Hello, I am preparing to pick up a Marauder this weekend. It's a 2003 with some mods. I'm looking forward to learning from everyone here.

I'll be driving the car home from Maryland. Any specific things I ought to make sure to pack in my "get home toolkit"?

Welcome! You bought the car sight unseen? Know anything at all about its history? Has money already changed hands? A motor club card is always helpful - at least you don't have very far to go. Be sure to get a temp paper plate for transport at the nearby DMV office while in Maryland. Let us know how it turns out.

I would pack:

AAA card (Invective said the same)
jack...a good one
lug wrench

set of automotive fuses
food
Monster Zero soda
sunflower seeds

Thanks for the welcome and the advices. I've got AAA, my usual toolkit, some good friends, and a sense of adventure. I will add the serpentine belt.

I'm also in Hilliard. It will be nice having another Marauder around!

Annnnnnd home without incident. Found a couple things to address, but the car was definitely as described. I have wiring diagrams and service manual on the way. Looking forward to learning.
