First Long Trip -- What are the "must dos" and "must haves"?

Against my better judgment, I'm pulling our 30' FW from LA to Dayton OH. We normally pull it on 2 hour round trips to the beach in/around California. So, how should I prepare for the trip? I welcome...

You mentioned 'LA' to OH so I first thought you meant Louisiana but I think you meant Los Angeles. If so, you'll be crossing some hot desert. Try to start out early morning or start out around 4pm and drive through some darkness if you can.

Other than that you shouldn't have any different issues with driving a long trip. You might not want to drive long days continuously. Stop and rest up an extra day. It really helps. Have a good trip!
