The best Christmas gifts for the motorist

If you spend a lot of time on the road, there's a good chance that under the wrapping paper of your gift is an automobile-related gadget.


Of course, there are some essential gadgets and others that are much less so, the latter often serving a capricious need. In short, here are five that will appeal to any motorist!
Pocket booster
Battery technology has evolved greatly with the portable device wars. Believe it or not, it is now possible to have a booster as big as a cell phone. This gadget can boost your car if it won't start, in addition to being able to charge your cell phone. Two birds with one stone! It will cost you between $ 60 and $ 250, depending on the size and capabilities of the booster.
Locking Hitch Safe
This little safe that you install inside a vehicle's trailer hitch is definitely an original gadget. Keys, cash, credit cards, jewelry… your small items will stay safe in a place thieves are unlikely to look. In addition, the robustness of the safe makes it almost impenetrable. It costs just under $ 100 and is the perfect gift for anyone who tends to forget the keys in the car.
Vroominator
Does your brother-in-law dream of being behind the wheel of a sports car when his daily life is all about driving a minivan? Never mind! This simulator that plugs into the car's CD adapter recreates the rumble of an idling V8 engine and a loud roar when accelerating. The dream come true for less than $ 40!
Drop stop
Cell phone, nuts, gums, coins, fries ... These items have surely already found their way into the almost unattainable space between the car seat and the central space. These unpleasant times are now a thing of the past. This device, at a cost of $ 20 for two bands, will catch up with any object, no matter how small, and the car will also be cleaner!
Vacuum cleaner for the car
For the motorist who has a minivan and children, the hand vacuum cleaner plugs into the 12 V power outlet and is the ideal gift because it can pick up messes (cereal, New Year's confetti, etc.) without having to park in a gas station or remove the vacuum hose from the house. On sale at big box stores for $ 20.
