[Overdrive]

Did the whole "4 tires in the trunk" thing today picking up snow tires on steelies. Had to stack two of them on the folded seat back and mostly behind the passenger seat, and laid the other two flat next to each other in the trunk space.

Normally the trunk only has a few spare things in it: Emergency kit about the size of a large novel(jumper cables, work gloves, a few first aid bits, cutting tool, chem lights, space blanket, poncho, tire pressure gauge, few other bits), similar sized bag to hold an extra quart of oil, and a hand brush/ice scraper. Usually stays tucked in the rearmost corner on the passenger side. I try to keep the trunk junk to a minimum so it never snowballs out of control.

I do need to add a foot pump for those SOL moments, and a set of wrenches and sockets matching the fasteners in the car, and that should about cover me for virtually all car emergencies without getting heavy and massive.
