[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 198772, member: 3373"] Hate to admit this but in more than 50 years of driving I have never needed a survival kit. Knock on wood. I usually carry a shovel and a tow rope in my pickup. The shovel I carry because I might need it when fishing. Sometimes there is a left over jacket from a fishing trip, etc. Also have matches or a butane lighter as they are always in my pickup. Then again I guess I just about always have my fish-house heater in the pickup during the winter as well. Wife might have an extra jacket in her car as well. Add in the we both always have our phones with us as well as charging cords in each vehicle. Don't know if I know anyone who doesn't have a cell phone these days. Has to be some who don't, just don't know anyone who doesn't. With today's vehicles and EFI it seems as though motor trouble is nearly nonexistent. Or maybe that's because I'm a GM guy. I hope I'm never in the situation where I need a kit but to this date I've never been in that type of a bind. Then again, if it's predicted to be that bad I usually won't go. Wish me luck. [/QUOTE]
