Waaaaaay too anal-compulsive, IMO....... S70 1998

To celebrate the 100,000 mile mark I changed the oil, washed the car and stuck on the 100,000 mile medallion.

I carry a roll of duct tape in the back, and a cell phone in the console. I also have the "premium" AAA towing service with 100 free miles. If you're really paranoid you could buy a few feet of extra vacuum tubing, but I don't think it's necessary. If you and to replace worn and aged pieces you could replace most of the car at this point. or just buy a whole new one, that would be cheaper. I replace the pieces when they fail or start to look really funky, I'm planning on a premature serpentine belt replacement because it's starting to look funky and I'd rather replace it early than in the middle of a snowstorm.
