You definitely need to make sure that you have roadside essentials with you just in case of an emergency. You never know what might happen when you are on that family road trip. You also will want to check out some key parts on your car to make sure that they are in good working order, such as your radiator.
The other super important thing is to top of your fluids. These fluids include things like brake, automatic transmission, power steering, windshield washer and coolant. Making sure everything is in tip top shape will help make your trip go a lot more smoothly.
