I drove from San Jose, Ca to Dallas, Tx then back to San Jose last month! (May 19-May28)
At one point, my co-pilot and I drove for about 24hours without a break (w/exception of getting gas) #1 take advantage of those Gas station squeegees... tons of dead bugs all over the front of my Z. disgusting
#2 check your oil level often. I found that during my trip I used about 2 extra quarts of oil.
#3 MP3 player is a must! I only used 3 cd's @ ~100 tracks each
#4 laptop w/DVD + some DVD movies.
#5 Digital Camera!: [ http://icormba.com/Grand/canyon.htm ]
#6 the most important thing! make sure your Car is in excellent condition before you go! do all those things in the Tech section. my Car had 109k when I left... I returned with ~115k
1990 NA 2+2
services done before I left:
power steering hoses replaced (leaking!)
oil change
removed & flushed radiator
replaced the belts & added underdive pulley
(Thanks got rice?!!!!)
O2 sensors
PCV valves (actually done a few months ago)
spark plugs p.s. I stayed in Dallas with my sister (lewisville) for 5 days... no offense, but the highlight of those 5 days was seeing Tony Hawk skate with my little 7 year old nephew. Not much beyond that... I think I only saw 2 Z's the entire 5 days I was there!
I usually see 2+ everyday in SJ.
can you name the truck with 4 wheel drive smells like a steak and seats 35? Canyonero...Canyonero |
