<VV> Whatd'yapack (Mechanically) for the trip?

[Jim McLott]

I concur with the three things that Bryan lists.  I would also add a AAA Plus card.  The only mechanical part I carry is a spare fan belt and the tools necessary to install it.  A tire pressure gauge is standard equipment in the glove box of every vehicle in the McLott fleet.

Ditto.  I suppose you could add a spare fuel pump to the list, and points if
you're in Smitty's "no newfangled electric lights for me" camp.  More important
is to make sure everything is in good working order before you travel.  If
you're just putting the finishing touches on big mechanical changes the night
before you're supposed to leave, consider renting a trailer.
