Cobra Tools to keep in the Trunk?

Just about everything has been posted. An AAA card is very handy with an assortment of cash. I try to carry a fold up chair, but it doesn't always fit. I also carry a 25" long breaker bar...for multiple reasons.

A ground cover so you can lay under the car over and over again and fix.

I may have missed it, but a flashlight can be a lifesaver. Not fun getting stuck in the dark without a light. And considering the Cobra heritage, i.e. Joseph Lucas, I've made good use of a jumper wire, not jumper cables. Take two.

The only thing I carry in the trunk is two soft folding chairs. I used to carry a flat blade screwdriver, but since I put in new metering blocks I have had no use for it. I don't travel to far from my house and I do have a AAA card with the 100 mile tow package, but I would get my own trailer from my house and have someone wait with the car before I let it go on a tow truck.

I guess if you are taking long trips you might be in a differenet situation. In my jeep I carry everything you could imagine, but I also take it way out on trails in the desert. Every situation is different.
