Look after your tires, and they’ll look after you. Maintaining the proper tire pressure for your vehicle promotes optimal longevity and performance. While this gauge from Viair is oriented toward overlanders who air down their tires before venturing off-road, it remains suitable for everyday use as well.

A portable tire inflator lets you skip your local gas station and air up easily. Great for apartment dwellers and mobile usage, the Viair 88P is a fantastic tool for keeping your tires at the right pressure. The included alligator clips allow you to power the compressor directly from your car battery, meaning you can add air essentially anywhere.

Contrary to popular belief, wiper blades are one of the most important parts of your vehicle. At some point, we’ve all been caught in a torrential downpour so aggressive that the wipers can’t clear the water fast enough. In our testing, these wipers from Michelin were easy to install and provided a considerable performance advantage compared to your existing set. Unlike many wipers on the market, the endurance XT applies a hydrophobic coating as it runs along the glass to improve clearing ability.

Keeping your windshield clean can improve the performance of your wipers, but nothing beats a dedicated hydrophobic coating. Rain-X is often referred to as the industry standard, but this kit from Adam’s Polishes includes everything you need to clean and coat your windshield—the kit includes glass cleaner, glass sealant, two applicator pads, and two microfiber towels.

This jump starter from Michelin will get you home following the unfortunate event of a dead battery, and it doubles as a power bank. Small enough to fit in your trunk or even underneath a seat, this power pack gives you peace of mind on long road trips through remote areas.

Although flashlights don’t jump to the top of the list for automotive gadgetry, I’ve found them invaluable in countless situations. Whether you’re changing a flat tire in the middle of the night or setting up camp after a long journey, it’s important to see what you’re doing. This pocketable flashlight shines up to 600 lumens, an impressively bright beam for its size.

A thermos is a great passive solution for keeping your coffee warm, but for a fresh cup mid-road trip, get the BruTrek OVRLNDR. After brewing, a clever system called Bru Stop seals the beans at the bottom from your coffee up top. This prevents the sour taste associated with coffee that sits for an extended period of time. However, for someone like me who consumes coffee quite rapidly in the morning, I would like to have a slightly larger cup. Thankfully BruTrek’s Basecamp doubles the 24 fl oz capacity of the OVRLNDR but will set you back another $20.
