What do you keep in your rig?

[Soilman]

I tend to keep enough stuff to get me out of, or through a tough situation. Jump starter, jumper cables, extra set of cloths, sneakers, self defense items, some water and snacks, tools, tow strap, small shovel, axe, machete, and a get home bag.

A couple bottles of water, and a roll of paper towels. Come Winter add quality jumper cables, a blanket, tow strap, and a real snow shovel. (none of that folding, collapsible mini emergence snow shovels for me thank you). I'm retired so I don't have to go anywhere and use that luxury if it looks like it is going to storm or the roads are slippery.
When I worked for a living and would be gone from home from 04:00 to 20:00-21:00, there was all kinds of crap I hauled around. Gas, oil, gas&oil, axe, chainsaw, tow chains, extra tobacco, extra lighter fluid, pulp hook, Heavy coat, heavy pants, boots, wool hat, (we had great uniforms hot in the summer, cold in the winter and uncomfortable all year long). If I was going to walk I was going to be warm. couple buckets of salt & sand.

I used those same large hooks to tie down my jeep on a flat bed. They are great!

Neat set up.

Great setup.

Been thinking about a tow setup of some sort. Wouldn't be steel, 30ft of knockoff dyneema or a kinetic rope and a couple soft shackles. Not for long distance tows, just enough to get someone out of the ditch and back onto pavement.

Ha!
We always had a few of those on the tow truck and rollback for vehicle recovery and tie down.

Leather gloves
Throw away clothes

Forgot to mention I have like four pair of gloves in my kit. Two lightweight fabric mechanic gloves, one leather work pair and one insulated leather work gloves, I like this mostly for hot handles and such around a fire.

I've also meant to buy some disposable overalls and keep a pair or two in each vehicle.

I used to have disposable work gloves but I stopped because the heat made the gloves almost melt together and cold made the gloves brittle.
