Do you keep an emergency kit in frunk?
Recently purchased a bag to store various items in the event of a flat or breakdown including a tire plug kit, pressure guage, flashlight, some tools, clean rags, cable ties etc. What are others keeping stored up front in the event of a problem?

We do a lot of road trips so in addition to a cell phone and AAA card, I have a small Craftsman tool bag that contains the following:
1. tire plug kit 2. small LED flashlight 3. zip ties of various sizes 4. small roll of gorilla tape 5. small coil of bailing wire 6. leatherman multi-purpose tool 7. gloves 8. adjustable wrench 9. channel locks 10. multi-tip screw driver I also carry a can of fix-a-flat and a small first aid kit |
Besides the built-in tire inflation stuff, i carry only a First Aid kit, a couple pints of water, multi purpose LED light, tire pressure gauge, some glass cleaning spray and a razor scraper for bugs on the windshield, and some towels. Plus some Swiffers and detailing stuff that are beyond the scope of the OP. And i carry my AAA Plus card plus the Porsche Roadside Assistance Card.

Tire plug kit, a bottle of scotch and a gun. |
I started to carry a small jump start battery kit inside the car (behind the passenger seat on the floor) in case the battery dies and I can't open the frunk to jump it. Thanks to this forum, I was made aware that it could be useful to have that inside the car with the cigarette lighter adapter so the frunk can be popped open. Also, I keep a tire plug kit inside the car.

Quart of oil (Porsche sells a bag for $20 that is really nice), the anti-seize for the centerlock. One thing I have been meaning to add is silicone tape. The stuff is amazing. I also really want the Porsche tool kit, but it is $339. I should have bought it when it was on sale for $300. |
Yup!

Yes to emergency kit carrying what’s already been mentioned above. When traveling in winter (not in 911) also carry blanket, empty coffee can, candle, instant pocket warmers, energy bars along with winter gear, bright orange vest or poncho, and space blanket along with flares or battery operated safety light (combo flashlight & emergency light). No matter where/when I’m traveling I ALWAYS carry shoes or boots so I could comfortably walk if necessary. They may never leave the car but are there if I need them. Self defense is also a must. Depends on whether the state reciprocates the CCP. If not - peppergel spray or other items. Having grown up In a snow-y northeastern area, you don’t under-estimate the power of a snow storm and the possibility of being stranded. And proper snow tyres are an absolute requirement no matter what you’re driving. Not just for snow but for cold temps and without precipitation. |
