What do you always carry in your vehicle

A colonoscopy is like watching sausage being made.
Not fun at all...

I like watching sausage being made but now you took the joy out of that.....

It’s a great nap.

What I always have in all my rides are jumper cables, duck tape, qt of oil, flashlight, rags, gloves and Bandaids, tape and gauze.

In that i sometimes pull a 6 x 12 trailer and haul partial to full loads of furniture/antiques, etc. and i'm many times out in the boonies, i carry in addition to the regular necessary items a Dewalt portable battery powered air compressor and a battery powered (same battery as compressor) 1/2" impact wrench with regular and deep sockets. They're an extra cost but saves time when raising/lowering a scissor jack, removing and screwing in lug nuts.

From a high lift jack to a small compressor. Straps, clevises, tire repair, and battery box.

You should see when I go on road trips....lol

I carried three many times. Because I needed three once and only had two.

Similar to a trip I took with my last trailer. 10K rated trailer with Load D tires. By the time I hauled my L3800 down to deer camp and back (500mi round trip), I had bought a complete set of 4 load range E tires. I was well within the load range, but I think the 75MPH speed limit was really the killer.

The sad part was none of the new tires matched!! I was stopping at almost every main town to get another tire replaced.

Fortunately, I had a trailer spare that I kept changing each time a tire shredded and I had my Milwaukee impact wrench and a floor jack with me. By the time I got to the last tire, I was like a well-seasoned 1-man NASCAR pit crew.

Sounds like you had "one of them days". I use a hi lift jack. I'd like one of them aluminum floor jacks. I have big floor jacks, but no shoulders around here. I like dirt free wheels. Texas has nice shoulders. Some times I go there just to have a flat because it can be such a wholesome enjoyable experience there. Here in Arkansas, you can imagine. They were going to give us shoulders once, but decided to just bush hog it one every few years to beat the trees back.

extra change for shopping carts at the store. Well thats the plan but it's never there when needed.
