re: 10 things everyone should keep in their cars

11. Their music.

12. Themselves, even if that other guy really was driving like a dick.

First aid kit/CPR mask/first aid book all in its own separate red tote filled with other emergency items like wound wash and bandages

I keep a bigger tote that’s for a jug of water/ box of nabs/ hoodie/sweatpants/sleeping bag/flashlight/ jumper cables/ a small axe

USB cable/battery bank goes with me wherever I go anyway so I always have that on me as well
And the gun in the glove compartment

Can’t tell you how many fires I encounter in my Toyota Camry! Luckily I had my blanket so I don’t freeze is South Louisiana!

No gun no care

Tire plug kit.
12v air pump
plyers
screwdriver

Sounds like a vastly shorter version of every college semester I went through

I am a Captain in the U.S. Air Force Auxiliary and we do search and rescue missions etc. that require us to have 24/72 hour packs so I keep hat in my truck at all times.
