    They are cool...plenty videos YouTube of them putting out different types of fires like vehicles, gas, electric, propane, etc.

    just another way to limit the weight....which we know is so precious on these Tacoma’s

    I don't do a lot of trail running these days, but here's my basic tool roll I keep on the passenger side storage bin behind the seat. Also the 2' pipe "breaker bar" that fits over the socket wrench pretty well. Also a basic FAK, fire extinguisher, jumper, tow strap, ratchet straps, and air compressor are onboard.

    I think I have most of my bases covered, anything else you'd add for a no-crazy-adventures-right-now tool roll?

    I might toss in a short breaker bar to use with your pipe instead of the ratchet. I’ve broken the gears inside the head doing that very thing.

    Road flares - reminds me of my dad, who carried some ancient flares under the passenger seat of every vehicle he ever drove. Only time I ever saw one used was when I doubted any of those crumbling flares would ever light. To my recollection, they partially worked.

    I’m not sure how long they stay good for. Mine are expired but in good shape and sealed packages. I don’t carry them for their intended use necessarily. Fifteen minutes of flame will start a fire a lot easier than a match or lighter if needed.
