This is from
my seventh ever post on 2+2, and it still applies here.

I've taken some pretty awful road trips before, usually due to lack of preparation. I'm on the east coast, so I'm not sure about specifics of where to stop, but I can give you pretty decent supplies checklist. For a road trip of this magnitude you will need the following:
2 cartons of cigarettes
1 large picnic cooler
1 bag of ice
2 cases beer (domestic, cans)
2 4-packs Red Bull
1 package condoms (optional)
1 functional radar detector
3 bags chips (doritos, fritos)
2 lighters (one backup)
1 portable dvd player
1 cigarette-lighter-adaptor cell phone charger
1 large bottle advil
1 large bottle pepcid complete
