Anyone know where to find a good roadside emergency kit? My neighbors got one at Costco several months back and it is AWESOME, but they don't carry it anymore. It came with everything you could conceivably need including a small air compressor, jumper cables, pliers, screwdrivers, etc and only cost about $20. It sucks that they don't have it anymore. I checked Ebay and I'm really not happy with the ones on there. Brookstone has a good one but it is way overpriced like the rest of their stuff (about $80). Any ideas? Later.

heres what i did, go to wal-mart, get a plastic tub with a lockable lid, and start shopping, ive got just about everything except tools, prob. the most important thing, lol, flares, batteries, cables, 2 first aid kits, 2 fire ext. i even got an MRE

but do a search this has been talked about in the past.
make your own, it will be better.

I have to agree... I bought the kit and while it's nice to have it all in one bag = one purchase, it's still not a very good kit.
Of course you'll spend over $20 but you'll have a custom kit suited to best fit you.

20 bucks is gonna get you junk.....when you buy jumper cables buy really good ones.....cheap ones that are included in those kits dont work half the time.....I carry a cell phone and have good roadside with my insurance company, and I believe I have toyota roadside for awhile.....maybe a couple random tools, screwdriver etc...I mean what kinda tools are you gonna bring? "Oh no I blew a head gasket, luckily my roadside emergency kit has a new gasket and all the tools required to repair it..".......not very likely....and if you start getting everything your gonna end up going over board and have a can of beans, a life preserver and 5 gal of gas in you kit cuz you never know.....the air compressor is a pretty neat idea even just to get you off a major highway so you can safely change a tire.....but i'd just get some real nice cables, swiss army knife, flares, credit card and carry a cell phone....
