What tools should be in a Tool Kit?
I decided I needed to put together a tool kit that I could keep in the trunk, which could be used for the most common problems I might encounter on long trips. I have a 2020 E450, but I assume that when it comes to necessary tools, they should pretty much be the same across models and years. Any suggestions for complete Tool Kits or individual tools?

I'm not much of a mechanical person, but I'll say that a good set of Torx drivers are worth a million dollars. A basic set of Torx drivers have saved my butt on numerous occasions. Removing air filter casing, etc.

What would (could) you fix on any modern car, when breaking down ?
Apart from changing a tire i don't see what tools you would require on the road ?
