If you actually need substantially more tools than that you're either going to not have the spare part required or will need to go to another place anyway so you can get other tools and whatnot.
I do usually carry a gallon of water on a trip, in case I was ever to loose coolant. But it doubles as drinking water at some point on the trip.
An extra qt of oil is good, but if you bust something bad enough to need to replace a lot of oil before you can get to a store, you have bigger issues.
Few year back we cruising , and my gas guard stuck at 1/4 , ran out off gas, lucky we have a guy in our crew carry some gas with him. from that way I alway carry a little bit of gas, but yea 2 gallon is little over kill.
and I seen a guy in our crew blow out the oil filter and lucky I carry an extra oil filter and we end up put all our oil together to made up the oil he lost. so yea from that day I alway carry an extra oil filter and at least 2 quart of oil
and about the jack and tool, my car dont come with it, so I just have to use one out off my camaro. and carry my 250 peice of craftman mechanic tool
I should be ok, since we all going driving same type of cars, and we not going alone, about 15 peoples going on this trip.
And to think of the billions of trouble free miles at a hundred million drivers put on each year.
You have to be joking with all that stuff, but to each their own.
