What are some good things to keep in your truck at all times?

 

Fire extinguisher, tie downs, tow straps, first aid kit, flashlight, blanket, jumper cables. And some basic tools.

 

Also some spare parts, like an ignition coil and an FPDM.

 

A jacket, gloves, a hat a few water bottles if you do long trips more water, snacks and possibly an MRE meal. Extra batteries for the flashlight.

 

Gun.

 

A extra quart of oil for those long trips. Good ol 5.4 likes to eat oil a little bit when its angry

 

Gasoline...

 

Here's what's in my tool chest in the bed: fully stocked tool box, including zip ties, duct tape, gloves, shop towels, rubber bands, then I have a compressor, jumper cables, tow chains, jumper battery box, tow strap, d-rings, 100ft of rope, tie downs, fuses, a lot of flashlights/worklights, military folding shovel, regular shovel (short version), tire pressure gauge, power inverters, first aid kit. I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff but you get the idea. When I'm offroading I have a tote I pack with me that's full of spare parts. Also bring two 5 gallon dump cans full of gas. In the interior I have a fire extinguisher on quick release mount and a vhf radio.

 

I have a few extra napkins in the glove box.

 

Best tip by far. I spilled a chick-fil-a milkshake on myself in the truck the other day...no napkins..... needless to say it was a traumatizing experience
