Can I take a 200000 mile car on a road trip?
Can I take a 200000 mile car on a road trip? Can my high mileage car go on a long-distance road trip (220k and a very regular maintenance)? If you have been keeping up on maintenance and the car is in good mechanical shape, yes, you can take your high mileage car on a long road trip.
How often should you let your car rest on a road trip?
As a general rule, it's best to take a break of at least 15 minutes every two hours, and to not drive for more than eight hours in a day, to ensure you stay alert and avoid the associated risks of driving for too long without a rest. Cars do not need to rest under normal conditions.
