Primarily disposable
Right now, 6x each of disposable in my cooking box and one metal knife for penut butter.
Pros- cheap, light, compact
Cons- low melting point, brittle
They are really easy to clean so disposable is kinda optional.
I carry both a truck scissor jack and a farm jack. Chrysler's scissor jack wasn't enough for a stock vehicle. With new tires it doesn't even touch.
The farm jack is one of my favorite tools but it comes with an "*" and a foot note. The machine is a spreader, not a lifter. It creates space...
I also use them around camp for tents and shade but wouldn't trust them for hauling because they slip.
They also have a product that is a giant twist tie, stiff copper wire with a thick rubber coating. Those are great for everything.
Just got done going through the dash cam video, unfortunately the memory was only large enough for the last 20 min and the camera is so cheap that it isn't worth keeping.
In central Texas, we get frozen precipitation a few hours every few years. When we do get it, it immediately turns to ice. Even for experienced drivers, it isn't worth going out. Not that you'll get in a wreck but that some knucklehead in a hurry and with no concept of physics will catch you...
My mom got a Coleman version that we tried out in a camping trip to lake Calaveras. It worked ok but the oven didn't really get hot enough for biscuits and the red on silver labels were difficult to see under lamp light. Conditions were low 50s, rainy, still but occasional breeze.

Probably won't find anything in Texas because there aren't many places to go, unless you are in east TX. Off road parks are limited and the state parks are fully paved and filled with RVs.
Anyone that had cooked on the cheap bottle top burners has probably watched in horror as the meal starts to lean...but it is hard to argue against the nice, uniform flame they put out.
So here was today's after work project.
Started with a square of heavy expanded metal that I cleaned up and...
Figured I'd share this since it isn't a well known program. Might have some new places for some.

The KO2s didn't hurt my patriot (FDI) much. The jeep didn't have acceleration to begin with so "slower" is difficult to gauge, no numbers. I do have numbers for cruising rpm and mileage. For mileage, unloaded I was typically getting 22 mpg, now I regularly get 23.
The tires introduced 6% error...
