@SilverSurvival I have two large black totes with yellow lids, one for all year round kit, the other for winter and a plain tote filled with blankets, sweat shirts, hats, caps, sweaters, socks, underwear, wash clothes towel, hand towel, wipes. In my totes are folded hand saw, 2" reciever with shackle, tow straps, tow rope, soft shackles, come along, ax, hacket, knives, lighters, matches, rubber gloves, paper towels, rags, tools, 4 way lug wrench, NOCO jump starter, jumper cables, wire hanger to tie up muffler, safety glasses, kneeling pad to get under vehicle, electrical tape, Gorilla tape, J.B. Weld, work gloves, glow sticks, poncho, rain gear, industrial water key and more.
If stranded, stay in vehicle that is lit up like a Christmas Tree. Hunker down. Blankets, tarps, moving blankets. Pillows. Warm socks, warm boots, hats, mits, gloves, layers of clothing. Limit food and water intake at first. More time getting out of vehicle to pee and poop and get cold. Light candles in glass jars. Start vehicle once in a while for heat. Should have a full tank always.
I made tea light camp fire pits for my sons cars. Three eight hour tea lights in a frisky tin ( three of those ) to go in a wider tomato sauce can that has a bag of sand to dump in( protection from the heat) and a lighter. Six four cups size mylar bags with purified water. Two days of food, a flash light and both a fleece blanket and mylar emergency blanket. I had to force them to put in their cars.....
Good video brother. Just to share suggestions, a poncho/ tarp, a Solar charging power bank, toilet paper and or wipes, A good hatchet , bank line and duct tape
You’re welcome! I haven’t finished the link set yet, but I’ll get most of it added tomorrow. Had homestead activities to do today, to get ready for the cold spell.
I keep a sleeping bag and blankets in each car. My wife's van stalled in minus 15 F weather and she and my daughter experienced hypothermia and the early stages of frostbite on their toes. Now we're better prepared.
I'm glad it was helpful. I actually posted this video a few months ago, and just re-uploaded it with a different title and thumbnail. I thought it might be important for people to see the information, and new uploads often get a new push from youtube. If you're a subscriber, make sure you've clicked the bell to receive notifications when I upload new content. It comes out at least weekly. Thank you for watching!
One of the most important things to have with you is a satellite communication device like a Garmin InReach unit. With it you can text message others, email others, or call in a rescue. It has an electronic compass, weather forecast, maps for the entire world. You need one of these units.
agreed, I personally think the ham radios are over rated in these types of emergencies. Most don’t put the time in to learn proper usage. If it’s an extended incident then I see the benefits. iPhones can contact help via satellite as well.
3 things that will down a vehicle. 1. Dead battery. 2. Radiator leak/hose leak. 3. Flat tire. Have 2 or 3 ways of correcting these issues to get you home. Example flat tire; spare tire, tire inflator, large cans of Fix A Flat, tire plug kit. Redundancies and back ups.
That’s a great list. Thanks for the additions. That’s all in a video that I’m working on now…except the storm hit before I could finish it. Most of that is in my vehicular EDC. Thanks for watching! And I really do appreciate the comment!
in my truck I have a bag with hang off mini bags *Weight reduction i can remove if i need to hike with it #1 item for winter was a extra pair of wool socks And wool hat/gloves 3 key places you lose heat - Just ask any "Survivor that had frostbite" And something you also want is Bright neon color to be visible (My hat is Orange) The other item is a working flashlight Granted it might not work in freezing weather But they do have fully charged rechargeable batteries in them - IKEA sells some of the best ones on the market. for those with some extra $$$ And your a outdoors man anyways ...A heated jacket with a 12v outlet You can run off the your own jacket for a good min 3 to 8 hours And a 12v adapter to extend that off the car battery I got mine as a gift Thinking i owned a snowmobile ....if your car will not start anyways This would be a good back up
@@SilverSurvivalI picked up my bungy cords, ratchet straps, tow rope, tow straps, 2 inch receiver with shackle, soft shackles, tire repair kits both of them and more from Rhino U.S.A. Great American company.
Your videos are really impressive 👏 but I saw your thumbnails need some improvement if you improve them you can grab more attention I can make your next video thumbnail if you like it I can make more for you Looking forward to your response 😊
The problem is if you’re stuck in a spot without cell service. For example, I have several spots between my home and work that are complete dead zones. No cell signal at all. Sat phones? Sure! I haven’t used one since my military days. But a sat phone is what, $700.00? Then maybe $70.00 a month for a half hour of service that you won’t likely need. Coax is cheap.
I've never seen a shemagh that is thick enough for warmth. Sure you aren't rocking a scarf there instead? If a shemagh, let us know where you found it. Mine looks like cheese cloth its so thin. Also, more of the pup. Pups rule.
And that is why there's a great chance you're dead if something ever happened during a long drive and got lost in winter conditions and got stuck. The great thing about being ready for that to happen is knowing you have a good chance of surviving. Where you think we constantly worry about what ifs, when you are prepped to a degree that can handle multiple situations, you no longer worry as you know what you have needs handled.

