you can normally find em for 10 bucks or so, and they are easy enough to move around wherever.

Only 4 filters on my truck... oil, 2 fuel (a must), and coolant....

Cam sensors are #1 failure on 7.3. Can be changed in less than 2 mins.

The little blue bottle heaters. But spend the money for a self igniting trigger head...

I have something similar to this. Paid a little less but it works like a champ. I actually had to use it last year when wifes fuel pump went bad. Kids and family were stuck in car for an hour. Lets just say they were nice and toasty.

I updated above.


But yeah, 65qt and the moving blankets are in the bed. everything else fits under the backseat or into storage compartments out of the way.

I like how you breezed over the beer keg tapper though...


edit: here's my sexy ass sitting on it in STL last weekend

an ice scraper.

i should really carry more shit with me though. insurance covers a tow, and I'm not working on something on the side of the road. I'll pay money to get my junk hauled away before i get killed by some 16yr old girl texting.

having some shit with you is nice just so you don't have to buy tools if it's a simple something

last year going to the dells i lost a power steering line and lost all power steering.. not a day ender, but it gets annoying of course... i fixed it with needle nose pliers and a zip tie in a gas station parking lot.

I don't own a truck. In my SUV I have a snow scraper, bungie cords and ratcheting straps.

Like Jared said, I have towing... Plus I am not usually far from home so I'll just go get what I need and come back.

I like clean empty vehicles.


I do as well. But I also like going out in snow storms and rescuing poor souls stuck in ditches.
