    personally I found a few items useful as a every day driver kit. there are no tow straps in case you get stuck and some stranger stops to offer help, no jumper cables, no tire plug kits in case your spare is flat or gets a puncture on the way. This kit would be useful to me only as a daily carry, hiking, or biking. Also I find bics are more reliable than refillable lighters as the fuel tends to dry out before I get a chance to use it and it's more space for the fuel.

      Yeah, for an “everyday” kit he sure has a lot of scenario specific gimmicks.
      It seems a lot of prepper types are as prone to audience capture and larping as any other community.
      A powerbank/jumper/inflator, and tow strap should be in every car, along with a basic med/stop-bleed kit and an auto club card for assistance is all you need. Gimmicky lights and one time use tools are little more than lifestyle purchasing. A form of virtue signaling.

      Agreed it's a useless kit, I believe rope and heavy duty ratcheting straps is a must in a car kit, jumper cables with a one time battery pack, knipex cobra pliers and a socket set, heavy duty trash bags, work gloves, good blanket and pillow in case you are stranded for a night. The flashy item I have is the rescue tool victorinox multitool that has seat belt cutter, glass cutter and glass breaker.

    I would advise you to carry a big trash bag; you fold it and hardly adds volume or weight but it is very useful, specially a heavy duty one like a construction bag. You can use it as a spare poncho for a second person just making a hole for the head, you can use it to prevent water damage to electronics in case you arrive somewhere while is raining, you could use it to carry things, you could use it as a blanket to not get dirty if you ever need to get down your car, you could use it to vomit in case of illness or car sickness, etcetera. For the volume cost (basically nothing), heavy duty plastics bags are extremely useful.

    Subaru. Good choice sir. Sad to see it suffers the same illness as my Mazda: no storage-area for EDD-stuff whatsoever. (my old nissan was GREAT in that matter) ALSO: a great kit! :-) i would add some working-gloves (if you don't store them with the emergency-vest (if you need one in the states, we have to carry those things now in europe)) - eg if you have to lift or move some tree-stuff or roadpizzas or something out of the way on the road...

    One of my favorites (rather than the usb-a to usb-c adapter and a thumb drive) is a compact USB adapter kit with built in memory card reader and storage. It's a flat-sided stick with a short usb-c cable plus adapters to usb-a, micro-usb, and apple lightning. You can mix and match adapters to handle many mismatched connection needs. I see a version with a very long name - "BUDI Multifunctional 9 in 1 Data Cable with USB Type-C Card Reader Micro SD Memory Card high-Speed Card Reader Adapter Suitable for Mobile...".

Streamlight, Surefire, Leatherman, etc have the tools built for the things you need to worry about.

And then shortly after I was driving by a multi car accident that had 2 of 3 lanes blocked before any emergency response crews showed up and there was someone standing in the middle of the road trying to direct traffic. So I will definitely be adding some kind of reflective equipment very soon.

    The formulation of WD40 has been disclosed, in accordance with legal requirements in the EU and other markets. It is a light mineral oil with a carbon range C9 to C11 dispersed in a hydrocarbon solvent. It is intended by the manufacturer as, a lubricant, a water dispersant, rust preventer and penetrating fluid (to help release corroded screw threads). Yes, it leaves a residue - it would be useless if it didn’t.
    As a classic car owner, I believe It is worthy of inclusion in an automotive tool kit, since, in my experience, a large proportion of automotive problems can be solved with a little judicious lubrication.
