whats in your truck (or car)... emergancy wise

[rambuck]

A knife and sometimes a hand held cattle prod. You know.

[Caleb1]

He he...love the cattle prod....


I also wanna reiterate the fact that this stuff should be stored in a box. My best friend was hit by a DUI and caused him to flip his taco. Please keep that in mind.

Small tool box (wrenches, rachets/sockets, hammer, pliers, vice grips, screw drivers, etc..), carpenters extendable knife, hose clamps, jack, crowbar, electrical tape, binocs, painkillers, couple gallons of coolant n' water, misc. trash in the back incase i need to start a fire, Glock 17 and a 10/22 with couple hundred rounds.

Tools on wheelin trips, army issue medic bag from my friend w/ IV bags and adrenalin shot on wheelin trips.

Otherwise nothin.

Some of these lists are getting a little crazy.... I think theres less crap in my house than some of y'alls trucks...

And I'm intrigued by the whole cattle prod thing and what the hell you use it for...

My 81 (my super hick utility truck/shed) has the following;
-semi jumper cables (bigger is better)
-giant thing of brake fluid (the master cylinder leaks right now)
-blankets
-tarps
-bungee cords, rope and other restraints
-rusted out tow chain I got from the previous owner
-shovel, broom, hoe, axe
-craftsman garage style toolbox bolted to the bed (has harbor freight tools in it lol)
-road maps from 1975 (all from previous owner)
-about 5 different types of flamable liquids just behind the seat (starting fluid, wd-40, carb cleaner, you get the idea...)

This truck certaintly turns heads, but it helps me get **** done thats for sure...

Well some men who's work is also their life have things like this. I have plenty of Rancher friends back home that usually have one in at least one or 2 rigs. It's to get that cattle moving when their been stubborn, or for entertainment when people ask you dumb questions Though, there is usually a rifle in their too...
