The spring travel season is finally here. It’s finally time to dust off the winter blues and hit the road for adventure. Have any fun family road trips planned? I have to admit, as I child, I despised family road trips. It wasn’t the company that was irritating to me, but rather the drive itself.

5 Tips To Get Your Car Road Trip Ready

Tune Her Up! 

Before you head out on the highway, don’t forget to schedule a tune-up. Regularly scheduled oil changes and tune-ups will keep your car running like new. Mobil 1™ Extended Performance synthetic oil keeps your engine running like new and provides protection for up to 15,000 miles between oil changes. Consider scheduling an appointment at Walmart’s Auto Care Center for an oil change. If you are a “do it your selfer”, Walmart has a great selection of Mobil 1™ motor oil in the automotive section. You can use the Oil Selector tool on Walmart.com to determine what type of oil you will need for your car.

Mobil 1™ synthetic oil protects more than just your engine. It meets or exceeds the requirements of the industry’s toughest standards and outperforms conventional oils. Fewer oil changes reduce oil consumption and less waste oil.  If you changed your car’s oil yourself, be sure to bring the used oil to Walmart for proper recycling.

It doesn’t have to be fancy, but an emergency kit keeps you prepared just in case. You never know when you may need it. Items such as blankets, flashlights, batteries, rags, flares, jumper cables, tools to change a tire and a first-aid kit and even an extra portable cell phone battery is great to include in your kit.

Check Tires!

Before heading out on the high way, make sure your tire pressure is where it should be. You can locate tire pressure numbers in your drivers’ manual, on a sticker inside the driver’s side door, or on the tires themselves.

Check Your Battery!

Have your battery checked during your tune-up so when you set out for adventure, you won’t have issues. Summer heat can be be draining on your car battery.

Don’t Go Paperless!

While we all love to rely on the convenience of modern technology, always carry an atlas or paper map in your car. Sounds archaic, but you never know if your phone will either stop working or be out of signal during your travels. However, the tried and true map or road atlas always does the job.
