I'm going on a 8 hour drive in a 2012 equinox for the first time, longest drive before was 2 hours back when I was a newer driver.

The car does not have any smart phone type features like the newer cars, it will connect the phone for calls but that is it, there is a charging port but I'm guessing its usb2 so it won't be all that fast and may not keep up with the phone, I have a battery bank and plenty of cables though, I won't be stopping for those Bluetooth FM cigarette plug things because I'll just being doing this the one time and it doesn't seem useful enough to me.

I am very confident behind the wheel but just curious if anyone has any tips I haven't thought about before.

I don't think I'll get very tired driving but I am known to get a slump of energy a couple hours after lunch but I don't think I'll eat a very big lunch so I may not have much of a slump.

I am driving this car back, I came here in a truck with another driver, something interesting I noticed between trucks vs small cars is that the taller trucks leave you less exhausted and so you can drive longer with an easier time because there is a perceived slower speed of things moving in and out past your field of vision.

Thankyou on advance!
