So what do you guys put in your car (or keep in your car) to help you make it through the winter? Me, I have roughly the following, most of which stays in my car year-round:

- hardcore ice scraper (the kind with the 3-foot extended pole to get those hard-to-reach roof spots. Also handy for zom-def if properly modified.)
- flares, jumper cables, basic tools, chains
- shovel (again with the zom-def double-up.)
- blanket, some extra layers of clothes
- area maps

Once met a girl from Montana who thought it was ridiculous I didn't keep firewood and a gun in my car as well. Varying degrees for everybody, I suppose.
I cite irreconcilable differences.

hmm. ice scraper, jumper cables, blanket, bunch of grocery bags (hey, you never know), flashlight, a book and an old granola bar. Oh, and an umbrella. And mittens; I have a pair of mittens in the glove box.

No guns. ^_^

Oh heck yeah. They make for GREAT water-proofing. 'Specially for your feet.

I've got a couple big plastic garbage bags in the trunk too, and couldn't remember why I had put them there. Of course! Emergency rain coats. srsly.

my grocery bags are cloth, so not sure how waterproof they'd prove to be. ^_^ But they live in my trunk, so hey.

I need new flares. Used mine up a couple months ago and haven't replaced them yet.
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.
