This week’s video I wanted to touch a bit on Survival systems. I get asked a lot to do more videos on survival subjects. They all want to know what I keep in my EDC, my bags, and in my vehicles. I preach that your best weapon & tool will always be the knowledge that you have up in your “brain housing box.” That said, it does help to have certain items, to make bad situations more bearable.
So, this week’s video will cover what I recommend you keep (at a minimum) in all the vehicles that your family has. To show that I “practice what I preach,” I am showing the bag that is kept in the trunk of my daughter’s car. Below you’ll find Amazon links to most of the items, to save you time hunting.
Old Book Bag (I used last year’s school bag)
Life Hammer- (Window Punch and seatbelt cutter) Buy these direct from Joe "The Knife Guy" 215-947-0200 or email him at jtraurig@verizon.net and don't forget to mention I sent you.
SPARE FUEL (Prototype: Seriously, this stuff was designed in the 1980s, but never took off. They are currently looking for new investors. If you have money and are interested in investing, please reach out to Jim, at Jhoch@koakonsulting.com)
First Aid- (Basic Small Kit, that I then plus up from my own First Aid supplies)
amzn.to/2AxiJ1t
I then stuff that plastic box into a good IFAK (I like RED, for ease to finding), along with all the good trauma gear that I covered in our IFAK video (found in video archive)
Red IFAK amzn.to/2Kj6iFZ
Battery Jump Starter (Don’t skimp… Get a good set)-amzn.to/2n1Fnp9
Tire Inflator-amzn.to/2NX9Jo0
Tire plug kit- (I then put this into the tire inflator case)
amzn.to/2O4Js7l
Emergency food rations- (Get the Coast Guard approved versions)
amzn.to/2McqOtY
Space Blanket (Big Heavy-weight version)
amzn.to/2AwVjcn
Glock E-Tool- (I love this thing)
amzn.to/2At2Clz
550 Cord (Need I say more?)-
amzn.to/2McrlvY
Hand warmers
amzn.to/2v6x4No
Leatherman Wave
amzn.to/2KiDm0U
Toilet Paper Travel Roll (or 3)
amzn.to/2NZAubE
Water Purification
amzn.to/2O4mg9q
Ponchos (Trash Bags work better for me, but not the girls)
amzn.to/2O3ynn8
Hand Sanitizer
amzn.to/2Kf0Unu
Old Sneakers (Buy new Hiking Shoes and put current ones in Bag, while they still fit)
That about covers it. I know there a tons more items to have in case of an emergency. Hell, my Jeep only gets 12.7 miles to the gallon of fuel, because of all the emergency gear I have inside. However, my daughter doesn’t need a high-lift jack or a CB radio. Her number one tool will still always be using her head and the knowledge that we have taught her. That, and having her father on Speed Dial.
Thanks for watching. Strength & Honor, TR.

just a simple but overlooked hack but if you are in a situation where the vehicle is stuck your floor mats can be used for tire traction.

First, old school Ranger trick for the 550 cord, do the donut thing as it prevents 550 cord from getting tangled, also on the longer Bic lighter, you can tape several feet of 100 mph tape as a handy small dispenser. Picked that up from the Brits, can't take credit for it.

@AnonymousMontanantoo 6 лет назад

Also, small packs of Baby wipes, not the hard cases, the soft type w/ 20 to 40 wipes each. Keep it sealed and it has an exceedingly long pack life. Also, any of the Mainstay/Lifeboat Ration Bars in foil, the foil is thin and punctures easily, simply by rubbing against other items in the kit. Put them inside the heavy duty Ziplok freezer bags, and they are both protected and you have an impromptu canteen !! You guys rock!!

@jlg8689 5 лет назад

Headlamps better than a flashlight, it frees your hands and most weigh less than the flashlight you already have

Yeah, if you were really serious about being ready for every single scenario you wouldn't have any space at all. You just need essentials to help get you through the night or emergency.

