Get gravel/windshield insurance. I thought it was overly cautious but sure enough, a rock cracked our windshield on the last day.

Apparently it's not uncommon for tourists to mix up the regular and diesel pump colors, so just double check before you fill your car or else you'll blow up your itinerary for the day. We saw it happen to a couple while there. Someone I know accidentally did this also and said the local mechanic said he sees one case per day during the summer.

depends on where you go in Iceland. if you are going to Reykjavik, golden circle, and Vik , you may not need 4wd. You are driving the ring road, then I highly recommend a 4wd. The road conditions on the east end isn't as good as the West. You may need to drive off road.

Looked at Squarespace Experts but seems a bit intense for what I need. Google isn't giving me much.
