These are the kinds of episodes that caused me to make my car a rolling REI.
More than half my car's smallish trunk is taken up with gear, and maybe 10% of that is for work. It's got over 100K miles on it and when I'm dreaming of replacing it, I'm dreaming of a bigger trunk.
I calculated the money I would save by not buying a newer and bigger car. It's cheaper to make your gear lighter and smaller, than it is to make your car bigger.
Altough in such a situation, a large pile of gear won't help. Just getting a beacon and just water and food would go a long way.
