I personally have a 4 way lug wrench, 2 6 inch clevis's and a 60,000 lb rated tow strap.  I also have a small fire extinguisher(buddy gave it to me) and a bigass mag lite flashlite. (In Red!)  That just about does it for me.  I would like to eventaully get a bed tool box, to keep a cheap china set of tools in and all the stuff I just mentioned that doesn't fit all that well behind my bench seat.

 

What about you guys?

What kind of emergency, truck, or in our case animal?  :devil:

 

For machinery:

Tow strap/clevis

God knows how many tools

Cellphone

Wintertime, scoop shovel

 

Animal (cattle):

Calf puller with chains

Bloat needle

Scours pills

Halter

Full length arm gloves

Cellphone

 

With the truck, I really don't consider any breakdown an emergency, however, the latter does qualify.  When you see something wrong, you have to act NOW or else something is going to die.

So far I have:

 

a bunch of tools

shackle (need a good tow strap though)

a big maglite and a lil' maglite

duct tape

jumper cables

first aid kit

canine first aid kit (for my doggies)

gloves

tie down straps

a backpack

my GPS

leatherman tool

S&W tactical folding knife

military fighting knife (6in blade) in sheath always next to me

and I always have my cell and another S&W folding knife physically on me.

 

That is all that I think I have??  I wanna get a tool box/chest for the bed to hold a bunch of this crap.  Also want to throw in a good jack, a fire extinguisher for sure, a better first aid kit, shovel, blanket, flares, extra parts like belts and all, and whatever else I can think of.  Maybe a CCW when I turn 21 too.  No one ever tells you tourists about our lovely crime rates here in sin city. ???

From the looks of things, most people on this board are loaded down and able to survive on their own for two months!
