    Where do y'all keep all your stuff?

    So I cleaned out the inside of my truck today and noticed how much crap I carry around, I carry around a 4-way, socket set, tool bag, a gallon of coolant, 2 quarts of oil, a quart of trans fluid, jumper cables, the factory jack, and on top of that I have my amp behind the back seat. I don't really like to not carry any of that stuff because I hate being stranded on the side of the road and I'll likely add a serpentine belt into the mix soon.



    What do y'all do for the stuff you carry around? I've been thinking about getting a tool box like this (in black of course) that sits in the bed rather than on top of the bed rails to carry all this stuff around.

    I keep a small crescent set under the seat. Never know when someone you know that doesn't own a Chevy will break down.

    I used to carry a jack and large ratchet set. Now that I removed the spare and don't carry one I have taken all of the tools out. I do have towing with my discover card however so if I need a tow the first 150 miles are free. If I'm going that far I will usually take tools and anything else I may need with me in the bed.
