ZOOOOOM!

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. |

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.

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. | |
