I already got a tool kit, tire repair kit and am thinking about getting an air compressor. If you have an air compressor please recommend size and brand. Also anything else you think one should always carry with them just in case

I keep a ton of carp in my Ranger. To much but I hate having to come back to the barn to get something to do a repair on a feeder, fix a flat, or fence repair. Even keep spare road feeder parts and fuses.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

I already got a tool kit, tire repair kit and am thinking about getting an air compressor. If you have an air compressor please recommend size and brand. Also anything else you think one should always carry with them just in case Everything that has been mentioned here plus a "come along" in the front storage of my mule. With my mule having a windshield, I also keep glass cleaner and a small squeegee in mine. As for the air compressor, I would think any little 12 volt would work, some would just take longer than others. Kawasaki has put a nice 12 volt plug-in on the dash of the newer Mules. Works great for a compressor. Also, I keep my dog first-aid bag in the front storage. Like Mr. Oxner mentioned, be a good Boy Scout and always go to the field prepared for anything. One last thing, I mounted a Hylift Jack to the back rock screen behind the cab. It has proven to be the greatest tool of all...winch, lift, etc.

Nobody said T.P. yet, am I the only one? Tools, ratchet straps, a tow strap without hooks, and a cheap flashlight. As far as compressors go, I've had one of THESE banging around the truck for years. They started making them with a cigarette lighter plug, and it's worthless. Cut that off, get some good alligator clips to go directly to the battery, and it's a great little compressor for cheap.

Air compressor bought at Northern Tool, small, comes with a bag, strong enough to pump truck tire up.

Tool kit, axe, machete, saw, shovel, high lift jack, 2 pieces (12" x 12")of diamond plate aluminum (to set jack on in soft mud), Tire plug kit, Air compressor (the little one made by Slime is what I'm switching to next year), First aid kit with skin stapler (for dogs and humans), extra ammo, Pop Tarts, Granola Bars, Cooler with Whiskey, Sprites / Dr peppers. Water for dogs. Probably forgetting something.
Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

Only one I could find. You can see the bucket up on the top of the dog box. I haven't had to use it but it has saved my buddy.

Many of the things others have mention but I also keep a set of limb loppers in the bed. I leave the bucket with the bottom cut out at camp.....cause I lost my fur lined toilet seat.  JK

A spare half gallon of Jack Daniels!
Mounted gas can, I forget to look at the gauge often but that could be due to the Jack Daniels.
Mounted ice chest! Loose ones slide around and shake up passengers Beer!
Hidden key somewhere incase you forget it at home. (Refer to above Jack Daniels or old age) I have 2 zip tied on mine.

I have not seen a jump box on this thread but it's pretty useful.
Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.
