Hey look, it’s Swag Swednesday again, so it’s time for one lucky Autopian Member – maybe, no probably YOU! – to win free loot from our many years of collecting free crap from Automakers just because they were giving it away at some car show or something. You remember how and why this all works, right?
Each week (approximately, we’re going to miss some probably), we’ll kick down some sweet, sweet swag to Autopian Members, the cool-kids club for car people that you really should have joined by now. What’s the holdup? You can get in on the fun with a Cloth Tier membership for a mere seven bucks a month (or break off $50 to cover the year, and it works out to way less than five dollars a month – it’s like 14 cents a day!).

Yes, it’s all a ploy, you see, a ploy to get more members by giving away free crap! And boy do we have some crap to give away this week! If you’re a Jeep fan, you might actually appreciate this one: a never-used 2014-vintage Jeep Media kit from the Los Angeles Auto Show!
This isn’t any normal media kit, though: Jeep calls it “Emergency Supplies” and it’s a green zip-loc bag with a Jeep bandana, bandages (in a neat little dispenser), hand sanitizer (a solid five years before COVID made that stuff ubiquitous!), and a little flashlight! It’s a mini survival kit! From Jeep! Eleven years ago!
Here’s what the package looks like:
…and here’s what’s inside:
Incredibly, the flashlight still seems to work!
Oh, and I also found this scrawled note next to the Jeep Media Pack thing:
I think it was an idea for a joke about Google Cavity Searches, as in a new feature from Google for expanded search options. Either that, or I wanted to learn more about cavity searches? I think it was just a joke idea. I hope. Anyway, if you also want that note, we can throw it in the box along with a signed letter of authenticity.
Oh, and that black furry thing on the pic is the tail of my cat, Tomato. It alarmed Pete:
I can’t throw in the tail, but maybe some shedded fur, if you ask nicely.
