What's your choice for a "car" utlity knife?

I keep an old Leatherman in the console. And I've always got a folder in pocket and a Sean O'Hare River knife attached to my maxi bag that goes with me every time I get in truck. Also have an old Gerber muti tool in that bag, so at least those 4 are always in my truck when I am. usually a Dozier AK Traveler on my belt as well.
 
I keep several knives in my vehicle; a custom Ranger RD 4, Victoinox Rescue knife, and a Delica 4 that has custom scales.
 
A 4" fixed blade with thin leather-wrap handle that I made myself. It's strapped to the driver's side visor.
 
A multi-tool in the glovebox, a griptillian in the dash and a 4 inch fixed blade behind the seat. IIRC, the latter is a Scott Cook
 
A Leatherman supertool in the trunk and a Jeep brand rescue knife in the dash. The Jeep knife has a slot for cutting seat belts and a metal point on the end of the handle for breaking glass. The slot is worthless, but I've sharpened the blade so that it will cut any seat belt or webbing. It also works great on the cellophane that some products are wrapped in. I leave the Jeep knife in the dash (where one day it may get filched by a parking lot attendant if I don't remember to lock it up, but it only cost $12 so not a big deal).
 
I have a Cold Steel SRK under the emergency blanket on the floor of the back seat; a SAK Deluxe Tinker and a Buck 110 in the center console.
 
I would say a Cold Steel Pocket Bushman.
 
I used to keep a Camillus pilot/survival knife in my console, but that was a fixed blade.

So, what's your folding knife of choice to have in your car? I don't have one, but 'am considering a Spyderco Tenacious or Benchmade 551.

In addition, what kind of use does your car folding knife see on a daily basis?

Thanks

Car = mechanical = multi-tool. My car folder is an original LM Wave - I'd like to see you try and file contact points at 11pm on a wet night with either of your choices. I find I use the pliers and screwdrivers far more often than the blades but the only knives I use on a daily basis are my kitchen knives.
