No it is not a car kit have a seperate one. This is a BOB that would allow me to get out of Dodge and head west about 20 miles to stay with family for a while. Last summer a storm knocked out a good portion of the electricity in the city for over five days. I would not consider staying in my home should something similiar happen again. I have cheap ponchos in the car kit and two in the BOB. Sorry I keep finding more things that I've crammed in there. The body of the BOB is a REI backpack. The EDC is repackaged in an Alosak bag and carried in either, a fanny pack, coat pocket, briefcase, or cargo pocket depending on the situation. I will definitely check out the ramen packets. Thanks.
