I’m preparing to do this again. Except this time, it is with a ’07 Honda Accord 2.4 slushbox with 220 000KM! I wish I was driving my BRZ instead.
I spent a lot of time prepping the car. Trans fluid, knock sensor, coolant, brake fluid, motor oil/filter, serpentine belt, new rubber, spark plugs, new LED headlights, etc etc. Driving a 13 year old car across the country is very different than driving a newer vintage car, even though I do try to work very hard to keep her in tiptop shape. I also subscribed to CAA for the first time, just in case.
Due to the pandemic, I won’t be able to stop and sight see as much this time. My goal is to just drive as much as I can to reach my destination, and self isolate for 14 days before I can finally see my nephew! I hope he doesn’t cry when I finally meet him for the first time in real life…
