Default 96 es300-170k miles-going on 1k mile trip.. need advice

Hey all. I have a 96 ES. I am about to venture on a 1k mile trip from UT to OR. Aside from changing the oil, and possibly doing a drain and fill on the tranny, is there anything else you all would suggest I do to get ready for this, I would appreciate it. The car has never been on a long trip like this since I have owned it for the last year. Belts are changed, just changed the High Pressure PS hose form Pump to Fan, and tires are newer. Let me know. Thanks in advance!!
