    This is what "everyone" should keep in their truck??? :crazy:

    I'm pretty sure that was the question... not what YOU keep in your truck. :facepalm:

    Two gallons of water, rudimentary tools, change of clothes, hiking boots, flashlights, tomahawk in the cab (would be a shotgun but that don't fly here in Cali), 36" wrecking bar, space blanket, US Army survival manual, fire extinguishers both in the cab and in the bed, spare sunglasses. Spare iPhone and USB charging cables in the glovebox. Sunscreen. Folding shovel is on the "adding soon" list. Getting a shell tomorrow, so I'll be adding a mattress and sleeping bag. Old enough I need to start carrying a pair of reading glasses in the cab as well, dammit.
