Thus the minimal Bulley toolkit. If I can't fix it with a screwdriver or
Vice-grips in 10 minutes, I have failed in my PM, and it's going on a
flatbed to someone/somewhere that can punish me ($$$) for not maintaining
my van.

1.... Preventative Maintenance is best.
2.... Take along the Recommended Mechanic and Recommended Vendor list.
3.... Most important... cell phone, tow insurance, credit card and a couple
of $100 bills!
