Car Assist / Comfort Items - Any Recommendations?

A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭

Looking for long car ride comfort items. Have any of you tried the heating pad or massage pad for the car? Plug or USB? Are they worth it? Do you bring other items? I'm finishing up a 13 hour car trip and feeling it. And yes, we've been stopping so I can stretch out. Thanks in advance!

Thanks all! I like to send out these questions to see if there's more I can do...I have a couple of things to try. Mostly just super happy to be out of the car! 14 hours of driving and riding was a long time to be in the car.

The heated seat works well. My husband know when we go long distances he has to stop more often for longer times. Traveling in a car is my last option for travel. But pillows and hotpads work very well.
