I use this one:
Torin T10152 Big Red Steel Scissor Jack, 1.5 Ton Capacity.
I also carry a hockey puck to place between the jack and the lift pads on the car frame. I've used the jack in my garage and it works ok, although a standard floor jack makes it a lot easier to rotate tires.
For simple punctures just carrying a plug kit and a pump ought to be enough. The jack and other tools are likely overkill for most people.
Cool, thanks. I've seen "Big Red" mentioned in other threads; need to get one for trips. Agreed on the floor jack and hockey pucks for the garage, I have the same. You and I are probably equally "on our own" in the wilds w/spotty cell service, etc.
