I hope that with all those spare ignition parts, you have a spare crank sensor also, that lil bugger will leave you stranded.
No, I don't have
one... I have
TWO both that I've actually RUN to
verify the little bastards work. also a Spare IAC, TPS, IAT, ACT
and spare relays and fuses.
as well as spare fuel pumps (TWO) a spare fuel tank selector valve
and a spare selector switch.
I HAVe needed a selector valve.
I've needed a fuel filter any number of times, and ONCE I blew out an oil filter... So guess what else is in my spares box?
This is just for driving around or for your Camel Trophy team? Everyone seriously has all this stuff in their truck all the time?
You break down, jump out, set up a perimeter, put up your aluminm heat shelter, fill some sand bags, start digging a well, wire up some flash-bangs and a few Claymores, then call AAA and when the wrecker is 15 minutes out, pop smoke and start laying out suppressive fire while he hooks up. Then, you have the Sandys drop napalm while you bug out.
Isn't like a cellphone and an credit card enough for daily survival in the moderately developed parts of North America?
Frankly after dustoff I prefer to nuke the site from orbit just to be sure....
And as for sandbags and supressing fire?
I prefer camo net to hide me from casual observation
amd why would I shoot first and reveal my position
unnecissarily?
Seriously though. not all parts of north america are "developed"
I know of places here in "Developed" PA that even if there was a
helicopter on standby just to rescue your ass you are still going
to be waiting a while.
a 45minute wait can kill an accident victim who would survive
a 20minute wait.
Ever cross Iowa or Nebraska during a blizzard?
You can freeze to death in only a few hours.
I've only needed rescue ONCE and that was only because I killed
my trucks engine (and when I say "killed" I mean the only thing to
be done was an autopsy to determine how badly fukt shit really was.
I did it during a flood that was a declared disaster, I was "safe",
but stranded and actually used my com gear to talk to a coast
guard helo to tell them, that "No things weren't nearly bad enough
to take a ride in their f'ing fling wing flyer, I was simply stuck, not in
any actual danger".They confirmed I was 75feet above the projected
flood crest.
As for "Crap to carry" there's some gear I carry for others.
Like a fleece blanket that I got from salvation army for 4bucks.
I'm perfectly willing to let an accident victim soak it in blood
after which I won't want it back....
I had another blanket just like it that I rescued from the trunk
of a junk car and washed it myself that ended it's exsistance as
bio-waste after it was used on another accident victim.
Yes, I keep a certain ammount of "emergency gear" that I am fully
prepared to simply walk away from.... I have more.
But you should see what I load on when I'm going out KNOWING I
might get into trouble....
BTW, credit cards are nice...
IF you have one.
as for cellphone chargers? Only ONE?
Those things break too, I have TWO, both are factory "Rapid chargers", Both my phones can use the same battery
and I have a spare battery for each of them.
I have redundancy for my redundancy.
when planning for survival "Paranoid enough?" is a valid question.
And though this may sound odd sanitary napkins and even tampons, skinny ones. their original use was to plug bullet
wounds. And for more mundane purposes you can make
a woman in need grateful.
Non Lubricated condoms are included in every military survival kit, not because they expect you to satisfy some lusty native girl
when you are shot down, but because they can be used to waterproof things (notes, matches, etc)
OR simply used to store drinking water....
