Daily driver everyday carry.

Tools, straps small for tie down and large for towing, jumper cables, 1/2 pull handle for breaking some lugs, machete, small ax, fire extinguisher, knife with seatbelt cutter, flashlight, scangauge 2 for monitoring trans temp, makarov 9mm, fuses, and finally my rocket launcher for clearing traffic.

 

I can get behind the rocket launcher cause NY traffic is the fucking worst.

 

I’m aware. I’m from upstate originally. The laws are tight and county regulated. It gets easier in some places, pistol permit, not the cc, but that’s only for that specific county.

 

And camper shell and i still get 25 to 26 mph on interstate driving.

 

It’s such a joke. PA is a lot better. I walked into an agway and they had ARs on the shelf cash and carry

 

Fireworks stores on the border of pa, you can only buy with an out of state license, and they are illegal in the neighboring state.

 

If you live somewhere where downed trees are a lot you know an axe ain’t helping haha. Either it’s small enough to pull off the road or large enough you should carry a chainsaw.

 

I prefer two bottles jacks

 

Mounted on the hood right?

 

To quote my favorite Canadian, “sometime you’ve gotta piss with the cock you’ve got”

 

Just lean em on the windshield to hold the wipers down.

 

Even Upstate? I had always thought it was it was non-existent in NYC but not an issue everywhere else (concealed carry)

 

Certain areas are a bit better, but it’s when your out in the real boonies that you’ll find that type of thing, from what I know anyway, maybe things have changed.

I have a tool bag I throw in the truck when camping, going off road or bugging out. I have plenty of camping and backpacking gear that can also be quickly thrown in. Ammo pouch, 556 and G19 also would be added

I also live in a free state with open carry, car carry, concealed carry and constitutional carry. My permit is good in 36 states and I don't care to go to the other 14.

Truck has rock sliders and skid plates. Never know when you might have to jump curbs or rioters.

Most of this stuff is for other people in need, I haven't needed any of this stuff for myself yet.

 

All jokes aside (and damn, you guys are funny as shit with threads like this), I only commute maybe 10 miles a day. If the SHTF, I dont have much time on the road before I'm home. In addition to normal recovery stuff like cables, straps, etc, I keep some essentials in the truck, in two bins under the Diamondback bin. If I need the full length of the bed, they slide out pretty easily.
