Along for the ride are his loving wife Ellen (Beverly D'Angelo), rebellious teenage daughter Audrey, and wise-cracking son Rusty. As they hit the road in their trusty station wagon, chaos ensues with hilarious pit stops, unexpected detours, and encounters with eccentric characters like Cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) that test the family's patience and bond.
