Tremor in cab stored Essentials?

[Jking]

I have used my 1000A jump starter at least 20 times (very successfully) in the past year, I recently bought the 2000A unit when I knew I was buying the 7.3L Tremor. Thankfully, it got my Kubota started after the 1000A unit failed several times. I had to bury one of my dogs, it was a cold day and the tractor had been sitting for a few months. No real way to get jumper cables to it due to how and where it's parked. They keep their charge for many months, most of the time they will have the charge you need when you need them... but when you do use them, recharge them to 100% at that time. I've started 3 cars in a single day with my 1000A unit, not sure if I could have done a 4th.
Funny story, but I left my wallet at home one day ... I was running on fumes and a lady had a dead battery at the pumps. I ended up trading her a jump start for $5 so I could get enough gas to get home. Wasn't trying to rip her off, just needed to get home grab my wallet and come back again. No worry about sparks with these units.

Thats interesting. It seems like being old makes me out of touch with battery technology. They sound better than I would have thought. Its no problem to remember to charge it after you use it. Its just hard to remember to charge it if you haven't used it. I will look more closely at these. Thanks for the info.

Is that so you can wipe the dipstick when you check your oil?

It replaces the TP, I believe

Great suggestions! It's more like a washable tarp in my case. It also works well in the event I get stuck in an unfriendly area. Self preservation, if you will.

I called the manufacturer and they said it only needed to be charged once a year. Less than 1% loss each month, if I remember. I set two reoccurring calendar reminders (every six months) and it takes about 30 minutes. I’m too old to try to remember without assistance.?

I was wondering what the Biden t-shirt was for. Now I see it has multiple uses. ?

My last diesel was about ten years ago. Seems like we've come a long way if nobody is carrying bottles of 911/Heat and spare fuel filters anymore. Not much need to worry about the cold and fuel gelling these days?

Look at the option of one of those tactical tomahawks. I know it sounds left field, but the sharp tip can work to help get thru a windshield or back glass when a window punch won’t, the flat tip can help with firewood or whatever you need, and you can always stick it into a piece of wood and use it to prop other necessities up...

I’m gonna need a bigger truck. Lol

30 pack of Busch Light. That's it.

My man!

I keep a couple grand and a cannabis pen. Not many problems those two can’t solve.

I think I have checked off all the essentials. Last buy was a B&W hitch. When with the 3” receiver, 7.5” drop.

I keep Milwaukee DC battery charger and 18v battery with 3/8” mid-torque impact to complement tools in an Atlas tool wrap.

I'd look at the Dmos delta shovel in stead of the GI shovels. way better as a shovel when a shovel is needed. We've kept a folding GI style shovel in our vehicles but in actuality they are crap for vehicle recovery situations when a shovel is needed. No reach and moves little material. The other gimmicky parts of the shovel aren't very useful as well.

With such a big list, I have decided to put the off-road stuff in a duffel bag and put it in the truck as needed. There is a lot of storage, just not enough for everything!
