This discussion was about tools to maintain our cars, but there is a spot
that started working on what to carry.

I do not have the original tool kits for my cars and just last week bought some fabric to make tool rolls.
Went to a local tool supply and picked up some essential wrenches, pliers, and a 4 bit screwdriver.

I am going to toss jumper cables in the trunk of each car too.
So I'll end up with: 3 belts, two fuel filters, wrenches and pliers, spare fuses, jumper cables.

And... My Auto Club Premium membership that allows towing up to 100 miles.

I thought it was important to focus on only the the sizes needed.
A lot of things in off the shelf tool kits you will never use.
Let's list what sizes are essential.
