The "well, duh" post

So, you've decided to roadtrip, what do you need? While most everything is common sense and pretty obvious, we'll discuss it anyway.
1. Clothes. I don't know about you, but not a huge fan of wandering strange towns nekkid. I always pack one or two days extra of clothes, just in case. Accidents happen, and sometimes we decide to stay out a day longer. Obviously you could wash your clothes at a hotel, but it doesn't cost you anything to pack an extra outfit or two.
2. Atlas. I personally take two with me. Both are medium-size and by different companies. Sometimes cities and roads aren't always on one map but will be on another map. Or certain cities will be on one map but the same map won't have certain roads on it. I prefer the medium to the large size for just room and ease of use.
3. Camera. I mean, come on, you're on vacation. This is a must. You may see some scenery you think is picture worthy, or you may want to wander around the city you stop in for the night.
4. Cash. Because not every is plastic friendly.
5. Friends/family. Who wants to travel alone? And doesn't everyone need a break from driving?
