Mu $.02 worth; Just having a kinetic rope is fine if you are going where someone else might stumble across you. Otherwise you need to get your self out or take your phone for maybe a long walk. My vote is for an electric winch for self recovery. Tell all your friends and family that you want one...
Thanks Bjoern, I've not seen that style before. Can you take a pic of the mounting point, please? Needs holes drilled? Works on leaf spring vehicles? Friend selling them?

I dunno about vehicle safes, I have a well known safe in my closet which I am happy with until the last fires in LA. I saw a guy go to his burned down house and pick up what was left of the same safe and everything inside was destroyed. I'm thinking the best thing is to keep it on you.

Welcome Harvey. My best advice is to take your camping gear and go. Moab is not nearby so forget lift kits and big tyres. Go find a local club to go on local adventures until you learn how yer car works and what you might want to take with you that you don't have already.

Upgrades and tools/spares are entirely dependent on where you plan to go and your repair knowledge level. Least is you should be able to change a fuse and fix a flat.
I was with a group of Rovers in Death Valley one year and one of the Rangies broke a pipe on the suspension. No one had a means...
Angel,
I do all my stuff on a laptop so phones may look different.
There is a How To tab just below the Overland Bound logo in the upper left corner.
