A Look Inside a Protectors Vehicle EDC Kit!

[@TimkennedyMMA]

What's the one essential item you always keep in your vehicle for emergencies? Share your must-haves below!

[@billall2067]

Bailing wire

[@billall2067]

Electric fence wire.

[@hubriswonk]

In addition to an HK P30 SK and two 18 round spare mags molly'd to an IFAK and TQ, I keep a sling style non-tactical looking Osprey urban go bag with another med kit, two more mags, two TQ's, space sleeping bag, lightweight jacket, t-shirt, sunglasses, hat (in case I need to change my appearance), battery, several knives, small bottle of water, energy gel packets, 200$ cash, credit card, duct tape, small signal mirror, small towel, pen paper, laminated list of essential phone numbers, gloves, visine, about 100ft of paracord woven into a lanyard with various attachments, super glue and a few other things that I might need. I also carry a spare gi, belt and rash guard in my car in case I might want to roll at a random dojo somewhere unexpectedly, but it's really for friends who show up for training and forgot their gi's!!!!! hahahahahaha!

[@jobypeacock4143]

Jumper cables and tow strap. More for helping others than anything else.

[@james46758]

I wear eyeglasses, so I ensure that I have an extra pair in the vehicle in case something happens to my primary, along with attachable sunglasses for long rides in the sun. I have things to facilitate continued driving in the face of difficulty. E.g., Lens wipes in case my glasses get dirty. Ibuprofen in case I have a headache. Food if I get hungry. Water if thirsty. And, coffee if I need to stay alert. I have a notebook and two pens in case I need to take notes about anything. I also carry a flashlight. But to be honest, I need to up my game with the emergency stuff. Tourniquets, etc. Great video, thanks for the helpful information!

[@RonieGerona]

The seat protector such an under rated piece of kit.

[@OnekamaProducts]

Thanks Tim for teaching the skills and knowledge that have bestowed confidence within me to attend large public gatherings in today’s turbulent society. You are a role model for what is truly just and right.

[@TimkennedyMMA]

My pleasure. It’s a team effort.

[@Nico_GT-CS]

It’s scary that he teaches it to evil crooked cops too.

[@kdtxtooldad]

Excellent episode guys, and really hit the nail on the head about the kids visually seeing the setup and carrying that mentality.

[@ronniereyes4632]

Jump box, x-long jumper cables, EDC (long & carry), survival kit, IFAK (Multi-person - 15 TQ's & STB supplies), sm. bino, 2 SDR fanny-packs filled, water, 2 days of MRE for 5, 2 golf umbrellas, shade/pop-up tent side to afix to side of truck in case needed, extra compass & signal kit, 50 ft of 500D & 50 ft of 1000D paracord, poncho liners for 4. But will be adding a seat cover, b/c that was gold right there!

[@Jordan_B34]

I bought a road atlas last year for Christmas for my family. Awesome tool

[@brianrobinson9602]

Things I don't commonly see which I find pretty clutch. 1. Latex gloves to assist with bloody wounds, 2. Silcock water valve key so you can get water from pretty much anywhere if they remove the valve control.

[@chrispease3385]

Love That You Guys Have Ratchet Straps Jumper Cables And Jump Packs Im From Northern Illinois And Nobody Cares To Help Unless You Have Your Own Jumper Cables Or Jump Box But In The Snow Everybody Stops To Help If You Get Stuck In The Snow But Usually Nobody Has Tow Straps Or Chains To Pull You Out I Put Jumper Cables Ratchet Straps And A Good Hydraulic Jack In My Moms Car And She Always Said It Was Dumb Because She Didnt Know How To Use Them But It Saved Her A Few Times People Will Stop And Help An Old Lady And Having The Tools Makes Their Life ALOT EASIER

[@Four9sFineJewelry]

Tim, I think you need to start a new “punked” series. Instead of pranking people, you go up to random GunTubers and do the same to them what you did to Matt. Call it, “popped.” lol

[@tantanlegoman16]

lol! “Popped”

[@bradyblackburn4863]

I'd watch the hell out of that.

