What should I be aware of before a road trip? (lemmy.ca)

I have wanted to go on a road trip for a while, just driving off to nearby towns in my hatchback and exploring. I'd start small, like a day or three. The main thing holding me back is uncertainty of what to bring and how to do it, amongst other issues. I think I can figure out the food and sleep, but I was wondering:

Where to access showers?
Where to refill water?
Is it worth bringing a tent (could I set it up outside of a campsite)?
Where can I park when I need to sleep (that I won't get in trouble for)?
Am I missing anything else?

Was hoping some of you might have advice. I don't have a whole lot of good people to go to about this IRL.

Edit: Just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to respond!

Always carry a bit of cash just in case you run into trouble in between places that uses/has access to credit cards or online cash app transactions. I use something similar to this: https://www.amazon.com/True-Utility-TU251-Cashstash-Waterproof/dp/B075T4L9VX/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?crid=1AHUQTRJE8974&keywords=money+holder+keychain&qid=1693590040&sprefix=money+holder+keychain%2Caps%2C150&sr=8-4
