You mention tool kit. As a woman, what types of tools are you sugesting to be put in this kit? Pipe wrenches, Hand Saw? A more detailed list would be much more helpful than just "tool kit".
This is GREAT!!!! It would also be nice to have a first aid kit check list as well. I have a portable tool kit that I made into a first aid kit and I would love to hear what are the best things to have in it.
With the advent on one fan belt. Make sure you have the proper socket/breaker bar to get you going again. AAA is great, but they sometimes take a couple of hours to respond. That's a long time with horses ina trailer.
This is great but why would you need kitty litter or sand??? and a first aid check list (horses and human) would be great too!
You would need kitty litter or sand in snow just in cause if the roads are ice/ slippery. It helps if u get stuck.
I will need a tack trunk to keep all this in!
