I haven't seen anyone mention a legit tourniquet yet. I always have one in my truck and my range bag. If you're spending money on Quick Clot then get a tourniquet as well.

I forgot dermabond. I have a few of those as well.

Eta: this is the heat stable candle I was talking about.



Just enter jewish beeswax candle and you should be able to find it.

Supposedly it can warm your car a fair amount if you get stranded in the cold.

I keep a Rubbermaid type container in my car. In it I have blankets, beach towels, two tow straps, huge wool socks, long sleeve insulated pull over shirt, wool cap, baklava, extra jacket, extra warm gloves, a bright orange vest and a gallon sized ziplock bag with hand warmers, strike anywhere matches, Garmin portable gps w/extra batteries and handcrank radio/light. Roll of toilet paper that can also double as fire starter. Machete. This is also my hunting trunk so I just remove the extra ammo and the camo stuff. At some point I’m going to find some roadside flares. I do have a couple of colored smokebombs left over from fireworks season.
Also have another ziplock bag that has a few energy bars and snacks. I do need first-aid kit though. In the car itself I keep aspirin, a heavy coat, flashlight and of course a firearm and extra loaded mags. I travel a lot so I think about these kind of things.

They never would have caught Rambo in the first place if he had that thing.

I wanted a candle that was sootless and burned for exactly 24 hours.

Apparently that's a concern for Jews. Not mexicans.

PA is having a sale on their shoulder bags. I've used one to build a nice trauma kit. The amount of supplies you can fit in this thing is incredible.

One guy mentioned a Mylar blanket.


They pack so small that you’d want to consider packing four.

Line the entire cabin with them and use the candle. They reflect not only the candle heat, but your body heat.

Sometimes you have to be careful and not sweat with them.
