With so many amazing places to explore throughout the country, the chance to see something new is just a car ride away. Although road trips may be a more practical option than booking a flight and navigating an airport, spending hours in the car with your family is a commitment that involves a lot of coordinating, especially when children are along for the ride. However, road trips offer valuable family time and a chance to see places on the way to your destination that you would not be able to enjoy from the air. With a little preparation, the right packing list, and an equipped vehicle, you will become a family road trip pro in no time!

Before embarking on your family road trip, several preparations need to be made. First things first, ensure your vehicle has a full tank of gas to ensure you can get as far as possible on the first stretch of your trip. Doing your due diligence by mapping out fuel stops and bathroom breaks will ensure quick travel time and less frequent stops. Another important step to take before hitting the road is to have music or podcasts prepared. Take this time to listen to your favorite music, listen to an audiobook, or learn something new! Prepared playlists of your favorite songs and podcasts will prevent phone usage while driving and encourage more time to look at the scenery around you.
Once you’re ready to hit the road, it is important to ensure you have the items on hand that you and your passengers need while traveling. From entertainment to food and safety essentials, we’ve put together a list to get you started:
In addition to your family’s necessities, it’s just as important to have your vehicle prepared for your travels. It can be overwhelming when preparing your vehicle for a trip, but our available accessories make it easier and can even give you more room for luggage or other cargo. Here are a few of our favorite available Ford Accessories to ensure your vehicle is fully equipped for your upcoming trip:
While getting organized and packing beforehand can assist in setting your trip up for success, it’s even more important to stay organized throughout your trip. As people use items, eat snacks, and get in and out of the vehicle at stops along the way, it can be easy for things to become misplaced or messy. Taking time to reset the areas in your car periodically can help ensure nothing gets too out of hand. Additionally, you could create organization systems for certain items to keep them separated throughout your trip. Compartmentalizing similar items into one section of your car may be helpful. For instance, keep all your first aid and cleaning supplies together in one place. This will be separate from both the food and drinks and other items like jumper cables or car maintenance equipment. It is also important not to overpack your vehicle and only bring what your family will need.
