List your on-board tools and repair equipment

Just out of curiosity, how many of you travel with tools and repair equipment? In my trunk I carry about 20lbs of tools. The tools include:

1) Standard rachet
2) Breaker bar
3) 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm sockets
4) medium size crescent wrench
5) tire repair kit (tire plugs, expansion tool, installation tool)
6) air compressor with built-in light
7) flash light
8) work gloves
9) electrical tape and duct tape
10) phillips and flathead screwdrivers
11) hammer
12) psi gauge
13) knife
14) 2 sets of pliers
15) channel locks
16) tow strap
17) fire extinguisher

I don't carry anything in the G unless I am travelling long distances. I do carry a similar collection in my beater truck minus the tire repair kit and and air compressor. I carry two cans of Fix-a-Flat instead. I have only needed the Fix-a-Flat once (nails in two tires and only one spare).

Nice handgun. You keep it in the rear armrest? My Beretta 96 (.40 cal) is usually nearby. I have to say thank you to St Louis for being rated the US most dangerous city for that one.

As for more constructive tools, I carry:
multiple sockets
mag-lite
gloves
tire gauge
knife
screwdrivers

I carry a couple of screw drivers, pliers, tape, and a couple of other misc. item. I need to start bringing along some sockets. My underbody diffuser somehow peeled back a couple of weeks ago and it was a pain trying to reattach it with pliers.

I don't have NAV so I put it in the cubby hole where the nav would have been. + I'm a cop so I won't get in trouble.

Don't have tools except the stock jack/tools. A flashlight and flares would come in handy.