@itsamysticlife3500 5 лет назад

Wow, Great info - thanks for all of the thought and work put into making and sharing. Regional differences need to be part of the considerations on what to pack. My Florida kit was very different than my Wyoming kit. Umbrellas are a necessity in Florida (for repelling rain, snakes, feral dogs and pigs), but die an ugly death in a Wyoming storm (winds that take down fences). Also, towns and people are a lot closer in urban areas, whereas in Wyoming & rural areas you could hours from the nearest people. Always let someone know where you're going and when you're gonna get there, and then call them to let them know you arrived. When I moved to Wyoming, some co-workers warned me to keep a winter emergency kit in my vehicle year round - they had to postponed their 4th of July fireworks show for 3 weeks due to almost 3 inches of snow. My kit up there had a coffee can of cat litter and a scoop (for traction on ice and snow; a can with homemade 3 wick candle with plastic snap on lid; 2 cans of sterno; strike anywhere kitchen matches (because Bic lighters don't work well in freezing temps); enamel cups; and some food (cup a soup, ramen, and chocolate bars). Blankets were bungeed over seats as seat covers, TP/kleenex & 8 trash bags (raincoat/windbreaker or groundcloth/sleeping bag were under one seat, color/activity books & crayons were under another seat, as well as several pairs of men's wool tube socks (for keeping feet warm after removing wet shoes).. Safety pins were hooked onto zipper tabs of armrest covers, scissors along with reflective & duct tape were kept in door pockets. Also, each member of our family had a backpack to keep their daily stuff contained and with them wherever they went. We usually had some sorts of snacks, container of water, flashlight, knife and jacket inside, along with whatever else we each needed. All of this besides my normal auto repair tools and car care gear, cause a single mom has to be able to handle lots of different events. Check your vehicle for little tuck spots inside, cause sometimes you can't get out to retrieve your emergency gear, especially if you have small kids (they tend to panic if you get out of their sight in scary situations). Anyway, good luck in your travels and remember "failure to plan is planning to fail". Stuff happens and you usually don't get a memo forewarning that its gonna happen.

@skeptic9876 3 года назад

perhaps outside the remit of the bag but i also carry a small ABC fire extinguisher (1kg) in my trunk. Now on my second one as I used the 1st one to help a truck driver whos cab had caught fire. The part between the cab and the trailer. Looked like the insulation had caught fire. It was a great feeling being able to help he was on his way with a container to a nearby stream to collect water to try and put the fire out. I dealt with it in 3 seconds. He was so grateful :)

@susanbritcher 6 лет назад

Great video. I just love that your kids know how to use all this stuff, a lot of kids these days would struggle to even know where the jack is or how to hook up jumper cables let alone the rest, my niece and nephews think the only thing you need to know in an emergency is Mum or dads phone number. Knowledge will always be your best weapon. So so true

@TacticalRifleman 6 лет назад

Son is 22 and still learning slowly. Daughter hates Dad trying to make every situation a "Class." Still, you have to keep pushing them. Even if they don't know how to use it; if they have the gear, you can talk them through it over the phone. Thanks for watching, TR

@theodorossarafis7370 3 года назад

Hi karl great presentation and i am glad that i have the moajority of the stuff you mention. I would add 1. spare tire (many cars do not have one) with a jack. 2. flashlight, 2 flares, sponge to clean the windshield, a bottle of water for cleaning the windshield or to add in the fridge, a bennie hat and a pair of gloves, a powerband for charging the cell phone (ok you have the other battery for the car), ducked tape (saves lives) and finally reflective vests one for each passenger. they do not take much space and are very handful.

@johncraig3345 6 лет назад

From the perspective of a woman living in rural NW Montana-- I keep a special gear bag for wintertime that contains much of what you include, and I add the following: snow pants, a wool cap, heavy gloves, and outdoor boots comfort rated to 20 below. If I am going to/from town and get stuck in a snowstorm, or I have to get out and walk, I have the gear that will keep me warm in the vehicle or out walking. I also keep an old winter coat and a piece of rug, in case I need to put chains on the tires. And a headlamp is a must for all of the above! Thanks, Karl!

@TacticalRifleman 6 лет назад

John (sexy name by the way), I agree 100% with your recommendations. Male or female; you should always adjust your EDC/Vehicle gear to reflect the current weather/situation. I have 4 compressed sleeping bags that go into the trunks of all 4 vehicles. Thanks for watching, TR

@reginaeatsplants4932 5 лет назад

Pads, tampons, diapers, duct tape, work gloves, and latex gloves. Once, I was driving home, and I pulled up on an accident. I didn't have a first aid kit, but I did have duct tape, pads, and latex gloves. With those three things, and a bit of creativity, I was able to help. I know a lot of men don't think about hygiene products, but they are great to have, just in case. The inside part is incredibly absorbent, and, as I showed while using them, very versatile. Nowadays, I carry a few more things, but I always have the above in my car.

The problem with water is that during the summer it will go bad due to the heat inside the vehicle. Also plastic bottles, and even metal ones have a micro plastic lining, will release chems in the water that are known to cause cancer over extended use. The purification tabs are a much better option.

@sebastienbolduc5654 5 лет назад

@@SteveVi0lence I wonder if there are any emergency water packages on the market that are safe to store in high temperature areas? I carry a Sawyer Mini in my hiking kit but can't leave it in my car due to it being sensitive to heat. The heat can affect the membrane of the filter; thus, reducing its lifespan. A filter is way better option than purification pills. The truth about the pills, iodine, is that it's gonna make the water test like sh#t! It's not easy drinking that stuff. Not sure about the BPA being the end all be all. I'm sure there are other chems within plastic that can be harmful over time but we are not aware of them, yet. I'm not all paranoid about the cancer risk thing but it does get hot as heck in a car! But ya, most definitely keep a BPA one if you do. A thermos is actually a freak'n great idea!!! Never thought about that one before. Now that you mentioned it, I may get one for that very purpose. Smart!

