Darn Lon - I could fit all that in the MG... There it's usually a 2m/70cm/6m HT, duct tape, spare fuses and a credit card..

I always have an ice scraper, folding camp saw (believe it or not it really comes in handy), napkins I save from restaurants (I can't throw them away, I think I have a problem!), toilet paper, one or two lighters, knife, flahlight, electrical tape, fuses, bottle of water, small coil of wire and wire nuts (very handy for radio repairs on the go), gloves and a small first aid kit. I have never encountered a situation I couldn't handle. I keep it all in a little cubby behind the seat in my truck.
