2. Bulletpoint Mounting Solutions Cell Phone Mount

What is the one thing that every Mom has in their possession at all times? Yep, cell phone was the right answer. Yeah, we know that there are endless options for you to choose from when it comes to cell phone mounts, but Bulletpoint Mounting Solutions takes the cell phone mount game to the next level. Not only do their systems allow Mom to securely mount her cell phone within arms reach, but most of their kits allow for even more mounts to hold a tablet that many use for a GPS or even a mount for a GoPro to capture all of the cool action on the trail.

If your mom has her own off-road rig, check out their products and see if they have the application for it. We’re confident that she’ll love what you got.

3. Husky Floor Mats

Moms tend to like to keep things a little neater and tidier than most of us, so why not help her keep her truck clean with these Husky Floor Mats. Using Husky’s FormFit design process, each liner perfectly forms to the detailed contours of her vehicle. These mats also include StayPut cleats to hold them in place so her carpet stays protected from whatever off-road debris comes in on her shoes.

4. Mechanix Wear "The Original" Gloves

Some of the most valuable items our editorial staff keep in their off-road rigs are a good set of gloves. Whether you’re having to make a trail side repair, handling recovery straps, or picking up litter that someone else left behind, a good set of gloves is essential to keeping your hands protected. This is why we feel getting our favorite off-road Mom’s some Mechanix Wear “The Original” work gloves are a great gift idea for Mother’s Day.

Considered to be one of, if not the best glove manufacturers, Mechanix Wear has put great thought into an affordable and durable work glove. Constructed from their form-fiting TrekDry material, her hands will stay cool and comfortable in the light breathable top fabric, while the seamless synthetic leather palm protects her precious digits from heat, dirt and abrasive surfaces, all while providing plenty of unrestricted movement. The flexible Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) closure ensures a snug fit and is secured with an industrial grade hook and loop strap. 

If Mom likes pink, she’ll love the camo pink color option, and if she doesn’t there are plenty of other options to choose from. 

We speak from experience that these gloves are well worth the cost, and you might just want to order a second set for dad since Father’s Day isn’t far behind.

5. NOCO Boost Plus GB40 Portable Jump Starter

There’s nothing worse than getting a call from Mom or Wife saying that their battery died and they’re stranded. Even more-so when you’re far away from being able to help and who knows when your roadside service will make it to her. The NOCO Boost Plus GB40 is a compact and easy to use battery jumper that will get her back on the road in no time. 

The GB40 portable jump starter is rated to jump start gasoline engines up to 6-liters, and diesel engines up to 6-liters, with its 1000-amp lithium battery pack. Don’t worry about getting wires crossed and seeing sparks since this jump starter features a mistake-proof design and spark-proof technology, and reverse polarity protection. Aside from being one of the best portable jump starters on the market, the GB40 portable jump starter also acts as a portable power bank allowing you to charge smartphones, tablets and other USB powered devices. 

A built-in flashlight provides plenty of light in the event you need some extra light and also acts as an emergency strobe with 7-different light modes, and a 1-year warranty ensures that you’ve got a product you can count on. By far one of the best Mother’s Day gifts you can get to give Mom and yourself a little piece of mind. 

What’s in the box:

• NOCO GB40 Lithium Battery Jump Starter Pack
• HD Battery Clamps
• 12v Car Charger
• Micro USB Charging Cable
• Microfiber Storage Bag and User Guide

6. Boulder Tools Tire Deflators

If your mom has her own rig for off-roading, these will be a welcome addition to her glovebox. The Boulder Tools tire deflators will allow her (or you if you’re nice) to automatically air down the tires to a pre-set pressure. Simply remove the valve stem cap, screw on the tire deflators, and watch everyone else hunch over their tires and stress their knees as they use their keys and tire gauges. Once your tires are aired down, put them back in the storage case and she’s good to go. How reliable are they? In our Best Tire Deflators Buyer’s Guide, we ranked them as the best value since you not only get the deflators, but you also get plenty of spare parts for your valve stems if needed. We’re sure that these will score you some points with your mom.

7. Yescom Rooftop Awning

If your mom loves to get outdoors into the great wide open, she’ll love adding one of these rooftop awnings to her rig. There have been plenty of times we’ve found a great spot for a trailside lunch but the only thing it lacked was some shade to truly enjoy the area. This shade from Yescom solves that problem by allowing you to make your own shade no matter where you stop. This rooftop awning comes with everything you need to mount to most roof racks and measures just over 6’ wide and 8’ long to provide quality shade under the bright sun. Setting up is done within a matter of minutes as is packing it away when Mom is ready to get rolling.

8. Jeep Coasters

If your mom is anything life ours, you’ve been scolded more than once about not using a coaster with your drink. Well now you can class up her vehicle (or yours) with these cup holder coasters emblazoned with the Jeep logo. Heck – if she really loves Jeeps, maybe she’ll want to use them around the house! These coasters can be trimmed to fit all sizes of cup holders and are sold in pairs. They also offer a little cushioning, so they should help eliminate any rattling.

9. Key Chain

Just in case anybody is crazy enough to question your mom’s love of the off-road, this key chain makes a very clear statement that she’s in charge of her Jeep.  The message is simple and direct: “Yes, I am a girl. Yes, this is my Jeep. No, you can’t drive it.” The great thing about this is it will be something she will carry every day and she’ll think of you every time she starts up her Jeep.

10. Tire Repair Kit

Flat tires happen, so help your mom help herself with a flat tire repair kit. This kit from Boulder comes with 30 heavy duty brown plugs that are designed to provide a superior safety seal, pliers, T-handle tools, knife, and a one-year warranty. The kit comes in a solid case that can easily be stored under a seat for easy access when the need arises.

11. Tire Inflator

Once your mom has fixed her flat, she needs a way to get some air in the tire so she can hit the road again. The Slime Heavy Duty Direct Drive Tire Inflator can help. This inflator connects directly your vehicle’s battery and features two cylinders for maximum power. This is Slime’s most powerful inflator and can inflate a mid-size car tire in just two minutes. Other features include a thermal brake to prevent overheating, inline digital gauge, 30-foot total reach, bright LED light, alligator clip power adapters, and aluminum folding handle.
