What are some essential items a person should always have in their car at all times? :|
 
RE: Must have's for your car?

  • Spare tire (in good condition)
  • Tire inflater and sealer, like the Fix-a-Flat
  • Tire Jack
  • Tire Iron
  • Jumper cables
  • Road Flares or Reflective Triangle
  • Tow Rope
  • Flashlight (Extra batteries)
  • First aid kit
  • Blanket
  • Change of clothes
  • Matches
  • Whistle or Air Horn (you can use either to attract attention, especially if you've slid off road and cannot easily be seen)
  • Paper towels or toilet paper (never know when you might need to wipe...) :lol:
  • Bottled Water
  • Non-perishable food (candy bars, energy bars, etc.)
  • Cell Phone Charger
  • List of emergency numbers
  • Map (for those of us without a GPS)

All except for the water and candy bar/energy bars. It's too cold and they would freeze. I do have them in a bag that I take with me when I go out.
 
RE: Must have's for your car?

I think I've got most of that in my van, and things like a full socket set, some spare parts, a couple of fishing poles, and some random junk.

Now, I have a question.

Where do you put all that crap if you have one of these.....

Lol, does your car have one?
 
RE: Must have's for your car?

Are you planning on rolling your car any time soon? :P
 
RE: Must have's for your car?

I tend to ignore everything that isn't a rule or announcement, but if you insist.

Yes but I want to buy another e30 body and move my engine setup on the new one to make it only for show because they don`t allow my car on public roads anymore :D then I will make a roll cage because it's the safest thing on a car if you have a helmet too. I will keep my actual car for day driving.
