don’t forget that you may be on the road for a few hours before you reach the campsite. Custom fit window shades can make the ride easier on everyone by blocking the sun on one side of the car. You can use your window shades while you’re parked to keep your car cooler and to protect the interior.
Stay Comfortable and Safe
Getting to your destination using GPS may work fine in the city, but in rural areas, signals can often be spotty. Make sure to include a paper map or take pictures of your navigational directions, just to have a backup. If you do lose your GPS signals, you won’t miss an important exit or turnoff. Pack a first-aid kit with basic supplies. Although you may not need it, you don’t want to be without it if you get a splinter or cut. For your sanity, have some trash bags in your car, too. Get a head start on the cleanup chores by giving your passengers the tools to try to contain the mess.
To keep everyone cozy on the drive, pack extra layers of clothing. It’s a lot easier to put on a fleece sweatshirt than to try to get the temperature right for each person in the car. A travel pillow and eye mask can help anyone who just needs some shut-eye. Don’t forget the sunglasses and chapstick. To save money on drinks and food, pack a cooler with water bottles and snacks. Include a variety of healthy options, nuts, fruit and cheese, as well as some junk food.
Best Car Covers for Road Trip Protection
When you’re on the road, you may be tempted to leave your car cover at home to save space for other supplies. The best car cover for your road trip is one that you can easily put on and take off to make sure it is used. This is why we recommend custom fit car covers made of lightweight material that is durable and sturdy. The exterior of the car cover needs to be waterproof. The lining should be kept clean and dust-free, so always fold up your car cover well to make sure that you aren’t damaging the paint job.
How To Best Protect Your Interior While on The Road
Custom camper covers are a great way to protect the interior when you aren’t driving, but when you’re on the road, you still want to take care of your interior. Use a car shade on the passenger windows to reduce the sun that enters your car. Keep a windshield sun protector on hand for when you park. Use seat covers to protect your seats, as well as keep them cooler in the summer months. Keep a microfiber cloth in the glove box to wipe down dust and dirt.