[@TimkennedyMMA]

Dude. That is awesome.

[@Four9sFineJewelry]

@@TimkennedyMMA I think it’s something only you could do too.

[@DaymondLCoffee]

Nah, call it Prepped.

[@jamesmaze3841]

One thing I keep is a battery powered Impact Wrench and the Sockets. Makes changing a Tire in a area that may turn bad really quick.

[@pantherakathecat4440]

Very smart! I'll add impact wrench to my carry. Thanks.

[@tannermutah]

O wow, I learned a lot just from this video. Thanks, guys!

[@davidmenchaca3509]

Love the video thanks ! If i may, your buddy gots you Tim and guys one more last item and its an old school manual tire pump no power grid, no sun, no problem.

[@ajwilliamspaintingandpower7631]

Tim is one of the most admirable men in this whole planet. Hats off to you, sir.

[@Anderton777]

😂😂😂

[@David-Drums]

He might want to add honesty in there before admirable gets labeled.

[@hubriswonk]

Always awesome to hear from the Top Sheepdogs! Equally amazing that most people do not own an actual paper road map these days! hahahaha! I suspect Mat was going to comment on how unorganized Tim's gear is...........just say'n!

[@HazeRambo]

Ain’t no way Matt’s not doing something with that tailgate grid thingy. Very informative and seeing that map brought me back! Crazy that’s what we all relied on before gps.

[@pantherakathecat4440]

Pretty Cool! I mostly carry lots of mechanic tools because I drive a jeep and you know... it like to break down.

[@austinleach6968]

Recovery gear, onboard air compressor, noco jump pack, first aid all I have in the 4Runner.

[@TubeDeviant]

Take a look at the Victorinox Rescue tool which has a window breaker, seatbelt cutter, windshield cutter, general purpose blade, flathead and Philips screwdrivers, bottle opener, toothpick and tweezers.. Basically for extrication from vehicles in an emergency. There's also the Zak Took window punch; also for emergencies for use on tempered glass. I would also add to compliment the tourniquets; chest seals and Israeli bandages.. a few abdominal pads..

[@leslieswiman4813]

YOU ARE VERY WELL PREPARED 👍

[@justinmathias2495]

That slight pause before wonderful wives 😅 Love you guys, Love the content ,keep up the good work

[@run_N_DoubleB_gun_N]

Duct Tape, Coldsteel tomahawk, work gloves, trash bag, sunscreen (I live in Florida), bug spray, lotion, chapstick, 1/2" Velcro tape, Kevlar thread and needle, collapsible baton, glass breaker, butt wipes

[@HardcountsAdventures]

Get rid of the fix a flat and learn to plug a tire, super easy and reusable(fix multiple punctures). ATF fluid is good to have to get you out of a pinch with a way to patch holes in fluid catch pans or power steering/brake leaks. The Jumper pack is very useful. On your tools I use my vehicle tool kit for all repairs with my Jeep, when you do this you'll be surprised how much stuff you carry that you don't use (aka the 9mm socket/wrench). Good video.

[@Dacat_83]

Thanks for your eye opener today’s episode was amazing and very informative,!!’

[@christors]

Tim, great content! Hello from NJ

[@danros6530]

That console of yours looks so much like mine! Right on, Daddy-O!

[@JoeGarcia-qo7um]

Do a video where you audit average Joe's vehicles to see how they stack up to a standard and give advice on how they can improve. Would be fun to watch. Go to states in the southeast versus states in other areas of the country. Keep up the great content.

[@oliverallen5324]

If you haven’t heard of OsmAnd or Avenza, they’re offline maps. Avenza is the standard in wildland fire.

[@nicholasnapier2684]

Keep logging chain around you can use a tree as a fulcrum point you can get yourself out of a lot of jams specially if you’re on a muddy hill and a four-wheel-drive it just keeps sliding around. You can use your buddies car and counterweight your vehicle and get it unstuck.

[@billall2067]

I keep a set of binos in my truck all year long.

[@TheTool117.]

🤨

[@marybriggs2589]

Thanks guys!

