Whats in your emergency kit? (Daily drivers)

[Dasfinc]

Typically in whatever I daily drive I have a fairly beefy 'emergency kit' on board, especially on my trucks. Just kinda curious who else keeps one on board, and what all is inside?

Mine is quite large, and was prepared for this past winter for my 4X4 and has:
109 piece auto tool kit (Autozone $20 special deal)
Blanket/rags
Flashlight(s)
Bandaids
Asprin
granola/fiber bar(s)
electrical tape/small selection of butt splices
lineman pliers (Beefy pliers with wire cutter in them)
2 ratchet straps
duct tape
4 ton drag rope/rescue strap
Screw driver and bit kit
athletes bandage

I'm sure there are a few things I should probably include that I never think about, but it has helped me quite a few times already.

my Infiniti came with a first aid kit which I've used once. And a general tool kit for work thats with me but other than that I dont see the need.

A can of fix a flat. Im not fixing anything on the side of the road, and I dont carry a spare. Insurance covers a tow, so Im not sweating anything.

 

[Dasfinc]

I usually carry my kit with the intent to be able to help friends/others. I've only needed it on the side of the road once, and that was to fix a frayed alternator wire.

[ktraver97ss]

A hooker, a 12 pack, and a pack of smokes...to keep me occupied until help arrives.

Really just a couple tools and jumper cables. Luckily I have relationships with several bodyshops with tow trucks so when my junk breaks i just have them pick it up and bring it to the shop.

 

[SleeperLS]

Prretty good list, this last year I picked up a jumper box with air pump and a hand full of outlets on the front. It has a bunch of odds and ends funtions, but I figure it would give me a jump, pump my tires up, and charge my cell if needed in emergencies. I would suggest water for sure if you have the chance of being stuck for a while. Can live without feed, not without clean water.

 

[Outlaw]

I have in the Jeep/ Sierra

-198 Craftsman Tool Set
-2 20' tow straps
-6 4000# Ratchet straps
-Tire plug kit
-2 sets of jumper cables
-Spare u-joints, hose clamps, universal exhaust hanger, and a ton of other misc. parts
-2 quarts extra fluids for the trucks (gear oil, motor oil, trans fluid, power steering, gallon of coolant)
-All lubricants I would need to do a quick job on the roadside (PB Blaster, brakleen, WD-40, white lithium greese, etc)
-Spare fuses
-Spare bulbs
-3' 0ga. battery cable and terminals

And ALOT more stuff I can't think of. It seems like alot, but I've used just about everything in there. Mostly on other people's cars, not my own. But it still helps out alot.
