Ok for you folks who have put their cars on a diet, what safety gear have you decided to leave. For me; the spare and jack will stay, as will the jumper cables, small air compressor with tire repair kit and a first aid kit. In the winter a snatch strap + cold weather survival gear. My car is a manual and I am usually pretty good at staying out of the ditch so the jumper cables and strap are good Samaritan items. Even in the civic as with proper application a 2000# civic can, without damage, pull a 5000# truck out of some stuff.
