Re: List Of Road Trip Items

Nice list, Al..... You know the more you bring, the less you'll need/want.  If you have a jumper box, you can probably do without the jumper cables.  I assume your tool box has 1/2 & 9/16 wrenches & soclets, and a couple of screwdrivers.  Not to overlook the obvious, cell phone, AAA towing card, credit card, and, cuz I'm old fashioned, a rand/mcnally road atlas.  Some folks bring their FOID stuff, too.....

Re: List Of Road Trip Items

Cool!  Since Al is bringing all that stuff, and he is going to be right behind me, that means that I do not have to bring ANYTHING! 

Like they say on TV...   THANKS, AL  !!!


Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

Re: List Of Road Trip Items

I was thinking of bringing my wife's old yoga mat, in case the need arises for a roadside repair under the car. She hasn't been to yoga in months... won't even notice it missing.
