Since most women will require pit stops about every 4 hrs or less. Figure
on Dinner or Truck Stop Dinning. This also helps in letting you
relax/unwind from driving so you won't fall asleep.

Dinner or Truck Stop eating can be pleasant...I hear good things about
Cracker Barrel.

But for in car refreshment various fruit juices and coffee or tea travel
well in a thermos.
