    No wonder America is so fcked.

    Everyone's worried about shooting everyone else while drunk and well fed.

    Me and my must-haves are all about getting out and away from problems instead of going columbine on the world.

    I drive a Miata.
    As does mine. Try putting an inflator, plug kit, jump pack, first aid kit, sunglasses, and windshield sunshade in a Miata, all without occupying trunk space or interfering with the roof mechanism.

    My garage door opener had to be clipped to the lower door sill.

    Let's just say that if law enforcement asks for my insurance and registration card, they are going to see a "hold my purse" ordeal. :anonymous::anonymous:

    It’s not the legal gun owners in the world that make our society the way it is..It’s the sick narrow minded idiots that ended up that way from bad upbringing and to much drugs. I carry my gun because I legally can and we go shooting 2 or 3 times a week..strapping one of my weapons on is just like putting my wallet in my back pocket. Comes natural and we never start a confrontation or the like. All my friends (And I have a lot) CC in some way..none of us have ever had a problem with doing stupid shit..I cherish my LTC as much as my drivers license. I’ve had my LTC almost 50 years

    Fyi, the homelink mirror is amazing for this!

    I installed a gentex v3 in my old ranger specifically so I didn't need to deal with an extra button on the visor

    Honestly yeah, just this (assuming your battery is good and your spare and its hardware are all functional).

    Depending on where I'm going, I like a good come-along and some spare water and protein bars too.

    Throw two CAT tourniquets in there for 100x multiplier on effectiveness. Get the genuine ones from a legit source. Literal life saver. Seen it work personally.

    Or maybe it's smart to prioritize items that are important when seconds matter?

    Gun in console, trauma pack attached to rear of my headrest, fire extinguisher in rear driver door, and in bed of truck.
