I usually carry a quart of oil there, and in winter, the tire chains. I would recomend wrapping the stuff in an old towl and fastening it down somehow, as I don't think you really want this stuff sliding into the wiper motor. I would also recomend against putting highway flares and tools under there, unless wrapped against the elements. It may not be the dryest place in the world. Another trick: keep an old rag under the hood in an out of the way but easily accesable place (I tuck it behind a battery cable where it attaches to the frame) for use when checking the oil. Saves a lot on hankerchieves and pant legs. The Knight In Glowing Phosphor, Doug Monroe Sequent Computer Systems {ogcvax,cdi,verdix}!sequent!monroe
