Your leaving out a tire plug kit and 12v powered air compressor, sometimes plugging is way more efficient than throwing on a spare. Also a hi-vis vest and some flares for the road.

[@SmokeyRidgeRunner]

For vehicles in the winter a large non scented candle is a must. I've broke down in winter in the mountains and used the candle heat the cab of the truck for the night.

[@Alessandro-tf5xh]

I disagree on medical, you should get trauma supplies in your veichle, if you get in a car accident you need to be able to provide life saving first aid before the ambulance arrive there

[@MarineX]

Trauma supplies in untrained hands can cause harm. Ouchie boo boo kits are a standard.

[@KevinNordstrom]

I Always have an Israeli badge, blanket, and tourniquet in the vehicle to treat Trauma and shock. Trauma isn't that difficult to treat. But not having the right tool can easily cost a life.

[@Zeeangelofdeath]

Dude not everyone is a emt Also putting yourself in harms way before the ambulance arrives can make you apart of the accident. Sometimes calling an ambulance is the best advice for a civilian. Unless you have trained or don’t mind that being a hero could cost you your life then then go for it

[@stevecastellarin698]

Great list! For winter you definitely want the beanie and gloves. Especially if you're in a cold section of the country. Maybe even a small shovel. Up in the Northeast where we are I always throw a small collapsible snow shovel in the trunk, in case you ever get stuck in some snow and need to dig a tire or two out.

[@bigredmed]

In the area north of Texas, you should have three things: An extra pair of gloves, a small shovel to get snow away from your wheels, and a container of ice melter salt as you may need to clear out a path around your truck to get out of a slick parking lot. A candle and some matches may be useful as well as a light and heat source in case you are stranded over night.

[@tammykaltreider]

Great list. I swear by Midland emergency radios. If the head lamp stays in the vehicle I keep the batteries out and attached to the strap. That way there are no surprises when needed. We also keep a backpack with an extra change of clothing, socks, gloves, shoes and beanie inside along with other things. #Battalion

[@therealchrisbrown24]

Thank you X! You reminded me to switch out to my winter kit since living in Michigan can be interesting. 😆 🤣 thanks for the reminder!

[@ericsvalland4417]

Ditch the ziptie on the jumper cable(s) and replace it with velcro (hook/loop) tape, emergency triangles and/or road flares, and a portable air compressor. A quart of oil, a gallon of anti-freeze, a gallon of wiper fluid (get the kind that goes below zero), and a pack of auto fuzzes of various sizes and amperages.

[@RBG-tr9ce]

I keep everything in my vehicles that you have listed except the radio. I prefer the Leatherman Wave for a multi tool and 4 gauge jumper cables. I dont scrimp on quality and gathered some great stuff at yard sales throughout the years.

[@jodiejodeena7784]

I would add snacks, water, hand warmers (warmer than gloves), mittens, scarf, hat, and a couple bivys or space blankets. Go battallion!

[@larrymiller6840]

Duct tape, some type of food like power bars or jerky, gloves (work/warm). Knit hat, flares or a triangle reflector

[@wolfman2702]

WNY here. In the winter I keep a tow strap, a fleece banket, extra hats, gloves, and socks, a pair of boots, and hanwarmers, and 2 snow brushes. Year round its several flashlights, first aid and trauma kits, rescue tool, multitool, ratchet straps.

[@dwmedley06]

I like the fact of keeping an ice scraper in the car. But, have one in the house also. Once a year or so we run into ice that makes it almost impossible to get in the car. I learned the hard way and had to use a hair dryer to get in my truck because my ice scraper was in the cab.

[@MikeandIkes_EDC]

Great video! A kit for most people: some gloves, poncho, and a phone charger cabel (if you don't already have one) would be a good idea.

[@seanlawrence972]

An emergency bivy, couple space blankets, water filter/purification tablets/life straw.

[@user-dp4nu3qe2f]

Love the video keep pushing them out u help and keep people informed and it is a great thing your doing and the way u incorporate your wife in the videos y’all give both perspective men’s point and the woman’s point love bro

[@charlesludwig9173]

I’ve been in 5 white out storms, all leading to the interstate I was on closing while I was still on it. What did I learn? First, fill gas tank before any trip over interstate highways and re-fill after using just a quarter tank. Next, when the fog, ice, sleet, or snow begins to confirm the weather report for blizzard weather conditions developing, get off of the interstate and use state highway to get to nearest motel. If motel is booked just remain in parking lot, This is where the wool blanket, water, and an MRE will tie you over. At any rate, this strategy along with the knowledge and equipment needed to change or pump up a tire, as well as a tripe A membership is all that I have needed to eventually get to my destination.

