"Hi I'm Jake Burt from Burt Brothers tires and on behalf of Expert Village.com we're going to talk about the proper tools you should keep in your vehicle just in case of an emergency or a problem you might run into. First of all you want to check on your own personal vehicle that you drive to see if you have a jack, a tire tool to remove the lug nuts. If you ever have a flat tire and need to change it. To change out a tire, most cars should come from the factory with the proper tools to do that for you to remove a center cap if you have a center cap, or locking lug nuts you want to make sure you have the proper key and tools to remove that. Some other tools that would be fairly beneficial to have would be some kind of a screwdriver, a Phillips or a regular head, also some kind of crescent wrench or something like that would be pretty necessary to have in case of an emergency. In case you ever had to tighten up the battery cables under the hood or some other kind of adjustments you might need to do. There are all kind of tool kits that you can buy stop by your local service stations or parts stores even some of your catalogs from certain companies offer road side assistance bags you can spend anywhere from $20-$30 all the way up to $100. The more tools you can carry and the smallest bag that you can store underneath your seat would be highly beneficial. Most important part is you want to be prepared in case of an emergency you want to have a pair of jumper cables if you ran into a dead battery or even if it's someone else in distress. You could lend a hand and give them a jump. So check by your local parts store or even your car dealership maybe they offer a package some kind of container you store under your seat or put it in your trunk. Just keep out of harms way in case you'll ever need it in an emergency, you'll have some tools and you'll be prepared."