@inspired4more 5 лет назад

Very practical. I always keep a couple spare tshirts and some gym shorts. They can be used for rags too, but mostly it's so if you are dressed up and have to change a tire or work under the hood, you don't have to ruin your good clothes. Also a cheap tarp or trash bag to lay on the ground when changing tires in the mud, or transporting dirty materials. Doesn't take up much space, but it's been useful. I once used the tarp draped over the hood to keep me dry while changing an alternator in the rain.

@hereticaljake740 4 года назад

Great call with the Glock E-Tool. Tremendously better than the Emergency shovel I've used for the last two years, especially in dense snow.

@ericwolf5874 6 лет назад

I drive a sports coupe with a small trunk and I have found that a lot of the items you have in the bag can fit with the spare tire. I put vehicle stuff like the tire plug kit, jump battery, and air compressor in the spare tire well with very little problem. You'll be surprised at just how much room is under and around the spare tire. Not only does it ensure that the breakdown items are with the vehicle, it tidied up the trunk. This would also free up space in the bag for seasonal clothes or rain gear. Then the bag would be mostly for the personal situations, from boo boos, to need of TP, to food. A couple of things I keep in my gear is duct tape and silicone tape. The silicone tape is good for leaking hoses (make sure to stretch it a little bit when using it) and duct tape can hold the world together. A good whistle because you can blow it for hours longer than you can scream and I can be heard farther. A few heavy black trash bags, like 550 cord they can be used for many things from a makeshift poncho all the way to just holding trash. Next on my additions would be a set of mechanics gloves and a set of heavy leather gloves. I have had gear like this in my vehicles since I could drive. I have saved my bacon more times that I can count just by having the right gear with me. Love the gear for everyday as well as the SHTF day... got to hope for the best but plan for the worst and be ready for all the stuff in-between.

By keeping a couple of minutes vehicle, first you have something to pad items when you're hauling things oh, but they also make an excellent emergency blanket. Because they're so cheap oh, you don't mind if they get torn up or dirty oh, so use them to help protector keep your vehicle clean, or even throw on the ground if you need to crawl underneath the car.

@jeepcreepit5404 5 лет назад

Some states say it's against the law to carry a fixed blade knife in the car. You hardly see this mentioned. I was going to be in the state of Michigan for two months and just happen to check. I keep a Gerber fixed blade (B Grills) survival knife with my cars "get me home" bag, and a shelter in place bag. I find it hard to fathom that you can't have one of these in your car, stowed in another bag and it be illegal.

@TacticalRifleman 5 лет назад

Laws of Interstate Travel protect you from stupid shit like that, so long as you are just “passing through “ to another state that also allows such items. Understand that they can still charge you, but you will win in court. Legal fees will be way more than the cost of your knife

Lifestraw (water filter straw) if you don't have a container. Um 1 or 2 gallons of purified water. I stress on water because you can only go maybe 2-3 days without it. Yet, food you can last about 1-2 weeks without it. A paper map of your state and a compas, god forbid all electronics go down. A spare key that only opens the vehicle mounted somewhere underneath should you or your spouse lock the car with the keys in.

@JoeyIndolos 6 лет назад

Thanks for another practical video. Very good balance between missing something vital and overstuffing the trunk. You definitely have to just keep in mind what exactly it is that you're packing for. I was also surprised at how much would still be applicable to me here in a tropical country. The only thing I'd omit is just the hand warmers, but even then they'd still be useful if I was marooned in a flood by one of our many yearly typhoons. LOL at the "Toilet Paper Travel Roll (or 3)" in your write-up. In our own cars, maybe just the one. But this is your daughter's car, so "or 3" would be more appropriate :)

