Well in the toolbox tools of course, a rope, jumper cables, a saw, an extra blade for the saw, a lug wrench, silicone spray, wasp spray, degreaser spray, a machete, a clevis, tie downs.
In the cab: matches, a lighter, two knives, my lc9, bullets for my lc9, my 22, bullets for my 22, cologne, band aids, pain medicine, keys....and that's all that comes to mind without looking thru my truck

Fishing pole and a tackle box pretty much all summer.

Oh, and a paperclip. There's one by the seatbelt where it goes into the 60/40 bench, I can't seem to get it out of there.
