That old saying – use the right tool for the job – probably came from a guy working on his prized ride. Since we know our readers are the type to have their own must-haves in the Dodge Garage, we asked fans on Facebook what the most essential items are. Here are some of the best answers you gave us:

• Spare Parts – (via William Brandon Burke) – Whether you’ve got a pet project you’ve been cranking away on, or you’re just an all-around gearhead, it pays off to have the right part at the right time.

• Service Manuals – (via Andrew Frisby) – Andrew keeps a catalog of service manuals from the 20’s – 70’s for his favorite Dodge vehicles. If you get stumped on a project, it’s always helpful to have fast access to history to help you get it figured out.

• Accolades – (via Jared Miller) – Dodge has a few awards under our belt, and you likely do, too. Show off the trophies, plaques and other accolades you’ve accumulated over the years and you’ll always have a goal in mind.

• Fridge – (via Denette Sundby) – It’s one thing to keep your vehicle fueled and tuned, but if you’ve got to keep yourself fueled and tuned, too. Rather than tracking grease all over the kitchen, keep a fridge in your garage to store frosty beverages and snacks.

• Music – (via Rich Klasen) – Rich prefers the stylings of Van Morrison to keep him concentrated on his projects, but anyone who finds themselves in the garage for hours at a time knows the value of having a good stereo playing their favorite tunes. Rock, blues, country or hip-hop – play what you love while you do what you love.
