    Out of interest, what kind of stuff do you guys have for an emergency, ie First Aid box, or neutralising chemicals?

    a 9mm Glock



    <j/k> Actually, I only have a couple of cheap cotton towels and paper napkins. I should probably be more prepared, but whatever I would have would need to be compact (fit in the spare tire area?).

    I keep a flashlight, portable battery jumper, a small air compressor (for tires), some gloves and a small tool kit in the trunk. Also always have the cell with me. Plus I carry an "emergency" detailing kit as well.



    In the garage I have a first aid kit and of couse a "ABC" rated fire extinguisher. Hmmm, a mini fire extinguisher for the trunk sounds like a good idea.

    Flashlight

    Cell Phone

    Small Tool Kit

    Emergency Detail Kit:

    small bottle of QD

    small pack of MFs & cotton towels

    small bottle of window cleaner

    small car vac that plugs into cigarette lighter



    All these (except cell & light) are kept in a navy blue Land`s End diaper bag that no longer was needed, but too nice to throw away. Makes a great car kit!!



    Baggie of baby wipes & one of cut-up Swiffer`s plus a little mini-first aid kit (with flare, band-aids, etc) in the glove box



    I really need some jumper cables!

    I Have My Built In mercedes timeport cell which is on a bosster so it gets really good reception. A second portable cellphone, and Tele-Aid (mercedes equivalent of onstar). In dash navigation in case i get lost. As far as electronics, im well equipped and connected. :p

    For the moment, I have a 4 way lug wrench. I do plan to put a small fire extinguisher in the rear as well as a first aid kit and a floor jack.

    Sorry, I meant to ask, what do you keep in your garage. However, you have all given me food for thought.

    Garage? Umm, a garden hose? Good for acid and base spills given enough volume.
