I carry an extra belt,a flex bar to change it,and an electrical kit I've made up.
That's it.
Although I do all my own repairs/maintenance,if we're on hollidays or the like,all I carry is a credit card with a 0 balance and a $25,000 limit.If things go real bad I'll just buy somethin' different.

"i thought the plug wrench might be handy to throw out the window at a tailgater" How about dumping waste oil into the exhaust? Does the exhaust get hot enough to smoke the oil? I guess POD's could accomplish the same thing!

"THREE" how do you fit three in there?

EASY, two reside in the frame-mounted rack, and one under the hood; I have room for several more, should I feel them necessary.

And not one wrote "cell phone to call for help". What a bunch of MEN on here.
I am the last guy I know that does not own a cell.

Heck, I joke I always tow a spare Dodge on the trailer.

So far, I have managed to exist without having a cell-phone.

At the shop, I have had more than a few grown so-called "men" tell me that they don't mess with a spare-tire and tools; they just call someone.

I have caller-I.D. and guess what I do when I see any of their numbers show up.

How about a baggy of misc. fasteners and o rings, gasketting materials, and something I highly suggest is assorted tubes of teflon high temp sealants, epoxies such as JB weld.

Nothing wrong with either, they just don't get my money often.
Just poking fun at the cell phone addiction.
When cell phones were new, only a Doctor on call was so important that they may need one. Now everyone "needs" one.

I finally caved in and got one when I was working for a contractor friend and he just hated that he couldn't communicate with me at the jobsite while he was out on supply runs and vice versa. I finally got one of those great big bag phones, and I started liking having it my truck when I was away from home alot. I don't know if you've noticed, but pay phones are pretty much a thing of the past in a lot of places.

Then US Cell stopped supporting the old analog signal that my bag phone worked on and I was so used to having a phone by that point, I switched to a yuppie pocket phone. It was hard to find one that wasn't also a camera, an mp3 player and a food processor...
