In the front seat, I have:
A CD book because my car doesn’t have an auxillary audio input,
My sunglasses
A sunshade for my windshield, so the Arizona sun doesn’t ruin my dash
In the glove box, I have:
Napkins
Extra plastic forks and spoons leftover from fast food
In the trunk:
Moving blanket
Fender cover
Some shop rags
Toolbox with the essentials
A pair of work gloves
Sun hat
A basic breakdown kit with first-aid, jumper cables, flashlight, etc, which is in the process of being upgraded into a kit that would actually be useful with high-quality tools
A marine flare kit, including road flares, a smoke signal, and a flare gun, all 30 years old.
A fire extinguisher that I need to have recharged
Spare tire and scissor jack
A light that runs off of my cigarette lighter
A box of stuff I keep meaning to donate
A bag of zip ties because one of my buddies has a bad habit involving his front bumper and curbs, so I often find myself assisting in piecing his front end back together so he can drive it home without anything scraping
A tow rope is on my to-purchase list
Basically my little ’06 Hyundai Sonata has become the designated support vehicle for my family and friends, so I try to keep a pretty comprehensive emergency/repair kit
P.S. If you have any suggestions on what I should keep, please let me know, I’m working on adding more tools and items so that I am prepared for as many situations as possible.
