Here's some more ideas:
There's a lot more but that's all I can think of atm.
Post tordado there will likely be collapsed buildings and down power lines I would imagine a truckers friend being useful in that scenario

I'd bring this. http://www.amazon.com/Innovation-Factory-Truckers-All-Purpose-Survival/dp/B005HAT9SM
shut up and take my money!
edit: Temporarily out of stock.
This looks handy in case of zombies. But I am a bad picker because the zombies ate my brains!
Thanks for the fun contest!
This. In function it's kind of an obvious choice, but it looks really strange.
A truckers friend is always handy. https://smile.amazon.com/Truckers-Friend-Purpose-Survival-Tool-Made/dp/B005HAT9SM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1479408550&sr=8-1&keywords=truckers+friend
> Datrex or SOS energy bars store well in a vehicle and provide 2-3 days' worth of food per brick.
This really is the perfect suggestion for food in a car. Walmart has the Mainstay 2400 bars in store for about $5 apiece. -40 to +300 degrees and a 5 year shelf life. No water needed to prepare. Just munch and move. I would recommend enclosing each bar in a gallon ziploc bag though. With the Mainstay bars at least they are not individually wrapped, so once open they can crumble and get everywhere.
I also have a Trucker's Friend in the trunk in case there's a downed tree. I'm not going to be hacking apart a huge monster of a tree by any means, but it's nice to have the option be there if it's something manageable and it has a few other tools on it as well.
My Sig516.
My Glock 22, same gun that all the cops in the surrounding areas use, plenty of ammo and mags.
And I have a Trucker's Friend.
Just in case anyone would rather get it through Amazon.
I have thought about putting together an "urban" kit something like this:
A variety of different bump keys
Easy to carry set of lock picks
A multi-functional silcock key to access water
A "truckers friend" combination crowbar, axe, hammer
Sawzall blade handle and various blades for cutting metal and wood
And a good pair of gloves
I think this would cover all my bases and be able to get me into or out of pretty much anywhere I can expect to be, but it's a lot of equipment so I think it may be overkill

I added a Truckers Friend to my whish list when I saw it in a previous post
Well I guess hammer but it has to be this Innovation Factory IF-221 Trucker's Friend USA Made All-Purpose and Survival Tool https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005HAT9SM/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_Ajl-ub1P8MVCQ
Or another good one would be an ice axe used for ice climbing. Omega Pacific Mountain Axe, 70cm https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002J8YMEQ/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_Qml-ub0K20MJM
I have a kukri and small saw. I've played around some with the Trucker's Friend and don't have any complaints about it yet. I bought it to try it out as a general multi-purpose tool. But in general, I am going to the kukri first.
What I love about the Amazon listing is two actual tools that are shown in the similar items section. They're a third of the MSRP and far more practical.

Get yourself one of these. I can think of 1000 valid reasons to have one in the car so cops aren't really going to be able to ping you for it, and a methhead pan-handler isn't going to argue with anyone waving this thing in their face.
