What sort of stuff do you put in your car?

Right now:
>Jacket
>A tonne of car cleaning equipment
>Enough degreaser to dissolve a body
>A tonne of rags
>Duct tape
>A crowbar
>Jumper cables

The only car I have right now is one I'm restoring, but it's a beater with no plates, so it looks like a murderer's car. I would honestly not be shocked if the cops asked to look through my car.

Normally though:
>First aid kit
>Extremely basic toolkit
>Blanket
>Jumper cables
>Jacket/jumper
>Water
>Torch
>Tire change kit

I have a plastic box which holds all this stuff in the boot. Works fine.

Hoping to set up this new car as the sort of car I could happily spend a night in and not die.

What's unusual about that?

bodies before the paydays

bikes, fire wood, maybe a round bale of hay from time to time, other things.
idk, how specific do you want?

>Tool kit-double ended ratcheting wrenches, channel-locks, bit driver, crowbar, zip ties, all the essentials
>Breaker bar for lug nuts/pry bar
>Box of cleaning supplies-microfiber rags, car soap, armor all protectant and multi-use cleaner, tire dressing
>Supplies- litre of oil, rustcheck spray paint, case of water, bungee cords, ratchet straps, tow strap, extra floor mats for cargo, fishing rod and tacklebox

>Misc- skis and snowboards, toolbox, winter tires, furniture, camping stuff

Honda Fit ftw

...

convince me not to buy a 2010 fit as my first car, user

It is probably the gayest car you could buy.
the only reason to own one is your dad bought it for you or your boyfriend, or both idk how your family works.

> bitches

well ignoring the supposedly sexual orientation implications, what do you think of it?

Im not that user btw, one of my mates bought his misses one though, driven it a few times can't really complain about it i guess other than they are fucking gutless and the autotragic is fucking retarded and changes gears constantly for no reason.

Nothing but the essentials (scraper in the winter, sunglasses and an emergency £5). Weight saving saves you petrol. I removed the rear seats as well.

My car weights about 870 kg, should I remove the rear seats, the full siezed spare wheel and other stuff?

Hamburgers and cheese curds.

Latex gloves
A snow brush/ice scrapper
Interior cleaner and a clean towel

Firewood
Camping shit
Shopping
Random tools
Gardening offcuts etc
Kids bikes
People
Water
Dunno, anything basically

Dead bodies

Jumper cables and a phone. If you need anything else you should stop driving a shitbox.

I have an 07 fit sport 1.5 L USDM
Different gens from the 2010 but my main complaints are the engine is gutless after 3rd gear in the automatic and with 5 people in it i have trouble getting above 90 km/h on ramps.
Trips over 2 hours and I get pain in my lower back as the front seats have no lumbar support. I'm 6' 2" and still have plenty of headroom but the steering wheel isn't telescopic and the driver seat only has angle and sliding adjustments. No raising and lowering feature like a y axis.
My rear trunk latch rusted and the lock actuator is weak so I have to always use the manual lock release through the inside panel by bending over the rear seats in order to open it from the outside. Similar problems are on the 2nd gen but it's an easy fix just the past on Rock Auto is $90.
The HVAC is under-powered so I'm cold in the winter unless it's on full blast and rear passengers are hot in the summer.
Rust and water leaks are also a problem for me. I had the typical roof seam leak in the back passenger side which allows water to run down behind the trunk trim panels as well as a leak in a body plug behind the bumper. Engine subframe needed a rust treatment at 90 000 km, and I've found more rust on the front bumper, and lower radiator mounts. Both not accessible without removing the front bumper and hard to get at with a rust proof spray.
Recently I noticed my fuel economy going down and while putting on my winter tires, I found my Driver front caliper to be seized. New caliper from Honda was $380 CDN cost but I got aftermarket front pads, rotors and remanufactured caliper for $180 after taxes and core from my shop. That was the cost price plus 10%.

I still need rear brakes, 2 more winter tires since my old set are crappy.

supposedly the 2nd gen fixed a lot of stuff. I just want a basic hatchback...

i have a Hohner Special C Harmonica, a fidget spinner, and some gum

The come rescue me starter pack. At least get one of those small battery bank bricks for your own jumps. You can also use it to charge your phone, so you can be extra sure to be rescued by better men if you do happen to break down.

NOTES:
Hefty trash bag good for impromptu park meeting or picnic takeout, and if you poke hole for head, it is pseudo raincoat too. I have always had a small trash container by habit since my home state had a trashbag/container law for all cars due to everyone tossing trash on hiways. I use wipes a lot for face oil or dirty hands. Plush toilet paper is my favorite for blowing nose and I use the low-lint Members Mark brand from Sam's Club since they are 4.25 x 4 inch sheets and not tiny soakthru sheets of other brands.

lack of a bucket for starters...