[@blockcommando]

Love all of your videos!! You and Warrior Poet Society and the best KZbinrs out there

[@TimkennedyMMA]

Wow, thank you!

[@erokbrewmeister9231]

Great video boys. I am not sure what all the winches and straps would be used for though. Wouldn't you want more water and food, TP, clothing, blankets, etc. ?

[@superkjell]

Have you guys gone on a nice straight, clear piece of road and tried to emergency brake from like 40 mph? How much crap comes flying? In a crash I fear you'd get killed by some of that stuff.

[@kevinlee8935]

Yeah you guys had no idea you were coming in to do this show today so you totally didnt prepare last night right😅

[@RTCIvory]

How about a colab with The Minimalists.😆 Also, I'm going to re up my princess book preps 🧚🏻‍♀️

[@SavageCivilian3]

Absolute loved this!!!!!!

[@XanianEmpire]

Tim, can you make a video on supplements/protein etc. for someone in the military, lifting, jujitzu or a 9to5 person if what we all should be taking daily.

[@anomaly.3860]

Does Texas heat affect car\truck edc at all? Such as electronics and fire extinguisher etc? I image the extreme internal heat on our vehicles take a toll on our valuable items.

[@dusty7264]

Surprised you guys didn’t have any water in your trucks, I have a quart in the cab and five gallons in the back of my truck. But I live in Arizona.

[@Jean-ty2rw]

I’d add extra car alarm, car security stuff (in Austin) they steal anything, even my car owner’s manual

[@jaredcartlidge8099]

Fuses and hose clamps. They take no room but can keep you on the road.

[@commonsensepatriot9450]

Tim, you have a lot of stuff in your truck!

[@surfwave11]

A badge? Is Tim Kennedy a deputy somewhere or something I didn’t know about? -if so, hell yeah

@skepticalhippo6376 I kinda wonder since hes in the texas national guard now, is he also deputized by the sheriff in the state of texas??? 🧐 I feel an internet mystery coming on. Idk how any of that shit works. I wish we could ask him lol

[@benwallace1071]

What was the bag name SGM had in the passenger seat?

[@davidblack9071]

I was the I don’t want the gubment tracking me type and used an Atlas on a cross country trek. Some states have state “highways” that are dirt roads or filled with cattle or have bridges that are out. Smart phones aren’t perfect but maps are way more flawed. I would only keep an Atlas if I were driving out of my area or someplace unfamiliar.

[@joshakaoger69]

Always curious as a basic civ here ...expected some shocked didn't have others 🤔🗽 I got seat covers on Amazon $15 had them years even have huge front pocket for "stuff" spilled a whole McDonald's frappe on them yep waterproof claim is valid 😂

[@Heywoodthepeckerwood]

Overlanding is a great hobby to help you with another angle of preparedness, just do not do the goofy rooftop tent thing they all do. It’s a terrible idea. People that have ever done long term off-road or real 4wd driving will understand why.

I have seen hours of content on what people have. Next to zero hours of content on what people know how to use. Fishing kit. Have you caught fish with it? Water purification. Have you purified water with it and drank it? Food rations. Have you prepared and eaten it? Get where I’m going? Do these influencers have the skills to use what they have. I served 28 years and never had to purify water or hunt for food etc. Does anyone know of any channels where they’re actually showing prac app?

[@johngchambers5]

Graybeardedgreenberet is a good one. I have no doubt a lot of the people who carry these things and show their edc know how to use and implement them, they just don’t have the time/energy/motivation to make videos about them. The Gray bearded green beret’s channel is almost exclusively field craft skills training.

[@Giambis]

This is true. I go camping (I refuse to call it Overlanding) with a rig set up and a few guys that I know and there’s a few guys in my group that go with me that wouldn’t have the slightest clue how to use 90% of all the crap they have. They also have 10 times as much sh*t as I do. When you know how to use thingsless is more. If you have something in your possession and someone where to ask you “just what exactly are you going to do with that and what scenario would you use it in?” and you can’t answer the question then you don’t need it.
