Tote is a master of in-mission improvisation. He's extremely skilled in adapting to changing situations, and coming up with clever methods of getting out of unexpected scrapes.

Highjump takes issue with this, believing that Tote's friendly help is encouraging Mudslinger's aggressive and dangerous behavior. Team leader Powertrain is also a bit concerned that Tote improvises too much, making it difficult for him to stick to their carefully-laid-out plans.[1]
