Default What is in your pickup's Emergency Kit?


Time for another
"What's in your emergency kit?"
post.

There are several new products out there to quickly clot blood
having been developed for the US Army.
Anyone carrying these yet?

Any recommended items/parts
specific to Ram pickups that ought to go in a kit
(ASD relay, fuse type, special quick set glue, etc) ?

Are there any new hand tools
you have found that are worth buying
for a kit to eliminate heavier individual tool pieces?

I like the 'Tire Repair Screws' over conventional push in plugs

I also carry one of these 4 in 1 hatchet like tools
and two of those 'Ove Glove' for handling hot or raw edge metal since they have a layer of Kevlar.

Anyone found a inexpensive place to buy the super-strong Spectra rope like many of the electric winches are using in place of steel cable?

Come on, give away your secrets for the good of the pickup community......

Haven't put together a kit yet to use on the truck other than a box a misc. fuses in the glove box, but plan on it on soon. I also have a minor first aid kit with bandaids, gauze, and crap like that. Right now I am adding a hose kit to my air tank that I use my horns so I have access to inflate tires when I need it.

Got a empty foil covered coffee bag
you can cut up instead of throwing out?

If so,
you can cheap & easily make a little roll up reflector
that will increase the range of a cell phone
in an emergency:

The same idea can be used on WiFi equipment
