check or have somebody check the condition of your ignition system. I specifically had a problem where the little screw that holds the rotor in had worked its way out...left me stranded on the highway after sputtering to a stop. Just do a good tuneup before you go: everything you said, plus maybe a coolant flush, check power steering, valve adjustment, fuel system cleaners do wonders, new plugs, etc.

but then again I'm paranoid and my car doesn't like long drives...you have a newer car, I wouldn't really worry about anything, just take frequent brakes, a cell phone, and your credit card. youll be fine
