 Galletita, go to the nearest Canadian Tire and look for the battery section.  Buy the biggest cables you can buy.  Remember, when you get your next car you'll just move it from one trunk to another.  They'll be with you forever.

Don’t waste your money on PORKERIAS – they are a waste of money… only good for emergency times, so you get to use them what 1, 2, 3 times in a 10 year span (unless you don’t learn the first, second or third time, in which case you DO deserve to freeze your ass!)… LOL

Well, itz the same scenario with me ... I still live with my parent's so my dad does all the car thing so in reality I just DRIVE the car, oh and put gas  .... getting to places is a challenge as I tend to get lost


But I think I will ask about changing oil, and the tire just in case ...

DulceG-- you can find these kits at canadian tire, they vary in size and prize, so pick one that suits you. But the cables AND a spare tire if possible, you should always have.


Galletita, tell me you always have a spare tire in your car along with the "gato" to change it !

You should ALWAYS have thos ones with you ! and since we're close to the P.N, think about the little survival kit (a candle, matches(no lighter), energy bar, water(even if it freeze)and a small but warm blanket)