You have one of the best “just in case” kits I’ve ever seen that doesn’t have a lot of $ invested into it-lots of “common sense”! Thank you sir
Thank you for your kind words. The military engrained preparedness in my mind, and this is just something we do. Thanks for watching.

@@trajan6927LOVE those Costco totes! Cheap and so useful!
Also a hatchet is a good tool, and protection also :)
Thank you for many good ideas. I always share them.
Thank you for watching, and sharing the ideas. I really appreciate it.
Wow! That's some bag. 👍
Yep! My old gym bag, fits everything I need, and cost me nothing, since I’ve had it for over 20 years. :)

before starting vehicle check that exhaust isn't clogged. That old drive into deep snow/snowbank thing.
Great kit! One item suggestion - add a collapsible avalanche shovel. Because….SNOW ;)
Yeah, if a shovel is not part of your basic vehicle equipment, add a shovel for sure!

Thank you! I keep most of that in the vehicle all the time. I mentioned duct tape. At least I hope I did! It’s certainly in my kit. Stay safe!
Thank you. I appreciate the links so I can do some research from there. Appreciate all you do.
Wishing you a happy and healthy new year!

Extremely important to be prepared.
I was looking for a video that covered exactly this, I am surprised you uploaded this only a day ago. Thank you for all the advice and suggestions.

If you carry that much stuff, you might need to carry a 5 gallon can of gas in case you run out of gas from hauling all that weight around LOL. 😁☺

Every car needs a roll of heavy duty aluminum foil too. Make a cup and melt snow over the fire or tea light candle to drink.
Great idea!
Thank you for your video
Thank you for watching! I appreciate it.
Canned food/water, extra clothes/blankets,hand warmers, shovel/axe...done, it's an emergency not a camping trip
*Also never let tank go below half
On the case logistics man….⭐

Could you replace the 75 ft coaxel cabel with a cell phone or satellite phone ?
The problem is if you’re stuck in a spot without cell service. For example, I have several spots between my home and work that are complete dead zones. No cell signal at all. Sat phones? Sure! I haven’t used one since my military days. But a sat phone is what, $700.00? Then maybe $70.00 a month for a half hour of service that you won’t likely need. Coax is cheap.
There has gpt to be a better way than that ham radio. What about a satellite phone? I am not tech savy
Satellite phones are expensive, but yes. They are also a viable option.
I've never seen a shemagh that is thick enough for warmth. Sure you aren't rocking a scarf there instead? If a shemagh, let us know where you found it. Mine looks like cheese cloth its so thin.
Also, more of the pup. Pups rule.
It is thin, and yes it’s a shemaugh. They are great for warmth. I have a link to it in the description.
Toilet paper. Tin can.
Good additions! I have restroom gear in my truck, but not in my winter survival kit! I need to check my other cars! Thank you for the adds!
Tea candles for heat 😂😂😂
Thanks for watching.
Must have ? this is a ridiculous video for the average person
I am an average person and need all of this stuff.
