wash/wax before leaving. check tire pressure. bring a pint of oil, octane booster (due to a few stops possibly having no premium or unposted octane premium like in my case), bring spare tire pump incase you need to top up, check your spare.

edit ~ apply rain-x before, bring some if you feel the need. bring a bottle of QD and a few MF to wipe your windshield down during your pit stops.

bring the car outlet so you can charge on the go if required and anything else you may need.

and lastly make sure your wife is good with a gps... i did a lot of doubling back due to break down in communications
Don't think that is going to be necessary in california lol

it also makes removing bugs a lot easier especially after being caked on. i usually designate a specific MF towel to windshield wiping. spray a bit of the fluid then wipe away
