What Essentials Do you Keep In Your Car
Inspired by the ECD (Every Day Carry) thread, figured this would bring some interesting results or possibly informative ones that people can pick from to use on their car. Aside from, if applicable, spare tire and lift kit, what essentials do you keep on your car all the time? I'll begin, feel free to post links for the items you have.
1. Quick Detailer 2. Microfiber Towel 3. Oil Rag 3. Sunglasses 4. 12 V adapter for multiple USB connections. 5. OFT Tablet (In case of CEL) 6. Tire shine 7. First Aid Kit 8. Small Mechanics Tool Set (Jumper Cables, Small Wrenches, Tow Straps, Hazard Triangle, Flashlight, etc) 9. 1QT of Engine Oil. |
1. tissues for nose blowing
2. sunglasses 3. umbrella 4. sun shade 5. oil rag Don't have any tools or spare tire. Work is pretty close (18 km) so when I got a flat rear tire, my wife brought me 2 of my summer tires and tools and I just swapped the rears in the work parking lot and when I came home, swapped the other two. Granted it was spring and time to switch to summers anyway. |

Same here, is a short 20 min drive from home to work, I keep most of the things I have mostly out of habit from military, we couldn't go anywhere without having a lifting kit, first aid, and extra additives. So it just stuck. |

Let's not forget the multiple bots everyday and the crowd that never, ever, ever ventures beyond the second gen is the bestest threads. |
I don't keep anything in my car :iono:

Everyday? Sunshade and a USB cord?
My wife has like emergency raisins in her glove box, different shoes, a blanket, enough recyclables to purchase an emergency gallon of gas, a dog bowl, and maybe some spare stuff for art activities? |
Right now I've got
- Bottle of ONR detailer - Microfiber towels - foldable lawn chair - Hand sanitizer - Mini battery pack for charging phone. |
-USB stick (need muh tunes!)
-lighter > USB charger adapter to plug my iphone cable in since theres only 1 USB slot in the car. -Pen -extra masks (not needed so much anymore with our province reopened) -sunshade -sunglasses -box of tissues (doesnt fit in any of the storage areas so this so it sits in the back seat...will probably switch to those smaller travel sized ones when i run out) -blanket (also doubles as a sort of towel, its to prevent the dirty stuff from muddying up the seats) -hand sanitizer |
