Well, I'm way less prepared then you guys lol.
All I keep in my truck are a set of jumper cables, a blanket and a tow rope. Hopefully soon I'll have a CB to add to that list.

Those are all great lists and in the winter time it never hurts to carry emergency supplies.

However, you guys have forgotten to list the one thing that you will always need when doing a mud run.. A BUDDY in another Blazer or 4X4 truck.

Nothing sucks worse than having to walk out of the woods and trying to find someone to get you out.

But KUDOS to Bunny for bringing it up!
