Hey /trv/, I'm moving from Detroit MI to Tempe AZ in a little over a week. I'm 25, 10 boxes and a bike packed and ready. I already have a place to stay, job lined up etc. I'm just concerned about the long drive alone. Has anybody else made this type of long distance relocation? Did anything go wrong or what would you have changed?
Long drives are fun. Bring good music, snacks and just cruise.
Pull over and nap if you feel you need to. Drink coffee. There's not much more too it then that.
Pretty much what that guy said. If you're not tight on schedule, then check out some places. But get plenty of rest, and if tired, always pull over. Podcasts are great too.

Get your car serviced before the big drive.
Get a large thermos and fill it with coffee every morning.
Try to hit the big cities in the late evening and get a hotel on the outskirts
Don't be afraid to detour for a day if you want to see something on the way.

OP here, that's a long fucking haul How do you deal with the mid-southwest plains? I can't get over how flat it all is The occasional ghost town looks interesting but it doesn't do much for my gas tank or my attention span

Looks really fun OP, if I was nearby I'd join you if you want company.

I moved from Oregon all the way back to Florida once. I stopped and checked out a bunch of cities I'd never been to; just parked and walked around. Stopped in Salt Lake City, Denver, Nashville, etc. Met some cool people, just small everyday occurrences that somehow felt warming. Just something about being on the open road. Relax and enjoy yourself, don't be shy to stop and smell the roses every once and while, oh, and download some audiobooks too, great for traveling.

I listened to a lot of house music and podcasts honestly.
