Long Trips; it's very important to give the car a thorough checking over. And that really means that it should go into a repair shop and you should get a full blown safety inspection because there are a lot of things on a modern car that could be going bad but don't give you any symptoms, so just because you don't feel anything doesn't mean there isn't anything going wrong.
They are going to check all of the safety items
o Suspension
o Steering
o Tires
o Breaks
And on top of that, they are also going to check rubber parts, like belts and hoses, which age over time. If there's something wrong with it; it's automatically bad. But if it looks good, that doesn't necessarily mean it is good. The idea is to replace belts and hoses whenever they're bad or if they don't show any signs of being bad, replace them at five years or 75K miles.
