I was carrying a regular extinguisher in my car for a while...until i lost it :doh:

what would be nice is getting some co2 tanks and setting up the interior and engine bay of the car with nozzles ...hmmmmmm

:angry:

even if its something youll never use, if i ever had to use a FIRE extuingisher, in either my car or truck, id like to thing its a quality unit, that i could trust to work right, everytime, either to save the vehicle, or god forbid, the occupants. also, its nice to know you have one handy if something ever arises, regardless if its related to the camaro or not.

They're pricey...but do these work that much better than the cheapos from Autozone?
Also.... is a 1 lb. bottle enough for a car? Or is the 2.5 lb. necessary?

Im sure the 1lb bottle is fine.... theres also a 1.5 pounder. personally i have the 2.5 pound in the Nova. i dont mind the extra bulk, and the peace of mind is worth it IMO.
