Pre-roadtrip check list?

I thought ambient or state might make a difference, so when I got the 53.7* the truck was sitting idle, after little road trip to town (about 10 mile there and back), haven't shut it down yet.
Humidity wasn't bad that day but it was hot outside, ambient was exactly 90*
Under the hood surprised me a bit, that was 140+* at idle between compressor and dryer/accumulator. It cooler when driving I expect.
I guess I'll check it again at cruise, after it's run for a time. Did all you guys check while stationary, any check while on the road?
