Good luck with a jack. Mines to small for that. Shop towels, that's a good idea you never when you might need some TP out in the wilderness.

Anyone ever think about this....

Let's post ALL the tools and valueables we carry in our trucks out on the internet.... Kind of like a theive's shopping list for everyone to see.

It is like letting anyone know just what is in your truck/box.

Why you're at it can you post what is in your house too? A hit list of your electronics and high ticket items.... thanks and Merry Christmas:santa:

No one would ever do such a thing. (Ya, right...)

It would be kinda hard to find me or my truck because it is always parked in side a secure location most of the time... and when I do got it out, I'm usually around it. Or it is under video surveillance. Rarely is my truck not under the "eyes in the sky"...