[@CompassCustomCreations]

Great list! I think that a fire extinguisher and blanket are critical but often overlooked items. Wool has the added benefits of keeping you warm even when wet and, just as importantly, not melting when near heat or flame like a poncho liner does. I'm not so sure about the glass breaker. What the world really needs is a $65 combo Glass Breaker, prybar and Bottle Opener in titanium (heck throw in a flashlight function while were at it!)

[@dudeh9702]

Was in my first big car accident this summer. I'm doin better. Two things I wasn't aware of despite being a big prepper/EDC guy for years: 1) Anything you might need after an accident, make sure y'all don't keep it in the glovebox in case it's completely jammed shut (like your glass breaker/seatbelt cutter). That's where I kept my LifeHammer tool. I was T-boned from the passenger side and the glovebox was impossible to get to until weeks later when I cut it open. 2) A lot of newer cars do NOT have tempered glass in the front driver and front passenger windows! They're "laminated" just like the windshield and it'll be impossible to break in an emergency. So recommend y'all check all the windows in your vehicles and make note which say "tempered" and which say "laminated." Also might be a good idea to not just lay your cell phone loosely, because that's gonna go flying in a collision and if you're hurt, can't call 911 if you can't reach your phone. Oh bonus tip: Car broke down in 4 degree Fahrenheit weather 10 years ago, and my blanket was in the trunk, but the act of retrieving my blanket to keep warm caused me to have to exit my car and I was shivering like crazy within 10 minutes. So it might be a balancing act. Modern cars at least the back seats fold down so one doesn't have to leave their car to get stuff from the trunk. Love your channel, Marine X. I laugh at your East Cleveland jokes ngl. Lived in Cleveland around E. 120th area and Euclid for a bit and went to East Cleveland more than I should have and I ain't going back to that entire STATE. God bless. Keep up the EDC vids, already bought a few things cuz of your content. Peace.

[@MarineX]

I lived in E129th and EDDY Road for years

[@macbride33]

Good points

[@campingcotidiano1729]

Muito bom. Saudações do Brasil 🇧🇷

[@bryanp5534]

Great list. Some stuff I haven't thought of like the radio. I have one in my go bag at home but not in the car. I also keep a capable fire starter, some food rations, water, and a get home bag in case my truck is incapacitated and I have to truck it home.

[@OutdoorTony95]

I would add a UCO Chandelier. Along with about 3 extra candles. That would help the situation become more tolerable.🔥👍

[@dav762s]

Not sure how I stumbled apon this channel... then dived into all past videos. Great content.

[@macbride33]

Tire inflator or a jumpstarter with a tire inflator

[@chrisjackson3041]

Just in general... I'm not in the US. I love the way you deliver your content bro.. also you reinforce this is me... sort your own shit! Huge respect

[@kwjr.9569]

Great list!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@user-fe2lr5jw4i]

As someone who lives near the Canadian border in New Hampshire, I can confirm that Texas sometimes gets as cold as it gets here regularly, but the wind is something else in Texas.

[@bayshark7o7]

X wit dat Blanket over him lookin my Mace Windu the prepper Jedi 😆

[@Chubbbs117]

Love theses EDC videos you've been doing.

[@splattamus5528]

I keep an e-tool and a heavy duty tow strap behind the back seat. Never know when I gotta dig or pull someone out of a ditch or snowbank

[@kylelynch7936]

Another great video man. Keep it up.

[@boomdoggy]

Very well presented & articulated! Foxtrot Juliet Bravo🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@PartisanPapa]

Love it. Also, snacks!

[@mateo1726]

Hey do a video on insulating your garage!

[@duanerobinson935]

I drive a Lincoln too. Mrs X has a good head on her shoulders 😂

[@g-man2228]

I’d like to see the Diamond Back rifle holder…Interesting! 👊🏻🇺🇸

[@jeffmartin738]

Nice video. Like that MKC t shirt.

