I would trim down your list

only 10, 12 and 13 mm wrenches

a couple screw drivers (small and medium flat and phillips, and a short phillips)

spare spark plugs and a spark plug socket with ratchet

I would delete the vise grips, large sockets and ratchet, mallet, fuel can and nuts and bolts

do the normal maintenance before the trip (air and fuel filters)

check cv joint boots

make sure you have good tires

check all wheel bearings for looseness (jack tire off ground and check wheel)

replace wipers before trip and don't bring spare wiper blades. Best to have good blades on the car

check for loose bolts and screws before you go
