I have a used 96 Altima with 88k miles on it. I haven't had a major problem with the car since I bought it 8 months back, except for a slight knocking sound at idle.
I would like to drive with my family from SC to MN (16 hours drive) and save on air tickets. If I keep my RPM below 2500, and make few stops at rest areas along the way, does anyone see an obvious danger in this? I have driven it for 6 hour drives.. but not for 16 hour drive yet. Are there any special precaution I need to take on such a long journey, apart from changing oil and filters before I start?
Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.
