What would you include is your ultimate "emergency tool carry kit"?

Lol i didnt even read your post after posting mine^^

Great minds think alike.

 

Indeed. Some will say it's laziness, but I say I do my job so others can do theirs. I was a driver and mechanic for years for no extra pay, until I learned to do what I'm told and dummy up. "Gee boss I don't have a clue how to put a clutch in..." An outright lie. But if they paid me even 1/3 of what a shop charged to do the work I would. They want something for nothing.

 

I used to get taken advantage until i realized i didnt have to take it. Its a part of getting wise and mature. Although some folks get older while that doesnt come with it...

 

Duct tape a flare to driver door in case you ever need one in a hurry. As far as tools, carry whatever makes you happy. I think every driver should have the basics; hammer, screwdrivers pliers small socket set vise grips.etc. Just for doing the stupid little things that can be fixed in 5 mins. Oh my truck is less than a year old so this should be taken into consideration too.

 

This should be required viewing for all US citizens.

 

Window smasher tool. It also has a seat belt cutter.

Believe it or not, those side windows break easy when you don't want them broke, but are hard when trying to break them.

I used a sledge hammer on one and it wouldn't break the window. Maybe because I used the flat side against the window, maybe if I used the adge of the hammer head it would have worked.

You can not kick the window to break it. There are many times you'll come across a car with people trapped inside.

Don't ever make the mistake of thinking that if people are standing around a crashed car that nobody is in it dying while people just stand there and watch.

 

with such list's given don't forget about tools for you, sleeping gear, clothing, food and general in cab supplies, etc try to leave enough for yourself.
