Cory,

I don't know about you, but I've had the unfortunate experience of blowing a
water hose in the middle of nowhere... twice.  The gallon or so of water I
carry in all my vehicles has saved me from spending hours on the side of the
road waiting for a tow truck.

Cheers,

Jeff

WARNING!!!

At the risk of beating to death the obvious, there is a ton of that nasty
green stuff right in front of our feet and running the entire length of the
van, even popping into the passenger compartment for the comfort heater
cores.  I think the risk of carrying antifreeze is minor.  I also think that
the odds of needing it in an emergency are minor.  The whole thread seems
kind of moo - like a cows opinion - it means nothing!
