So what do you carry

SCOTSMAN said:

In the back of my 90. Wet weather gear, fridge, tins of food,coffee ,water ,small gas stove, camping kettle, camping pots, 13FT salmon rod, reels, wading stick, waders ,wading boots and a wading jacket, small toolkit, oil, wd40 and duck tape. Fishing related stuff is replaced by a shovel in the closed season. shovel comes out the end off April. All stored on the dog guard in the fridge and a plastic ikea box. Probably far to much stuff.

I carry all my expo gear in the rig as there is no room in the house! briefly: spares, toolbox, recovery gear, petrol stoves, chairs, table, kitchen gear, kelly kettle, BBQ, wet weather gear, cold weather gear, boots etc etc!

...and I got an anderson connector on me jump leads

plus my 45l fridge

i always carry the recovery strop, jack, block of wood, oil, water, jump leads, various screwdrivers spanners and allen keys live in the cubby box, one thing i haven't got which needs sorting is shackles, they seem to have walked

one of the strangest things i've carried in the back in a 2 week old calf pmsl obviously i avoid taking that everywhere
