Summer is almost upon us is your ride ready ?
These should be at least the minimum equipment . Just thought of putting a list together in case there is someone out there that just had their truck join their family and will be experiencing the summer for the first time
First Aid Kit
If you put your own emergency car kit together, make sure none of the items are in glass bottles or vials – put them in plastic containers with tight lids, instead.
Your first aid kit should include:
* Adhesive tape
* Sterilized gauze bandage
* Sterilized gauze pads
* Plastic band strips
* Disinfectant salve, Mercurochrome, Merthiolate, or iodine
* Small scissors
* Aspirin or other pain relievers
* Tweezers
* Something to relieve itching, burning eyes
* Hand sanitizer
Vehicle Tool Kit:
A good vehicle tool kit includes
* Screwdrivers – Phillips and flat head
* Pliers
* Set of good socket wrenches
* Duct tape
* Electrical wire tape
* Electrical wire spray
* Flashlight with extra batteries
* Small fire extinguisher
* Jumper cables
Make sure there's a jack and a lug wrench in the vehicle and that the spare tire is inflated to its proper pressure. See Owner's Manual for recommended tire pressure numbers.
Please add to this in case i missed anything
