Did someone say summer road trip? There is no better way to spend time with the people you absolutely adore than driving with them for hours on end. Whether you are road-tripping for only a few hours or a few days, nothing beats an adventure with memories that will last a lifetime. There are some necessities that you would absolutely need to get you through the car ride.

1. Food

Food! Preferably, junk food. Potato chips, Oreos, candy, the whole nine yards. You don't want to keep stopping for a little bite to eat, so pack the goods. Keep your energy up.

2. A rocking playlist

Car jams are the best jams. A great playlist to rock along to while you make your way to your destination is an absolute must. Sing along to your favorite songs, sing along to your least favorite songs. Car singing doesn't have to be good. You aren't trying out for American Idol.

3. Neck pillow

Stiff neck? No thanks. Nap comfortably, my friends.

4. Reliable car

Preferably a car that is good on gas mileage and is, as I'd like to say, healthy. We wanna get from point A to point B safely.

5. Beverages

Stay hydrated. But be wary of the multiple bathroom stops you will have to make along the way. Plan accordingly.

6. Camera

Capture these moments. You'll want to look back on these days when you are older. Also, you can never have too many pictures!

7. Great company

It's the people that make the experience. Friends can make what could be the worst experiences some of the greatest memories. Friends make every adventure a grand one and they make every memory a memorable one.
