Great road trips are prepared, not improvised. The checklist we use:
Safety first
- Emergency kit (triangle, vest, first aid) — legally required in most of the EU
- Jump starter (charged!) and tire inflator
- Safety hammer within reach
Comfort
- Seat cushion + lumbar support for the long hours
- Sunshades for parked stops
- Backseat organizer with tablet pocket (kids = peace)
Tech
- Dash cam with GPS (evidence across borders)
- Multi-port charger — one per passenger
- Phone mount + offline maps downloaded
Order
- Trunk organizer so day-bags stay accessible
- Headrest hooks for jackets and snack bags
Gear up in one order: the full Gearyx range.
