    Great video 10/10. Just a friendly notice I am a certified Ford technician. All batteries with a black sticker on top, means it’s the original one that was equipped with the vehicle,(meaning it’s never been replaced).might want to get that looked at since batteries only last 3-4 years

      6 years strong! I should probably get a new battery though…

    Great travel tips (including a stop at Buc-ee's). I never remember to check my spare before I take a long drive. Safe travels!

    Good list. I like to throw a cordless impact and socket set in as well. Makes removing/reinstalling lug nuts a breeze.

    Great tips. I would add that I wouldn't trust a jump box alone. Even if you have one, always good to have cables as well just in case.

      @@igorrosales1799 I'm general, but what I mean is that a jump box is another battery, and batteries die. By all means get one, but also carry a set of decent jumper cables just in case.

    I like to carry about $10 in quarters because there is always that unknown toll booth that pops up on every road trip. Oh, and condoms and duct tape can come in handy too.
    Get your mind out of the gutter and read a common survival guide!
    Although, if you go into any Walmart and buy condoms, duct tape, and a shovel, they will escort you out of the store and put you on a list.

      Why quarters? they wont take bills or debit card?

    I have the same battery tester you have. If your battery says it's OK but needs charging, it needs to be replaced.

    Bring a jump box. Cables require another car that might not be availible

    You point out the power steering fluid, but that's the brake fluid resovior.

      Check the sticker in your drivers door jamb. I’m not running a stock setup
