I need a thorough road trip checklist so I can hit the road confidently without forgetting anything important.

My road trip is from [ORIGIN] to [DESTINATION] and will last [TRIP_LENGTH:select:a day trip (no overnight),a weekend (2-3 days),a short trip (4-5 days),one week,10-14 days,longer than two weeks].

The driving conditions will be [DRIVING_CONDITIONS:select:highway and interstate only,a mix of highway and back roads,mostly rural and scenic routes,mountain passes and elevation changes,desert driving with long empty stretches,winter weather with possible snow and ice,coastal roads with variable weather].

My vehicle is [VEHICLE_TYPE:select:a sedan or compact car,an SUV or crossover,a truck,a van or minivan,a rental car,an RV or camper van].

I plan to stay at [ACCOMMODATION:select:hotels and motels along the route,campgrounds and RV parks,a mix of hotels and camping,staying with friends or family,Airbnb or vacation rentals,sleeping in my vehicle].

Activities along the way include [ACTIVITIES?] (such as hiking, beach stops, national parks, city sightseeing, photography, fishing, or visiting attractions).

Special considerations: [SPECIAL_NEEDS?] (such as dietary restrictions, pet supplies, medical equipment, work gear, child car seats, accessibility needs, or towing a trailer)

Build me a complete road trip checklist organized into clear categories: vehicle preparation and maintenance, documents and insurance, emergency and roadside kit, navigation and route planning, food and drinks, comfort and entertainment, clothing and personal items, tech and charging, accommodation supplies, and a pre-departure checklist. Include quantities and timing guidance where helpful. Flag items that are critical versus optional. Tailor every recommendation to my specific route, vehicle, travel companions, and driving conditions rather than giving a generic list. Add tips for fuel planning, rest stop spacing, and how to handle breakdowns or unexpected detours.
