That truck is awesome. How about THAT for a bug out vehicle? <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Where I live, if you break down on an interstate, the Illinois State Police call a tow truck prety much immediately. If you can't get your car moving within just a minute or so of them checking your drivers license and registration and insurance, you're pretty much stuck with the bill unless you have already called a tow. They will verify that you have called, too. My brother was trailing me in a pickup with two tanks. The first tank ran dry and he didn't know to switch tanks, so the truck died at the exit we needed to take. I was turning around and coming back (about a 20 min. process on the interstate, made into 30 min. by the time I realized he wasn't following) and by the time I figured out what had happened, the tow truck had already picked him up. I drove up to the tow truck backing up to the pickup. A cell phone or even GRMS/FRS (or me thinking of telling my brother about the tanks in the first place) would have saved us $75. That was maybe 8-10 years ago, so policy may have changed.

All of the cops I know, a city cop, county cop and state trooper, all carry tons of stuff in their trunks.
