Firing up the RV for a road trip to the World's Largest Ball of Lint in East Moosejaw? Our Car Talk Trip Planner should be your first stop.

It could save you from a mechanical breakdown in the Mojave, or a marital breakdown with your spouse and mother-in-law.

We'll tell you where to go (nicely, we promise) and how to get there, and we'll share some of our favorite things to do on the way like actual, proven pick up lines you can try when stuck in traffic. (Note: Car Talk is not responsible for inter-vehicle disapproving frowns.)

Yours in blissful roadtrips,

Tom and Ray
