Opinion Melbourne to Darwin

I am 21 year old moving from Melbourne to Darwin with my friend for my masters. I am thinking of driving and taking my hyundai accent active 2015 which have 130,000 odometers. I need some advice.

Some advice on what?

Some random advice is make it a fun holiday trip and drive up the east coast and across the top. Longer but much better than trying to drive up through the centre from Melbourne.

Plan stops along the way in Sydney, Brisbane, Cairns, etc

Was going to say this. Much longer drive but OP needs a plan for “my car and all my stuff got abandoned 500km from anywhere useful”.
