What's in your vehicle(s) ???

Taking a page from TR's "EDC Update" thread, let's see what's in your vehicle(s). ... without the pictures. (You can take one if you want to, but it's not necessary.)

Aside from the standard emergency kits (spare tire, jack, lug wrench, fix a flat, etc.) what "extra's" do you have?

Are they readily accessible or can you reach them in an emergency situation? Such as being stuck in a snow drift, a roll over on a rural road, running off the road and being hidden by under/over brush, etc.

The last situation happened to a woman recently here in Colorado. She was driving on a mountain road late one night and ran off the road avoiding a deer. She ended up some 100 yards from the road and was covered up by the under/over brush and trees. She was trapped in her vehicle for seven days until someone found her. She had to have both her feet amputated due to her injuries, but survived.

Do you have you extra items secure or would they turn into "missiles" if in fact you had a roll over?

Food?
Water?
Clothing?
Blanket(s)?
First Aid?
Flashlight(s)?
Flares?
Signaling device?

Let's see what you have ....
