What was your best DIY road side repair?
Here is mine. While traveling at night my alternator belt blew. I was able to get off the highway and into a parking lot. I don't have a toad and there was nothing around me that I could walk to....

While hauling the 5th wheel a couple years ago on the freeway, my truck lost almost all power slowing me down to about 10 mph, conveniently between exits. I drove on the shoulder until the next exit (I refuse to work on something on the shoulder if avoidable) and the truck stalled at the top of the exit ramp. My DPF had filled up and never gave me any warning and I drive the truck hard too. I let it cool down for a few and got it restarted and pulled off the road and loosened the exhaust before the DPF and it fired right up. I drove home with a pretty much open exhaust and when I got home, deleted the ****. It has been perfect since (probably 50,000 miles).
