Emergency preparedness shouldn’t be an afterthought — it’s better to be ready and not need your kit than the other way around.

This idea is well-known in the adventure community, but it’s especially relevant during holiday travel; road-tripping to your in-laws’ place is already stressful enough without a highway disaster in the mix.

If you’re driving this holiday season and want some extra peace of mind, now is the perfect time to snag Uncharted Supply Co.’s new Roadster Auto Kit.

The pre-packed case already costs less than buying its contents separately, and it’s currently on sale for Black Friday, potentially saving you hundreds of dollars (and a headache or two).

Dare to prepare

Uncharted Supply Co. already makes plenty of survival-focused gear and comprehensive kits, but its latest release hones in on the essentials required for driving with peace of mind. The Roadster is housed in a custom Pelican case, and it contains just what you need in case you have a little car trouble this season.

Open its durable lid, and inside you’ll find the brand’s Zeus Air, a jump starter/inflator capable of reviving engines up to 6.0L diesel, inflate tires to 150 PSI, charge your devices, light your way or signal oncoming traffic.

Meanwhile, the First Aid Pro is a compact first aid kit filled with professional grade supplies.

Then there’s The Extractor static tow strap, rated to 17,500 pounds, the survival-minded Multi-Tool Pro, 800-lumen Tactical Flashlight and versatile Chem lights, which can be used as traffic markers or emergency signals.

Each tool is housed in the Pelican case’s precision-fit, custom-cut foam, and the entire package comes with instructions for taking on common roadside emergency situations.

The Roadster Kit isn’t just minimally utilitarian though — it’s also budget-friendly when compared to individually investing in each of its included components.

Save big

At full price, the Roadster Auto Kit costs $499. That may sound hefty for a kit you’ll (hopefully) never have to use, but it hides a decent amount of savings.

If you were to purchase each of these items on their own, you’d be looking at $80 for the Pelican case, $254 for the Zeus Air, $79 for the First Aid Pro, $55 for The Extractor, $35 for the Multi-Tool Pro, $20 for the Tactical Flashlight, $3 for the Emergency Chem Lights, totaling $526, pre-tax.

Aside from the extra money you’d be spending if you bought everything individually, you’d also have to cut the foam inside the case yourself to house it all. And write out the clear instructions that make this kit even more convenient.

Availability and pricing

The Roadster Auto Kit is on sale right now as part of Uncharted Supply Co.’s Black Friday sale, which makes the savings even sweeter. Snag this road-ready kit on the brand’s official website for $449.
