Along the lines of just-in-case or emergency tools/supplies - What do you consider necessary or just nice to have?

    Should be obvious but you should have tire repair stuff in your car. Especially since no one includes a spare tire kit anymore.

    I got a tiny Harbor Freight air pump I keep in my car. It saved my ass on my last road trip when I ended up in the middle of absolutely nowhere with a tire pressure warning on. Stopped every couple of hours to air it back up until I got to the nearest Discount Tire on my journey. I also keep a tire plug kit!

      I have to chime in with a “Discount Tire kicks ass.”

      Also it’s known as America’s Tire in California (the Discount Tire name was already taken when they arrived to the California market).

        I was about to rage before I remembered my beef is with tires+. Every time I tried to take something in there, they would say “it’s illegal to…” No it isn’t, you’re just trying to upsell me.
