Road Trip!

We've been getting calls all week from families that are considering a StowAway2 as they gear up for spring break and summer travel season. So we did some googling and came across a few articles on About.com for all you travellers out there.

Here's one about Planning the Summer Road Trip... lots of common sense tips and links to helpful sites like Free Trip.Com and Roadfood.com.

Another one, How to Prepare Your Car For Vacation, was particularly amusing. A car mechanic writes,

"I had a customer come into the shop 30 minutes before closing on a Saturday afternoon with the car packed to the roof rack with luggage, camping gear and a wife and three kids. He wanted a tune-up, oil and filter change and front brakes replaced. And as soon as we were done, he was leaving for Colorado. The trip was delayed until the following Monday afternoon when we were finished with all the work."

Somebody needed a StowAway2!
