Hello,

Well, the real question is do you trust it to make the trip?

If you have kept up the maintenance on it and it is running good with no or minor problems. Then a couple things I would ask myself.

When was last Oil and Filter Change?

Last Air Filter Change?

Last Fuel Filter Change?

Last Tune Up?

Is Coolant mixed properly for the colder climate?

Age of Battery? If it is more than 4 years old and going from a fairly warm climate to a colder climate could kill a battery pretty quickly.

What shape are your tires in including spare?

And

When was last Brake Service? Would recommend having them checked.

So, if all above is to your satisfaction then be Safe and Enjoy your Trip.
