Anything special I should do to prep the car? Or watch for throughout the trip?

Tips for comfort?

I have an 06 987 with 2000mi.

Pls let me know your long distance experience.

thx
Yup -

I'd get a cushion for my tush and something for my back (tends to sweat on those seats).

I'd pick up around 3 quarts of proper motor oil. Not every place carries the necessary Mobil-1. I'm not saying you're going to need it - but better safe than sorry.

I'd consider possibly putting a bra on the front and side-views for that long of a drive.

If you are taking a bunch of lugguge, you might want to consider installing cargo skins (I don't remember what they are called - they go inside the front and rear trunk) to protect the trunks from lugguge damage.

Valentine radar detector.

Have FUN!
