Whatever you choose to put in your bug out bag, always make sure it fits the purpose of a bug-out bag. For example, if you live in Alaska then you're bag may concentrate more on cold weather survival gear and less on sub-tropical gear like my bag. You should also look at the safety of the area you live in and build your bag accordingly. For every day stateside life, a bug-out bag is more likely to be something I use if I become stranded in my vehicle, since where I live is not as susceptible to major crime or violence in the streets, thus I doubt I will be evacuating to a safer area. Your situation may be different. If you live in the city and government collapses with anarchy in the street, then you may need to set your BOB up more for E&E so you can escape and evade the idiots until you make it to my house. So, adding tools to "acquire" a vehicle, or to fend off the thugs while escaping may be something you need to look at. Lastly, don't forget to have emergency cash and a credit card stowed inside the bag.
