Not mentioned in the video: It pays to pre-plan your stops from the map. You’re looking for decent-sized towns or, at a minimum, places where a major road transects the freeway. If you are low on gas and your only choice is El Camino sin Nombre, you’ll only have one or two stations to choose from, the gas will be over-priced and the restroom will be awful. Still worse, those kinds of gas stations can put a huge credit hold on your card, so you may not be able to use it at the next stop – or for the next day or two.
