What do you need and what is worth carrying in the car? And in what condition do you keep the trunk?
If you read wise guides, it looks like you need to carry a real warehouse of things in the car. Some are obvious and obligatory, others will be useful to us once a Russian year ( 1 Russian year - 25 years ).
warning triangle - you know, it has to be
first aid kit - also, although it is usually rotten and useless
a fire extinguisher - I do, but it is out of date
spare bulbs - I have been taking them recently because the positional ones at the back are burned out, the small W5W ones, I take them to replace them if necessary
reflective vest - this is the one I always have with me, not only in the car. You don't even know how many situations it comes in handy
brushes, ice scrapers, and lock defroster
This, of course, is not the end of the list. There must be a jack, a wheel wrench, and some basic tools. And maybe some more liquids for refills. The one for the washer is for sure, and maybe an oil bubble, at least one liter. And a tow rope, because you never know. Water tap, the trunk will not be enough for us soon.
Many times I took photos of used cars from different people, and just as many times I was shocked by the condition of the trunks. Only the so-called dziada with baba, but there were soap and jam. Ie. many of these trunks were so full of unnecessary things that it was almost impossible or time-consuming to pull out the necessary ones if necessary. I also doubt whether the owners and owners knew exactly what they have. This is not entirely my case, I am stunting carrying unnecessary things in the car like a plague and, despite the protests, I throw out everything that should not travel with us. A trunk is intended to carry luggage, not to be used as a warehouse.
How is it in your case?
Do you have full "gear" with you, or do you limit yourself to the triangle? Do you sometimes carry something superfluous and non-motorized in your trunk?
