finally taking a road trip in the svx

i have some family attend to in ackworth ga "my sisters new baby" i will be leaving sat morning november 3rd spend 2-3 days with her, then head to the mountains, cherokee nc area or maybe to the dragons tail, mon and tuesday

if any one is along those areas let me know if you like to meet up,

this is the first time i have really had time to take the svx on a road trip, and kinda excited and scared at the same time,

i was thinking of blue taping the front bumper and such to keep the nics off ot it, you guys suggest bringing anything or do anything to prepare besides the normall stuff?

Funny, my sister in law lives in ackworth. Would make sure to have good windshield wipers. It rains a lot in the mountains this time of year.
Otherwise, im sure it will be a great trip. That is what the SVX was built for.

Classic SVX
I just keep some extra fluids in the trunk, some duct tape, and make sure the spare tire is pumped up and that I have all the pieces to change the tire.
