The Great American Road Trip - a list by kryz

Options for This Page

About this list:

Now that the West Coast temperature's starting to climb to its glorious peak, there is no better time to take a road trip. Whether you've got a destination in mind or are just in it for some soul searching or aimless wandering, save up some gas money, grab some company, and roll down the windows.

NoDoz Maximum Strength Alertness Aid Coated Caplets

First to recommend

Description

Or as I call it, gas station Adderall.
This keeps you UP if you're driving through the night. Each pill is like 5 cups of coffee packed into one, 3 hour burst of alertness. It's great, and like 3 bucks at any gas station.

Sour Punch Straws, Strikin' Strawberry

First to recommend

Description

Sour Punch Straws are a gas station classic. I'm pretty sure almost every gas station has them and they are super sour, delicious, and easy to share with your companions. You'll have a nice sprinkling of sour sugar in the cracks of your car seat too.

Belkin iPod Mobile Cassette Adapter

2 people recommended this item

Description

I've always used this cassette adapter for my iPod since my car has a tape deck. These sell for about $17 and give perfectly good sound quality over your car speakers. The ideal iPod adapter for road trips, since they're inexpensive and easy to use. Paired with an iPod car charger that plugs into the cigarette lighter, you've got an unbeatable duo.

Description

I get it, they're ugly slippers/socks, but they're darn comfy on the road. And since they've got leather soles, I suppose that means they're safe to wear outside the car, but I dunno, you might want to throw on some flip flops for gas stations.

Red Bull Sugar Free Energy Drink

First to recommend

Description

So I don't drink soda, but I'll drink Sugar Free Red Bull. Why? I don't know. Maybe it's because if I'm gonna be drinking something carbonated and full of chemicals, I'd rather it make me a hyperactive maniac than do nothing at all. I mean, there are some benefits to this trade-off.

Willow Ranch BBQ Sauce

First to recommend

Description

If you're ever driving the lovely Interstate 5 between Northern and Southern California, you'll be lucky enough to drive through the quaint town of Buttonwillow, CA. Located near my other favorite place ever, Bakersfield, Buttonwillow, CA is home to THE best barbecue I have ever had. My family orders their bbq sauce online. By the case.

Willow Ranch is very visible from the freeway, and has a parking lot full of pickup trucks. If you're a girl, don't go in there without a male escort. I'm serious.
