Default going on a weekend vaca

What would you recommend I bring if you were taking the car from NY to Maine. It is about a 6 hour drive.

It's a relay and just pulls out from the fuse box. The sticker on the inside of the fuse box lid will tell you which one it is, but I think it's Relay R41. I guess it'd be about $30. Note - it's the DME Relay and not the actual DME!!

Pelican, Vertex, Performance Products, Paragon Products, FVD, Ebay - all good places for Porsche parts. Also Sunset Imports - they have the lowest prices on OEM parts.

Have fun on the trip. I always carry extra oil, fan belt, jumper cables, DME relay and flash light. A cell phone is the tool of last resort.
