okay well i suggest you give your car a complete tune up. Change the oil, oil filter, clean your air filter, check your hoses, vaccum lines, the a/c (you will be going through hot states), flush out your radiator and replace with new coolant, check and replace if necessary your plugs, wires, fuel filters, any exterior lights, tires, brakes, and anything else i missed. SInce you will be going through hot, humid weather, there is a possibility of your car overheating, carry antifreeze and water just in case, maybe even a quart of oil.
