Proper maintenance is key to happy trips with few mechanical surprises.
However, dodo occurs, so . . . .
I carry enough tools to do any work I am capable of doing / willing to do while on a trip. I carry a rebuild kit for the air dryer blow off (because I needed that one trip), some plastic DOT airline & fittings. Electrical wire, jumper cables, oil, antifreeze, distilled water, duct tape, small roll of stainless mig wire, a cordless drill & bits, a jack and tire changing tools.
But the most important tool is my cell phone.
The most important part is my wife's credit card !
