Other posts here have me realizing a jacket would be a wise addition.

Also, if you live in a cold climate, you might consider a pair of gloves, a pair of boots and a toboggan.

I most certainly don't. The opposite in fact.

Still you can die of exposure at temperatures much higher than most people think.

Some leather or teflon gloves are probably a smart idea anyway for if I find myself working on a hot engine on the side of the road though. Fuck knows my last car left me in that situation too many times. Usually wearing boots anyway because #gothlyfe

Lol hey it gets super dusty here, the area around the shift boot, ac vents and steering wheel collect much dirt especially during monsoon months

HKz I think my car would give you an aneurysm and it's fairly clean by my standards right now.

Tripod, skateboard/skate shoes, air pressure gauge.

In the winter I have a pair of boots, gloves, snow brush, shovel replacing the skateboard and skate shoes.

Brilliant! I totally need to do that. I'm constantly brushing stuff off the dash while sitting at lights.

Besides the standard tools that come with the car, in my trunk I have....

1 lithium ion jump box (that replaced a set of 20ft long jumper cables.
1 flight bag with things I need for the airport to take a quick flight
1 semi-cold weather coat with gloves and a ski cap.
1 cheap rain poncho.

You'll thank me later

my gf & son help me when they ride along, perhaps momhawk can help too

That little spot is perfect, the brush has never managed to fall despite my crazy driving.

Four pages and no one has listed the single most essential item: a condom

No wonder there is a thread asking what gets the most chicks...
