    I'm interested in seeing setups behind people's seats, specifically for those who have standard cabs. I don't have a picture of my set up (yet), but I have a wrench and socket set for my lug nuts that I assume to be stock as well as a tackle box full of tools and my "bug out" bag.

    Who has subs or rear storage? Would love some ideas!

    Coverking tactical seat covers. Just installed them. Take advantage of the limited room behind the seats. eed97f177c79c121539f5aee39ec65ce_1a3dccdcd402c11abd357a1e3b113579594b7a8d.jpg

    Couple tow straps
    Got a big 12" sub behind pass seat. Want to eventually replace that with two 10's or 12's mounted in the tool cubbies. Shallow mounts.
    Eventually make a storage unit back there. To clean it up and have more storage room.
    Put together a recovery bag.


    Also, @mohavestubbs I'm interested in your bug out bag contents. Just getting into the whole personal protection world and purchasing a firearm soon. Got my ccw a while back. And that "survivalist" mindset kinda goes along with that self defense mindset and will probably soon find myself engrossed with anything and everything related to that. So starting to research some good things to keep an eye out for, like necessities to carry in the truck in that regard. Any good sources to check into? Any good threads here that you may know about? So I don't thread jack;)

    That's a Whynter 65 qt. It is really a bit too big for the space. I ended up removing that back panel and the jump seats so it would fit a little better. Their 45 qt model would fit better without modifications.

    Eliminating the need for ice and its associated mess is sweet.

    Milk Bones, sling shot, pair of gloves and a roll of TP behind the seat.
    In the storage space, if you can call it that, my original alternator as a spare, jumpers, lug wrench, stock jack and the bag of tools for removing the spare, and a couple quarts of oil.

    The recovery gear resides in the bed.

    Both are Stock - built correct from the start.

    Toendanger, There's a pile of good sites out there on the bug out bag subject. But, a good one to start at, which I like is:
