I like camping so a lot of the above gets used. In the past I had lived out of my car and tent for a long time. I don't like to just store food in a car, due to local bears (have one in my car a couple of years ago, eating everything--I still keep the crate pieces with it's toothmarks all over)

Shovel
Tow strap
Traction Mat
Basic Tools
Giant zip ties
Duct tape
Lighter

Water
Tire Chains
Backpack with whatever is in that bottomless pit
12 volt inverter
A $20 dollar bill in center console (this comes in handy more times than I can count)

Sounds like you're also ready for an abduction and disposal.
I just recently added a puncture patch kit. It seems significantly easier to patch a hole than to put a spare on. If you can find the hole and pump it back up.
I have several packs of emergency water, and a basic 72 emergency kit in the trunk. Has some food, water, shelter, blankets, tools, etc. Bought it on beprepared.com
