Unscheduled live from the road in West Texas! Beautiful but desolate scenery with old pump jacks, massive solar fields, a train wreck causing traffic headaches, and a personal reminder: always top off your tank and do your pre-trip checks.
Key Defensive Preparedness takeaways from the drive:
• Plot your full route (not just the destination) to spot potential delays.
• Keep water, snacks/MREs, extra fuel if possible, socks, and a solid “get home” bag in the vehicle.
• Rotate water bottles and use coolers for longer hauls.
• Balance being prepared without making your rig an obvious target.
Road trips are great real-world tests for everyday preparedness. Stay safe out there!
