    What's everyone keeping in the truck?

    I've never had to pull someone else or myself out yet.

    Wondering what is some good gear to have on had or any tips on proper use?

    I have 4 maxtrax, a shovel, some recovery straps and hitch mounted recovery points. I figure if that can’t get me out, I probably shouldn’t have gone there.

    Some day im sure I’ll add a winch but Im typically not the one getting stuck.

    Add a come along if you don't want the cost or weight of the winch.

    I keep one of these in my toolbox for moving any kind of heavy loads.
