When you pack, keep in mind you may have to access the spare tire. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nFinally, don\u2019t overload your ride; this can lead to unsafe handling. The maximum load capacity, including people and cargo, is listed in the owner\u2019s manual. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other things to consider<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
For those at home, make sure that someone has a trip itinerary, so people can find you in an emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And if you\u2019re using a navigation system, it\u2019s a good idea to enter destinations ahead of time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, it\u2019s a good idea to carry a spare set of vehicle keys, and if you\u2019re older, your doctor\u2019s phone number and any prescriptions that might be needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
