Anyone Alog My Route?

I figured that just in case something happens to the truck on the road, if I know of someone near buy they could have it after I filled it full of .45 holes. J/K But if something did happen I may need parts or even some help. My route is:
I 5 south to
I 90 east to
I 82 south to
I 84 south east to
I 15 south to either
I 70 east or I 80 east (depends on how the truck does over the mountains here)
From Denver I 70 east to
I 55 south to
I 10 east to my new home in Pensacola. I don't have a home yet, but will need one apon arrival.
I may take a HW around some of these Interstates here and there but for the most part, this is the route.
Any info would be great.
I will also be in the Denver/Colo Spgs area for a week and will be trying to get dad to buy a truck. If you know of a swb in really good shape here, dad may want to see it.
Thanks,
Mario

Is there anything that you guys think would be good to cary with me. Of course I am taking all tools and that stuff but I am talking about parts. I am taking my spare starter, fuel pump, 2 belts, and I bought a moduel and another set of u-joints the other day. I just replaced the carrier bearing and u-joints the other day. That was a pain in the @$$. I would rather do it here than on the side of the road somewear. I also have all the fluids I need.

If you can think of something you cary on long trips, let me know for I am driving over 3000 miles.

Thanks,

Mario

The only thing I can think of you may need you obviously have covered (.45).

I'm on the last leg your trip. About 8 miles south of I-10, probably 30 miles from Pensacola.
