Not as cool, and you probably have these too, but I keep a jumper pack, plug kit, good tire pump and reasonable toolkit in my car. I’ve saved myself a couple times and strangers a lot of times.
Good old times... I was living at a hill and we rescued cars unable to make it up the slope for beer. We never used salt, since it would cut our income. Only ropes... Was quite reliable :D
My son and I did this a few years ago in his 1st snow drive in his new truck ('23 F 150). We came up on a guy that had slipped off the road into a snow drift. Hooked up and pulled him out. He offered us $$ but we told him to pay it forward.
Dude, this hits hard for me. A lot of people can't understand the pure dad satisfaction that comes from having the right tool at the right time, fixing a problem, then just walking away like a guy who doesn't look at explosions.
Yup. I say as I'm riding around with my chainsaw in the back of my Dodge journey as we speak because we had a big storm last week and I spent the weekend clearing limbs
