Make your self a boonie box with extra fluids, belts, hoses, fuses, wire/connectors, tape, silicone/glue, jack and tools. I always have a box like that in my trucks, saved my butt a few times run to and from work.

Its had a slow power steering leak since I got it, but the seller gave me the replacement pump so is it worth the time to replace? I am gonna bring my wrench/ratchet set and keep it in the tool box along with spare motor oil and duck tape haha. Probably should get some of those things too just in case
