Don't forget a few simple things for your vehicle!

What about changing a flat? Have you actually taken out your spare tire, tire wrench and jack to make sure it all works properly? What about jumper cables? Maybe a headlamp so you can see what you're working on? A can of fix-a-flat? Some extra anti-freeze or oil? A small set of hand tools?

The majority of problems that render your vehicle inoperable can be fixed by yourself, without too much trouble.

If anyone hasn't used/made one of these...do it. Very easy make out of aluminum cans and easy to use-invaluable.
