Got a Toolbox?

When was the last time you actually checked if your car had a fully functional toolbox? If you do get into car trouble, you can draw confidence from a well stocked toolbox. So here is what your toolbox might need.

Basic tools. Since automotive toolboxes are usually small, just put in basic tools such as screwdrivers, standard wrenches, something to cut with, and something to wrap or stick with. In most emergencies all you need to do is come up with a short-term quick fix, so make sure you have the bare essentials to do just that.

Cleaning rags. Use these so you can minimize the grime that gets on your hands. Thick workman's gloves may also do the trick.

Emergency medical supplies. Although best if you keep these in a cleaner portion of the car, emergency supplies such as band aids and gauze may actually be useful if you accidentally cut yourself while in the process of repairing the car.
