What Every Car Owner Should Have


Recommended Posts

Don't know if these have been mentioned:

 

1. Fix-Flat: for those times when you are in a hurry or at least you don't want to mess up your hands/clothes.

 

2. Jumper Cables: for those who drive automatics

 

3. Hydraulic Jack: the standard scissor-type jack is so difficult to use, replace it

 

Btw, this is a very helpful thread. Keep it up...

Early Warning Device - this is mandated by law

 

Jack

 

Cross-wrench

 

A jug of water - in case of overheating

 

A liter of motor oil - in case you run low on oil

 

Jumper cables - in case your battery is in the fritz

 

Tow cable - in case you need to be towed or you need to help someone else who needs a tow

 

Umbrella - for the rains of course

 

Tools - screwdriver set and wrench and pliers

 

Shades - keep your eyes away from sun glare

may i add A RAIN COAT or JACKET with hood, you may need both hands in changing flat tires in the rain.
