Hi,

SUVs are challenging for discrete storage of supplies. We have a Honda Pilot and Jeep Grand Cherokee and there are lots of little spaces to tuck things into. Here are some things to consider.

Find the jack storage place and add in related supplies (flares, small candle lantern, flashlight, small 12V air pump, tire plugs). I wrap all of this with those cheap "red rags" they always sell for mechanics.

Get some small "truck boxes" from sears - the are basically plastic tool boxes and some large enough to store 2 quarts of oil (very handy to keep the oil "contained"). In the jeep this goes nicely under the rear seat (holding a quart of oil and a quart of transmission fluid) along with a tow rope and a tool rollup from Duluth Trading, and a couple of reflective triangles. So I have all my auto supplies well stashed.

My Honda has some under floor storage in the cargo area and I think the Liberties has something similar. Figure out how much space you have to work with but this could be a good location for things.

Most of the trick has been finding the available spaces to safely tuck in the basics (don't want loose projectiles in the car) and organizing things. I do keep a gym bag in the car for things that don't stash. I also have the pet barriers to help keep things in the back of the car.

Oh, for what it is worth, my 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee has been running fine since we got it (new) with only routine maintenance and a couple of minor repairs due to age. We love it and will probably keep it around until we can pay cash for the next Jeep ( I want the 4 door Wrangler).

Good luck with your Jeep,

-Eric