Toolbox with fuses, pressure gauge etc., plastic bag for shopping, chewing gum and a brush and telescopic shovel now in winter. I really need to get a net for the luggage compartment.

Zip ties
Duct tape
Sleeping bag
Duvet
Pliers
Portable air compressor
Jumper cable
a set of jack stands

Tools, quart oil and trans fluid, tail light bulbs, pliers, fuses

I have a set of tires, toolbelt, rain clothes, a tarp+blanket, and my muay thai gear.

I don’t get it. I own two lexuses, but still have a hard on for first and second gen Honda Fits.....

These are just neat little cars that drive *sorta* like old civics used to. (Can’t match the old multilink feel with McDonald’s struts tho)

I really want to own one and have a dorky commuter car that can haul goofy millennial shit (which i don’t even need), or K swap the fucker.

Your mother.

Tannenbaums and chainsaws

Take a test drive in one and see if you still like it, I still love fits and especially the newer ones, but once I sat in the first gens it was WAY too cramped for me, and I'm only 5'10. It drives great and it's very peppy, but there's like no room in the back seat for anyone of any height to sit comfortably in. It's only good if only YOU are in the car driving it, anyone else will feel squished in there. But it being able to fold seats and shit makes it great for hauling shit, but that's it. The second gen's are more spacious on the inside, way more.

>I removed the rear seats as well.
In my USA state, I'm unable to remove my rear seats because airbags are installed into the seat bolsters. There is a separate law that requires all the airbags remain in the car, thus removing the seats results in removal of the airbags which is not legal. So I am stuck having the rear seats and their airbags.

The only thing I keep in my car is a small brush for cleaning dust out of the switches

>The only thing I keep in my car is a small brush for cleaning dust out of the switches
Without rubber floor mats, it is hard to keep the car clean. It's even a bigger problem in the rainy and snowy winter when salts and other chemicals are around too. And homeless piss and poop in parking lots as they hide behind cars to do their pooping. You can then track that dried (or wet from rain) debris into your car if you don't have a rubber floor mat to make cleaning easy.

I recognise that footwell

W124?

Or wait, pedal is wrong

Rubber floor mats would have kept all that salt and grunge from soaking into the car's carpet. Now your car will rust from the inside out due to that salt soaking down to any point where galvanization is broken such as screw holes, welds, and seams.

I'm not super hot on the gen 2, but gen 1s are cool imo. The driving school I used when I was getting my license had a few Fits and they were ridiculously spacious for their size. One of them almost killed me once though.

>airbags are installed into the seat bolsters
I sometimes walk by cars with unique seat cover designs and wonder what happens when their airbags go off. The seat cover fabric seems to wrap all the away around, so the airbag would be confined under it. I don't see these seat covers sold at amazon or local auto shops, so maybe these people are buying them from other online chinese sellers. The makers of the seat covers might not have anticipated air bags.

You should wash your hands so that your switches don't need such frequent cleaning.

>Zip ties
>Duct tape
>Sleeping bag
>Duvet
>Pliers
ah, a fellow connoisseur of anytime adventure. i too, like to mix my special "hobby tools" in with more ordinary items.

Tissues/paper towels, aux chord, hand sanitizer, charger cable, emergency stuff like tire pump/first aid/blankets/jump cables/etc, change, air freshener, hair ties, tiny hair brush.... That's kinda it. I should put my reusable shopping bags in my trunk too. I don't like to have a ton of crap in my car. I keep everything in compartments/trunk so the only objects really visible are my charger/aux chords and the paper towel roll.

>Zip ties

If long enough, the Zip ties are good for doing something like in the picture.... It's a non-harmful reminder.

>go through all of the trouble to find zipties, put them on the cart and door
>owner walks up, puts stuff in the back, and then pulls up a pocket knife and cuts the zip tie
>owner drives off

do it on the passenger side, good chance SHE will never notice

Are break downs a constant concern for your car or something?
Also I hope that gas can is either empty or stored outside the car

A queen size mattress with sheets a few jugs of water. A space heater. A desk a bag with some change of clothes a pile of my text books a giant jump starter battery to charge my phone and listen to music on. Because fuck paying for a dorm

Myself, except it's not my car and I am not the one driving.

anyone else /devlish/ here?

liter of motor oil, 1 gallon of coolant, some torx wrenches and thats it i think

>pulls up a pocket knife and cuts the zip tie
A lot of beta boys don't carry a pocket knife. If anyone could cut the zip tie, it would be the female driver since she is bound to have a fingernail clipper in the purse. Those are necessary to even out a chipped nail to prevent it from getting worse.

