    Great video 10/10. Just a friendly notice I am a certified Ford technician. All batteries with a black sticker on top, means it’s the original one that was equipped with the vehicle,(meaning it’s never been replaced).might want to get that looked at since batteries only last 3-4 years

      6 years strong! I should probably get a new battery though…

    Good list. I like to throw a cordless impact and socket set in as well. Makes removing/reinstalling lug nuts a breeze.

    Great tips. I would add that I wouldn't trust a jump box alone. Even if you have one, always good to have cables as well just in case.

      @@igorrosales1799 I'm general, but what I mean is that a jump box is another battery, and batteries die. By all means get one, but also carry a set of decent jumper cables just in case.

    Great travel tips (including a stop at Buc-ee's). I never remember to check my spare before I take a long drive. Safe travels!

    Y’all are the safest people on the road.
    My current list:
    1. Gas
    2. Tires
    3. Oil
    Good to go!

    Bring a jump box. Cables require another car that might not be availible

      how much does it cost? which model do you recommend?

    I like to carry about $10 in quarters because there is always that unknown toll booth that pops up on every road trip. Oh, and condoms and duct tape can come in handy too.
    Get your mind out of the gutter and read a common survival guide!
    Although, if you go into any Walmart and buy condoms, duct tape, and a shovel, they will escort you out of the store and put you on a list.

    I have the same battery tester you have. If your battery says it's OK but needs charging, it needs to be replaced.

    You point out the power steering fluid, but that's the brake fluid resovior.
