I typically have a handgun and pocket knife on me, but I also keep a .38sp j-frame and a couple speed strips in the truck, as well as my old Buck 110 lockback.

Other "essentials" that are always in the truck:
Fenix headlamp and spare battery
Lighter
3-4 bottles of water
granola bars
Change of clothes
Hiking shoes
Fire extinguisher
Folding saw
200ish piece Crapsman tool set
2lb hammer
2 min epoxy
Tow straps
Ratchet straps
Tri-ball mount
Spare fuses
Jumper cables
Emergency air compressor
Tire plug kit
$20 cash
Extra credit card
$4 in quarters
Rain jacket
Duct and electrical tape
All kinds of zip ties in all sizes
1st aid kit
Tire thumper bat
Phone charger and extra USB cords to fit Apple and Android phones
Blanket (just in the winter)

It's amazing how much room is in these trucks, aside from the few smaller items in my console and the fire extinguisher in the rear door pocket, everything else fits either under the rear seats or behind them out of sight. I've been contemplating throwing an old .22 behind the seat as well.

Lately its been my G30SF (.45) with a spare mag in the center console (sadly work doesn't allow firearms on the grounds).

Currently the truck only has my daughters car seat in it, safety glasses for work, a coffee mug, and some spare coins, oh and a pack of gum lol

I haven't moved my BoB into my truck yet, but that includes

1 Hatchet
1 Pair of socks
1 Roll of TP
1 pump water filter
1 Empty bottle that purifies water as you drink it
1 bottle of water purifying tablets
1 First aid/trauma kit
2 loaded G17 17 round mags
50 rounds of 9mm ammo
1 Pair of ripstop pants
Zipties
2 solar blankets
1 fire starter
5 fire starter tablets (for when things are wet)
1 camelback bladder
1 Gerber Multi-tool
8 plastic tent stakes
2 MRE's (which need to be replaced)
