For the first time in the Spring Festival this year, the newly bought Tiggo 8 Pro 2.0T four-wheel drive version returned to Hainan from Hefei, and after the Lantern Festival, it went to Yunnan for a circle, and then turned into fertilizer. I used to drive Jimny, so I had more complete things in the car.
My old Jimny and the new Tiggo 8 Pro 2.0T 4WD Storm Edition
As a self-driving tour veteran who has traveled almost all over the country, let's talk to you about what you bring on the long-distance travel car during the Spring Festival. Of course, there may be some omissions, welcome to add together!
Where the country has run
1. Car inflatable pump, for inflating tires, in case the tire is punctured and leaked is not very serious, you can take a period of supplementary gas to support the repair shop, or you can inflate the tire after quickly repairing the tire. It can also be used to inflate an air mattress.
2. Quick tire repair rubber strip, which can quickly repair tires. During the Spring Festival, many repair shops may be closed, so it is best to deal with this kind of thing by yourself.
3. Tire pressure gauge with deflated function. Although both the on-board inflatable pump and the Tiggo 8Pro come with their own tire pressure display, it is still more convenient to have a tire pressure gauge to deflate the tires. Sometimes extreme sections that are difficult to pass, such as muddy roads, gravel uphill slipping sections, sandy terrain, etc., can deflate tires and increase grip. This is a common trick when driving Jimny off-road, since the Tiger 8 Pro bought a four-wheel drive version, sometimes it may also itch to wave slightly.
4. Emergency start power. To prevent the car battery from failing or feeding the car, there are also 2 USB ports on the emergency start power supply, which can be temporarily used as a charging treasure.
5. Glass water degreasing film additive. The southern temperature is high and running at high speed, you may encounter many small flying insects hitting the glass, and the oil removal film additive can play a role in removing shellac.
6. Glass oil film remover. This is directly wiped on the glass to remove shellac and oil film, the effect is stronger than the oil film removal additive, for the stubborn shellac can be easily removed, is simply a must for high-speed running.
7. Magnetic camping light. With flashlight, camping light, alarm light function, with magnetic force can be arbitrarily adsorbed on the body, camping or night will be very convenient to use. The light mode has one, two and three strong and weak light and warm light modes, and the police light mode (red and blue lights flashing alternately) can play a deterrent role.
8. Swiss Army Knife. It is convenient for unpacking, cutting fruit, and handling camping food.
9. Hand Table. It can be used with the car platform or communicate with temporary team members.
10. Common tools. Includes Phillips and Phillips screwdrivers, hex wrenches, utility knives and other practical tools that can deal with some problems in an emergency.
Also on display are transparent glue, double-sided adhesive and plastic cable ties, which can play a fixed role in the event of minor problems and small frictions in the car.
Car tools
Next is the rescue tools that come with the original car, which is also easy for many friends to ignore.
11. Jacks. It can be used when changing tires and when getting stuck in the car. The original car jack is more laborious to use, you can buy screws or hydraulic ones, I will put the hydraulic jack prepared by Jimny on the Tiger 8 Pro.
12. Tire removal tool. The removal tool matching the original tire screw is necessary for replacing the spare tire.
13. Tow hook. Tiggo 8Pro, an urban SUV, will not have the same fixed tow hook as the Jimny on the girder, and will have to be installed temporarily. Many friends have never used a tow hook and don't know where to put it, but it is necessary to find them out and familiarize themselves, in case the car is trapped, others can still drag you, if the car breaks down, the flatbed trailer also needs your own tow hook to drag your car to the flatbed truck and pull away. The tow rope forgot to show, if you have a lot of space in the car, it is recommended that you also have one.
Self-rescue tools
14. Reflective vest. At night, if you encounter an accident on the road, or the car breaks down and people want to leave the car, you can put on the reflective vest, or spread the reflective vest on the rear of the car to ensure the safety of personnel.
15. Warning triangle signs. I usually put the main driver underneath, and the first thing I encounter in an accident or breakdown is to put up a warning sign in the distance.
Fire extinguishers and window breakers should also be prepared, which I have not prepared yet, and will be prepared in the next year.
Security tools
16. Hand Table. This is repeated with the above, and I forgot when I made the picture, mainly for the people on the car to maintain communication with the car after getting off the car, and other riders who joined temporarily can also give him the hand platform to maintain communication with their own car.
17. Carriage. The power is larger than the handtable, the communication distance is longer, and it is not limited by battery power, and can communicate with other fleets when temporarily joining other fleets.
Communication tools
Next are some outdoor products for camping.
18. Outdoor quick release table. For eating outdoors, tableware and cooking utensils can be placed on the table, and the table is quick to open for easy storage.
19. Inflatable mattress. For sleeping in the car, you can use the air pump to quickly inflate, and the Tiggo 8 Pro pours the rear exhaust into a flat large bed, and it is very comfortable to sleep on an inflatable mattress.
20. Double tent. For emergency use, if there are more people camping overnight in the car, the extra people can live in tents.
21. Sleeping bag + quilt. A quilt is more comfortable than a sleeping bag when camping, so I always have a quilt on hand. Sleeping bags can be used temporarily by people living in tents.
22. Outdoor chairs. The four lightly foldable outdoor chairs can be used when parking to rest in the sun, camping, eating and playing cards.
23. Stove, gas tank, set of pot. Outdoor cooking utensils and cutlery, guys who make fires and cook while camping.
Outdoor camping tools
24. Glass water. Always have glass water on the car, in order to be afraid of continuous rain and snow during the Spring Festival, the consumption of glass water is relatively large.
25. Air conditioning filter. The long-distance air conditioning filter element is easy to get dirty and can be replaced at any time.
26. Air filter element + oil filter element. This trip takes a long time and a long distance, and it is expected to do a maintenance on the road. Engine oil can be found anywhere, but Tiggo 8Pro's air filter and machine filter may not be available anywhere, so a set is prepared.
Maintenance tools
