I've utilized the CPAP channels in the truck. I also used soclean cleaner for it found on https://sortedforyou.com/best-cpap-cleaner In any case, with all the soil and residue in the truck they stopped up brisk and didn't work excessively well.

For hypersensitivity season I've discovered nasal water system to help me a great deal. It's sort of cleaning your body's common channel - your nose.

Exclamation Additional "Tips"!

Also have Canned Foods and snack bits because there are usually no stores/restaurants available when traffic stops due to the usual circumstances; unusual Weather, other vehicle experiments, pedestrians, animals, equipment failure.

3) ALWAYS KEEP EXTRA (1 or 2 gallons of) ENGINE FLUIDS: Coolant & Oil.

4) Have Tools.
Remember: Better To Have it and Not Need It Than To Not Have It.

5) EXTRA CLOTHING (Thermals, Insulated Jackets, Socks, Gloves, Headwear) as it's NOT always warm in deserts or because the Sun is shining.

Proper Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance.

CHEERS!!

When Winter is upon us, it would be wise to not go too far north of The Wall.

If you must, bring some dragon glass or Valarian steel with you.

Depends on what part of the country. As of this morning, near the Canadian line it's still below zero. That means winter driving conditions are in full force yet. In fact, as of this morning, the USA is the coldest region in the world. Temporary, I'm sure.
