Am I forgetting anything specific to driving a C5 long distance? The car is tip-top and ready to GO!

A bunch of quarters, so you can spray it down after you finish a day of driving...I can't stand for my car to be dirty, so I would spray it down and then use my waterless car wash on it.
A quart of Mobil 1 <- I second that vote too.
I did a 3500 mile road trip and it was AWESOME, these cars of ours are outstanding distance running cars!
Have fun, take pictures and have a safe trip.

Or Allstate Motor Club (Deluxe Plan) 1-800-347-8880. I've had it for quite a while and have actually saved money some years.
