Speaking of carrying a tow strap. After doing a lot of traveling in vehicles, between work and play, it's a good idea to carry at least one tow strap, a couple bungees, first aid kit, warning triangle, and maybe even a can or two of food. I use a small tupperware type box that I carry in my trunk. When I lived in Europe most of those items were a requirement, plus a small fire extinguesher and I've kept the habit since and have run into times when they have become very useful. If the bungees and the strap are never used the packages they come in are quite small and don't take up much room. Just to change the subject, but things to think about, especially with winter drviving conditions coming up. I think Les Schwab even sells a little kit as well. I won't be driving my WRX till March but I like hearing and seeing all the stuff that you all have to offer. Once I get a day off, I'm gonna check out the subie dealership in Kuwait City, I want to find out if the side view mirrors are the same size as my 02 WRX, I think it would be cool to have the little "objects closer" message in arabic, plus my wallet is burning a serious hole in my pockets and I want to get back to Portland to throw some serious cash into my engine and exhaust. Well, gotta go work on a generator.

Sound advice.

I keep a first aid kit (need a better one), flashlight, jumper cables, folding shovel and blanket in mine. Guess I should add a tow strap and maybe a couple of bungees to that.

Any idea where I can find a couple of those warning triangles? Been looking for those for ages.

You guys take car of the trunk parts, I'll handle the IPA. Since I'm down in San Diego right now, I guess the Coronado Brewing Company will be serving me one (or two) tonight!