I honestly have never made a comment on RU-vid before, but I personally know how important it is to have a kit of some kind for your family. When I was 18 my at the time high school sweetheart had a blow out on the side of the road and she called me for help. Not to put to much out there in respect of her I'll say a man approached her on the side of the road that night with looks of good but thoughts of bad as she was waiting for me to arrive from my workplace I had just left from to come help. I'm not saying she was raped and I'm not saying that she didn't shoot the man either just saying that the man had intention to do bad and harm her. I was 18 so I was very new to being a man in society as well as being a man in a relationship. Looking back I'd would have had her call the nearest tow truck or a friend of hers close by to at least come sit with her and be in a running vehicle with more than just her. So I definitely respect your efforts on this video and for providing it, and I definitely wasn't aware of the "spare fuel" product or the spring loaded window punch. Only thing I'll add to this is 3 things. The tire changing kit. I put a aluminium jack and Jack stand (light weight reasons for aluminum) and I'm 4th generation farmer so I've need for battery impacts so I put one in the kit as well to stay with a socket for lug nut size, battery terminal size and tire let down. I then get under the vehicle with two cans of spray paint (yellow & red) and mark where the jack goes and the jack stand goes for each individual tire. Not a big mark but one that can be found if one is looking for it. Painted the jack & jack stand blaze orange but the piece that connects to the vehicle is painted with the same color that it's supposed to match with under the car. I use yellow and red to explain the jack to use with caution and do not take off tire until the red jackstand has been placed to stop the car. The spare wheel is marked with numbers to make sure they cross tighten and retighten afterwards (so example if it's a 5 hole wheel one lug nut hole would have 1&6 marked aboved it). Other than that I put a old yoga mat in there that my girlfriend consider it needs replacing so she doesn't have to lay down and get glass or be burned from hot asphalt changing a tire. Of course I have them call me still but I don't want them waiting for me faster it's done faster they are safe and if I'm close enough that she was only able to get the jack out that makes it easier on me as a whole.

Great video!! lots of good stuff! i like the jump starter that can charge a cell phone, i carry one in my car as well. I would also add a burner phone to your kit with important numbers programmed. I say that because it happened to me on a 9 hour trip. long story short, my phone broke and i needed to make a important call. so now, i carry a old style flip phone with 500 mins on it. just food for thought. Again, great video!! keep up the good work!

Carlos Jesena; in the mode of tough love... This discomfort you are feeling, is the ''Masculine'' struggling to escape the oppressive millenneum shell that has you pissed off. For some, it can be defeated in an 8 week period. But for you & your plea to be re-lie-ved of the disagreement... then there exists a target rich hope, that you will in time, become assimilated into the masculinty of a warrior against their true shell binding oppressor.

Cars don't do any good when there's remote kill switches and EMPs to think about. Best to make plans that don't involve electronics and computers. Unless you have a very early 80s car or older, of course.

Maybe a can of fix a flat instead of a patch kit. Might be more simple.

I've had Fix-a-flat fail on me before. First time, no biggie. Second time, I quit relying on it.

@marshallee7209 6 лет назад

what was the point of failure? I may consider changing to a patch kit then.

Kitty Litter, matches in a waterproof match container, knife, map of the area [at least a road map] compass, a canteen, metal cup and small stove set like the British army canteen set [see Knife Country. USA] and alcohol based fuel tabs. This allows for the prep of a hot drink or even soup. Warm socks and high quality 1 gallon zip lock bags that you can wear over your socks so if your feet get wet [like when walking in the snow in last years sneakers] your feet and socks stay dry. On the really nice to have side, an old cashmere sweater against your skin is remarkably effective at making you warm fast.

@TacticalRifleman 9 месяцев назад

Yep, there's a huge list of great things to have in your daughter's trunk... However, if you make the bag too big, they'll find an excuse to leave it at home. After all these years, this bag (while updated) is still in my daughter's car. Thanks for watching, TR

Those tiny jump boxes r junk. They jump a vehicle maybe once and after 3 months theyre garbage even if u spend 500 bucks on 1. Call a tow truck bc newer cars batteries die for a reason it aint gonna run if it dies enough to kill a battery

They are both in my vehicles. However, there are just too many “great” items to add to this kit, that it would be too big and they would move it out of the trunk when I wasn’t looking. This small bag, to this day, is still in my daughters car. Thanks for watching, TR

Yep, there are hundreds of "nice to have items", like maps, gloves, triangle hazard signs. However, there is only so much room in the trunk before they will leave it all out, claiming the need for trunk space while shopping. Keeping it to the basics is all I do. Thanks for watching. TR

How about a candle and lighter for extra heat if there is a blizzard. Set it in the passenger floorboard and it will heat your car all night.

Lighters shouldn’t be stored in cars but matches are a great choice, good catch

@DD-kc5pw 2 года назад

Now you’ve got me thinking. A good plasma lighter would be fine. The thing I concern myself with the most is storing a lithium battery for my phone in my bag. I’ve never had any issues with high quality battery packs but it’s a concern.

One thing I've thrown in my jeep and I'm going to in my fiancee's car is a fire log. I know it's kinda big and bulky and yes impractical but if you stuck and it's cold cant find anything to burn its 4 to 8 hours of fire depending on what one you buy. Just wondering your thoughts on that

@TacticalRifleman 5 лет назад

I like your thought process. However, you can make a candle, in a 6” shoe polish tin, with 6 wicks, that will heat the inside of a vehicle for 36 hours. To use your fire log you must be outside. Perhaps carry both
