I have a friend who claims it is a bad idea to carry tools in the car because the car knows, and will force you to use them.
She drove a '78 MGB from Denver to LA and then up to Seattle, and on a subsequent trip out east to New England and back, all without a single tool or spare part in the car, and never needed them.
Of course subsequently she blew a fuel line about 20 miles from home and practically burned the poor thing to the ground, but, hey, stuff happens.
