[QUOTE="1krr, post: 2704368, member: 750"] Preparedness isn't always about buckets of rice and boxes of ammo. Sometimes it's more about making sure you've covered the basics. You figure this out when you find yourself stranded on an old dark 2 lane in the middle of unfamiliar territory. Unbeknownst to you, this highway is called "murder highway" by the locals because of the rash of missing people and bodies found along it over the last 20 or so years. You are on vacation driving through a non-2a type country so you've left your ccw at home as you deemed you didn't want to risk problems with the RCP. Your car was broken down through an unforeseen but realitively easy to fix issue but in your haste to put everything back together, you've lost a small bolt into the bowls of the engine. This small but critical bolt holds a sensor in place that the engine will not run without. You can juuuuuuuuuust see it but no way of getting even the smallest hands of your youngest child down there to get it. While you have a basic assortment of hand tools, wrenches, a rachet set, a screw driver set, wire ties, etc, you don't really have the tools/gaskets, to get the parts off to get to the bolt and if you don't get to the bolt, you aren't leaving. You've looked around but can't find another bolt on a noncritical peice that would work. What do you do? [/QUOTE]
