Detroit to Anchorage; Moving across the continent in a TI. Well, more specifically, Ypsilanti Michigan. about 45 Minutes west of Detroit. Moving to Alaska has always been a pipe dream for me, but it seems that Spring of 2014 It might actually happen. I've spent the past 5 years in and out of just about every college in the state, and I'm finally nearing the end of an Airframe and Powerplant accreditation school (A&Ps are the federally approved mechanics who are allowed to perform Alterations and Maintenance on any aircraft registered in the states) and I've figured it's about time to get out of this terrible economy. Anyways, I'd like to know what's been done in the past to suit up these cars for such long hauls into unexpected territory. Aside from the obvious (spare tire/s, oil, coolant, spark plugs, tools, bulbs, tire chains, fuses, food, water ect.) My greatest concern is fuel... I'm obviously going to need a roof rack, and I'm debating the use of plastic fuel cells mounted on the roof, with a simple rubber line and petcock for refueling on the side of the road. Any other suggestions? Oh, and yes, I do plan on sleeping in the TI for a week or so... I've spent a few nights in her, she isn't too bad |
