Recently I got a hard, tri-fold, town-in cover and it made me realize I can store way more in my bed without worry of theft. Right now I am thinking of going to a surplus store and picking up an A bag that I can strap down to a tie down point. What kinda items do you carry in your car, OR what would you put in your own hypothetical A bag?
My basic EOTW plan involves just sheltering in place, so think what kinda gear I might need to get home, not necessarily 'survive for weeks on end without resupply'.
My basic kit is a “get home” bag since I, too, would be sheltering in place. That being said I keep a pack in my trunk with what I would need if I had to walk home. I have several bottles of water, Clif bars, first aid kit, lightweight bivvy, multitool, fixed blade knife and a lightweight rain jacket. In the winter I make sure I have gloves, toboggan and an extra jacket. On a normal day the furthest I would have to walk home is 25 miles so I really don’t need a ton of stuff to carry.
