Re: [DML] What parts should I carry with me?

[DMCVIN6683 <dmcvin6683@xxxxxxxxx>]

I carry the same parts in my Delorean as i carry in my other cars, 
NONE. I carry a tool kit only in all my cars.

If you feel the car is un-reliable to drive where you need spare parts 
make it reliable first then drive it. I just dont get it when people 
carry parts for years and end up never needing them.

The best parts is what Dave S. said "a Cellphone and Credit Card".

No spare parts in my car!
