I'm seriously looking for a new job already and my first day is tomorrow.

Anyway, some good things to keep in a Jeep would be baby wipes and toilet paper. Never wanna be without TP around.

I've carried a knife or a leatherman everyday since I was 16, I'd feel naked without one. It's a tool!

What isn't a weapon in the hands of the right person?

I agree with you 200 percent. It doesn't feel normal not having those tools. Same feeling after I traded my conceal carry. This job is an unarmed security job.

Personally I like to keep a small tool box a tow strap, bumper jack (until I get a hi-lift), a couple bottles of fluids and about 30 feet of chain under the seat with the bottle jack. And a flash light and spot light of course.

I'm pretty bad at keeping stuff in my jeep unless I'm going on a decent drive, or to an offroad park. Really need to pick up a hi lift and another toolbox since my last one got ruined in my roll over in the last jeep.

Normally I have a spare with no jack (Smart right?)
Screw drivers
Vicegrips
Gps, phone cords ect..
BFH
and some fluids.

When I go more then just my normal daily commutes I usually cary

Spare, jack, lug wrench, spare lugs, bfh, assortment of wrenches and sockets, pry bar, smaller hammer, torx bits, pliers, all fluids, jumper cables, alternator, serpentine belt, DMM, bungy cords, ratchet straps, zip ties, water, flash lights, and more I can't think of
