Road Trip Essentials

Summer is official road trip season, which means you’ll want to stop by our car detail shop on Mira Mesa Blvd. to make sure your car is looking its best before you hit the road.
Sure, good music and good snacks are essentials, but there are a few other things you’ll want to bring along to make the most of your road trip:
• An A/C adapter for your laptop (available for under $30). This might be a good investment if you want to watch movies, play solitaire or even edit photos (so you can post on Facebook mid-trip!) on the road.

• A portable GPS. A portable GPS can help you find your next road stop and satisfy your food cravings while on the road. Plus, an old school map might be outdated and getting lost is not fun.

• Speaking of food, get access to eateries of all types using the mobile Yelp app on your cell phone browser. Craving Mexican food? Find the closest spot serving up burritos. Have a sweet tooth? Find the nearest ice cream shop.

• Think beyond music. Even if you create the ultimate summer playlist, you will get tired of your music. I promise. Add some podcasts, audiobooks and comedy tracks into the mix to combat boredom. You can thank us later.
