GADGETS IN THE WILD

I’ll be sleeping under the stars this weekend, and as a tech lover there are more than a few camping gadgets I’ve been eying. But when it comes to most wilderness gear, I know I’d probably only use them once a year. That’s where these multipurpose car accessories come in–-I don’t feel bad splurging on something I can use for camping or for any old road trip.

Car Cozy 2

He’s too hot, she’s too cold. This electric blanket will save your relationship. Plug it into the cigarette lighter and the extra-long cord can wrap up a passenger in warm goodness or snake out to a campsite.

Black & Decker Auto Pivot Vac

This cigarette lighter-powered vacuum cleaner can clean up your car after a hiking trip or just after a fast food-filled road trip. No more runaway French fries or straw wrappers.

Wagon Deluxe Ergo Rest Back Massager

Turn your campsite-–or a traffic jam- into a spa day with this chair accessory. Heat waves and massaging motors will dissolve any aches and pains from a long drive.
