    this is part of my "prepared" list... mostly not offroad use though, but being on oahu, we don't have too many off road areas.
    Sub'd this thread for good ideas! =)

    headlamp
    3 traffic cones
    HIGH VISIBILITY VEST
    a 35mile waterproof 2-way-radio (my girlfriend has the other one)
    portable air pump
    1-2 gallons of water in an arizona iced tea bottle (not to drink)
    tow strap
    wrench and socket set
    zip ties
    Standard (flat head) screw drivers
    ductape
    a routinely charged optima red top battery (left over since 2009 from my other truck)
    jumper cables
    first aid kit
    toilet paper
    paper towel roll
