Hey all, so I'm planning on driving my baby from LA to Vegas this weekend. I didn't think anything of it cause shes been running fine, but my friend's concern (13 year old car, random mishaps, etc.) got me all paranoid.
The longest ive driven was from from LA to the Bay (about 360 miles) 3 years ago. Nowadays the longest she's gone is LA to Riverside (60 miles). Is there anything I should check out before taking my car on a 5+ hr (traffic) drive? Besides tires/oil/coolant. I don't want to break down somewhere in Death Valley, miles away from a casino! |

i had a 16year old ST185 Carlos Sainz to Germany last year with about 14 other 185s and 205s to watch the WRC and then do 4 laps of the Nurburging, whilst there not 1 had any failures so i think that speaks for itself, we all gave the cars a good roasting on the autobahns many of us hitting well over 150mph, we had faith in our cars that weekend