[@calebhathaway2632]

Only thing I think is missing add zip ties and duct tape because I can't count how many times my family said to use zip ties and duct tape to fix something to get it to hold long enough to get to Napa or something like that 550 cord works great too for other things. Maybe your toppers coming off your truck or something or your car 550 cord fix that also maybe like a ET tool that would be nice and then definitely gloves gloves that you could grab something hot with like under the engine unless you have to check something he just pulled over and it's super hot and you could throw a Mylar blanket in there with that will blanket and you be extra toasty warm you could also if you had to cut it up in the small pieces and your duct tape that I mentioned earlier and duct tape that around

[@cheetahlip]

That blanket you linked is 80% wool

[@WildMaverick]

I absolutely always keep 2-way comms in the V, primarily a a midland GTx1000 and a box or bag of salt during winter…

[@nedeastwood4630]

Water or at least something like a Life straw. But mostly bottled Water 💦

[@Raees-Divitiae]

Leather gloves and a leather jacket can replace a wool blanket, should you have allergies to wool. This is from first hand experience, since I've had to live out of a car quite a bunch of times. Those, and UV protected sunglasses are things that are some basics.

[@candicebeebe6688]

I have the same stuff but a Large caliber hand gun is nice. If your stuck on the side of the road or in a parking lot, you never know who's going to show up to Help ( Crazy people ). And a DASH cam !!

[@PhiTonics]

On the subject of car batteries and jumpers you should check out Antigravity Batteries, lithium battery with built in jump starter 👍 Oh.. and I like my alpaca blanket 😉 can't stand wool unless it's Marino 🤣 I'm a baby like that!😅

[@ozzlayer]

I keep water and snacks/protein bars/beef jerky

[@seren1ty755]

I have emergency blankets and Mylar lined ponchos for the rain and cold. Do you have experience with those? Are they good enough or are they crap? I’m wondering if I should get a wool blanket to compliment those items depending on the situation.

[@94slingshot]

Snow brush/scrape, how many times I’ve been in northern Michigan for a weekend when the first snows hit and my brush/scraper is still hanging back home in the garage.

[@LouisianaThibodeaux]

poncho and a woobie and a pair of leather mechanics

[@MrMorgorth]

A Snow Shovel, Tow Rope or means of Towing or been Towed. Make it two or three wool blankets and add in non electronic forms of entertainment for the kids to keep them occupied. Also five litre bottles of anti ice agent or a bag of road salt or grit to try get some traction, change the tyres over to Winter rated tyres may help. Some Energy Drinks and Snacks as while Water is good for you keeping energy levels is also important that way when you reach for the water its hit the point of been an Emergency situation in which might be best to abandon the vehicle to reach somewhere safer like a Hotel, Motel or wherever it is you need to get to. Oh yes a Map of where you are at so you can tell where you are going.

[@Don008Ramon]

Noco makes a better jumper battery

[@mrnickl]

I'd add gloves.

[@johndavidtackett]

Where are your flares bro??? 😉

[@kairitadano]

Might sound noobish but is it okay to keep the jump starter/power bank in the car? I live in tropical country so i worry if it'll bloat and explode

[@hogsmaws]

gas can and fire extinguisher - is high temperatures not a concern for you?

[@elvinvillamor472]

Water and snacks.

[@Jeteye_Mindgames]

Maybe add a mini shovel or axe

[@addicted2tools]

Food and water

[@B.rendaO]

I tried so hard to crank my midland for a charge and it did not hold at all 😢😢😢😢😢

[@indianaboy3166]

7

[@antmck33]

Outside of the obvious, are there any changes or additions anyone would make to a Vehicle if the vehicle were an EV?

[@JDP33]

Socks people just throw on anything

[@bmgtyme2881]

How long do those battery jumper banks last when you're not using them? Does the charge wear out over the months?

[@MarineX]

I think the charge degrades the batteries. I use them, on purpose, every few months

[@rudygarcia2199]

If you are in a vehicle with a radio…why would you need a radio?

[@cyulikeme2]

Dead battery, vehicle is inoperable

[@cryptonaute434]

That bag costs 320€

[@JoshThompson25]

Missing a pewpew

[@gilbert7794]

The AR is of no use in the trailer

[@Boostedcamera_R32]

Rah

[@bayshark7o7]

'It's coming more often" pause.

[@r.mercado9737]

Not not. Semper Fi

[@Swearengen1980]

If you haven't had jumper cables in your vehicle since you got your first ride, you failed as a man; your father failed you.

[@MarineX]

Partially agree. A lot of folks don’t have fathers. Mine died years and years before I’d learn about jumper cables

[@alexmoran2460]

@@MarineXSorry to hear that brother. My bum ass father left when I was 6 months old, so I agree with your statement. I do have jumper cables in all my cars though ☺️😉

[@robertbarbosa4070]

Sad scary little boy.
