Sorry this is terrible advice. They definitely need to be torqued, especially for a multiple hour drive-even if it is just one lug. If not, you risk the wheel coming off, warped rotors etc.
if you don’t want to get a torque wrench buy the missing lug and take it to a tire shop or dealer, wouldn’t be surprised if they put it on for free.