SO MUCH GARBAGE

FAST FOOD WRAPPERS, RANDOM PAPERS, DIRTY LAUNDRY, LAST NIGHT’S DINNER, THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO, YOUR WAIFU, I GOT ALL THE GARBAGE YOU COULD THINK OF

I FUCKING HATE MY SHITBOX AND DONT CARE HOW BAD IM ABUSING IT BECAUSE IT IN AND OF ITSELF IS A PILE OF ROLLING GARBAGE

>pulls up a pocket knife and cuts the zip tie
If it is a quality zip tie, pull it tight so that it is cinched up flush with the door handle. Then it is hard to cut it off anywhere but the nub that sticks out. If the tie is cut anywhere but at the nub, the door handle could be scratched by the blade.

So if done right, it is fast to apply and tedious to remove. But it can be removed without damage to the car if done properly. If it isn't tedious, then it won't have enough impact to teach a lesson.

>Are break downs a constant concern for your car or something?
It can be "peace of mind" for some people to carry those things in the trunk. Peace of mind is part of car enjoyment too.

>SO MUCH GARBAGE
Clean out your car because other people see into it. That affects their opinions of you. If there was such a car in my corporate parking lot, that employee would become one of the salacious gossip targets of the whole company. Being a gossip target is bad because there will be LOL'ers who add extra "also" comments like "...he must ALSO be a pedophile" or "...he must ALSO be unreliable". Those people like to kick others when they're down.

>so many people forgetting their emergency cross dressing kits

It’s like you want to get caught unprepared.

For real though:
>ins/reg papers
>fire extinguisher

>basic toolkit

>super warm milsurp jacket+hat+gloves
>warm blanket
>Kaltec Sub2k w/3 mags+suppressor
>emergency rations+1gal water
It all fits nicely in a pair of milk crates in the rear foot wells.

Of course I have my cell phone+charger, AAA card, a knife and flashlight on me. Usually my .357, too.

At the moment:

Do you drive a suburban, explorer, excursion or something like that?

Cabin has a Hug Buddy for my phone, dash cam, beaded seat covers (driver & passenger), and a kleenex box holder on the passenger headrest. Manual and insurance stuff in the glove compartment, and CDs, sunglasses, and cigarettes (plus lighter) in the centre.

Trunk has my "emergency kit". Jumper cables, spare tire and jack, blanket, extra wiper fluid, road flare, road maps, jerky, pocket radio with batteries, and so on.

Besides those, which are pretty much "permanent" placements, I'll have whatever I might have bought that day (though that's out when I get home).

Likely an IFA, kek

You're lucky to find places to park such a big vehicle.

kurds mostly

Buncha fuckin random parts I've pulled from the junkyard to have as spares, a handful of sockets and one ratchet I think. The toolkit that came with the car. First aid kit with a bunch of field dressings and a CPR barrier. Knife? Maybe idk

You guys have thought about this before, haven't you?

>You guys have thought about this before, haven't you?
Not that guy, but more like irritated multiple times before by those bad parkers. People do bad things if they perceive they can avoid responsibility or consequence.

There are drivers whose mindset is that they are doing nothing wrong if what they do doesn't harm anyone they care about. Since they are doing no harm or impeding no one, that makes it okay in their eyes. In one local court case, a black youth pleaded innocent in court as he had hurt no one! His family insisted the same and even the mother tearfully pleaded for leniency since her son hurt no one. All he did was brandish a gun on board a bus and requested that people give him money and possessions on them. So, there are people who believe that by hurting no one, their actions should not be punishable. There really is too much of this attitude that if no one is hurt, then it is okay to do it. Well, I say it is not okay whether it be bad parking or brandishing or gently and politely asking people to hand over their possessions.

And a amp+subwoofer in the trunk but idk if that counts.

Organs and amplifiers mostly.

in case you didn't know, it's a top gear reference

Shouldn't it be the toilet seat for mounting onto the rear hitch? That was an amusing extra part in one of their shows on the way to the north pole in their super-reinforced Toyota truck.

Cheeky cunt

>implying i have the bootspace to fit anything i want to keep in my car vs anything i need to transport

The goal is to be non-harmful but still be enough of a bold reminder to force the driver to remember. If they don't remember, then they'll just do it again. I already see a lot of passive-aggressive parking space grabbing with people putting their tire next to the dividing line. So it's not like they cross the line. But there isn't enough space to park when they do that. SO they basically claimed two parking spaces.
