What Tools are you going to carry in your New Maverick?

[Rkbrumbelow]

I believe you forgot a muffler wrench and a steam extractor

Nah, don’t need either, this is literally what I carry everyday.
But remember, I have no immune system to speak of this the CBRN gear. I am a rangemaster and firearms trainer for disabled individuals thus the first aid blowout supplies, Insm a CERT member thus the breaching snd moving supplies and I have a broken back so the wheelchair and CERT command supplies. I never know when I will get a CERT deployment request.
CERT for those that do not know are civilian FEMA people who do Community Emergency Response (team). As I am hazmat,hazwhopper, and explosives ID and removal certified I tend to be in demand in some weird situations. As I can no longer be field deployed (in a wheelchair) I get stuck ( yes stuck because the paperwork sucks) as site commander until relieved.

About half of what is found in the local Harbor Freight Store just down the road from here.

I was going to say 'my husband,' but then I worried that he would see my comment.

This got me thinking... Maybe I can convert one of the under seat cubbies into a toolbox using the FITS system. Although, I bet it could get noisey with the tools clanging around.

Does the Maverick have a Tire Pressure Monitor System? Either way I’ll but a cheap air pump/ slim hit if a tire is just low and I can add pressure to make it to a tire store or home. I’ve literally had this happen twice in the last 6 weeks on my BMW that doesn’t have a spare. Pump saved me even when the tire was completely flat it got me home after pumping it up (3 miles from home).

TPMS is a federal requirement for over a decade now.

My cell phone and my Amex.... the only tools worth a damn 99% of the time.....

Unless going off road to no man's land I see no reason to carry tools on a new vehicle but seriously in 23 years of driving, I haven't even had a flat tire or any reason to justify anything else but I have never owned a ford so we will see if this comment comes back to bite me in a few month time.

Survival gear in case I get stranded, i.e., space blanket, knife, axe, fire starters, hobo-fishing gear,etc... a spare set of winter clothes when applicable as well as immediate first aid that might be relevant to vehicles. Chest seals, tourniquets, gauze and bandages, whatnot.

This. I keep a survival pack in all my vehicles. Never have had to use them and hope I never do. Glad to know I have them there for the day someone in my family does though.

Basic hand tools that do multi-tasking crescent wrench, multi-screw driver-nut driver, channel locks, electrical tape, Leatherman, flash lights(more than one), racket straps, bungee cords. maybe more like a hidden key(truck and house)

You can get a survival pack that's tiny, with a space blanket, heat candles and chocolate.

Me? Survival pack, first aid kit, small hatchet, shovel. In Canada firearms are regulated so baseball bat and glove, bowie knife, tow ropes (2), ratchet tie downs (2), bag of bungee cords, bottled water, rubbing alcohol, spray on bandages. If going into the bush add camp mat, small tent and sleeping bag.

Pick and pack foam sheets are your friend in these cases. Pick out the foam you need to put the tools in and no rattle.

A real Jack. The tiny crank one that comes with the truck will be removed minute 1.

Honestly, I pay AAA to send me a truck with tools if I need them, plus an expert to use the tools. The 'tools' I carry are charging cables, extra facemasks, and paper napkins - all in the console. Since it's a truck, I might throw some assorted bungee cords in that storage compartment in the bed just to make me look legit.
