Vent: That time my mud tire shredded on a ranch road outside Lubbock

I was 8 miles from pavement in 105 degree heat with no spare after the sidewall let go, so I stuffed the gap with a cut-up floor mat and bailing wire, patched it with tarp straps, limped to a truck stop in 20 minute bursts, and a guy there told me his 1996 jeep did the same thing, which is when I realized 'self recovery' actually means 'how creative can you get with junk in your bed' - anyone else carry a weird emergency kit that saved a trip?

Duct tape and a Prayer. That's the whole kit.
