LOL nope I was wondering if anyone was going to ask... There is not always a tree close by when you get stuck. So if you use the boat anchor for a 9k pound boat poof instant anchor point to attach the winch... But I like the hybrid boat thing too...

Two shovels, hi-lift, clevis, 30ft tow chain, 20,000lb recovery strap, bolt cutters, sledge hammer, axe, 5 gallon gas can, 5 gallon water can, 20lb fire extinguisher, pair of 3ton jack stands, 20ton hydraulic jack, tire chains, c-clamps, pry bar, 4 way lugnut remover(dunno what its called), underseat tool box with the usual tools, breaker bar, torque wrench, various fuses, several rolls of different gauge wires, solder, flashlights, first aid kit, and a "go gag" thats has extra clothes and such, mummybag (sleepingbag), tarp, speed square, 3ft level, hand saw, wedge, flares, MRE's, TP<---A must have, and a couple other normal items.

Then there is the not so normal items that i carry, such as-Turnout (aka bunker gear), SCBA and mask, med bag with O2 bottle, 150ft of 7/16 rope, dozen climbing carabiners, two reflective vests, various lengths of tubular webbing, climbing harness (as a backup), more flashlights and batteries, lock pics and some items for opening vehicle doors (what, i'm a firefighter not a theif)...I'm missing some stuff but I think that summs up most of the Items that I carry with me all the time in my truck.

Sounds like alot but i can still carry 6 passengers in the cab(circus pic)!

Oh and a first aid kit and CPR mask

Haha, that's the usual reaction i get! Odly enough that isn't much. Most of them fit in the tool chest in the bed and the rest fit under the seats or side pockets. Let's just saw that I've gotten pretty good at tetris(I'll get some pics of my hiding spots) Nice to meet a brother firefighter, stay safe!
