Tons of bandages and tapes, SAM splints, safety masks for mouth to mouth resucitation, ice packs, etc. It was jokingly referred to as my survival kit. Our troopers generally only carry the little automotive first aid kits. I had a really well stocked one for years because my girls played softball and there were a lot of injuries - mostly minor. We were also active with the local volunteer fire department - more injuries. We don't have much in the way of emergency services way out here (911 tells us to call the sheriffs office directly - they don't serve our area) so we got pretty self reliant.
We are too old to be much help with the fire department and our girls are grown, so I don't carry much in the car anymore, but the motor home is pretty well stocked. You never know!
