Regular cab. Everything is in the glove box, console, or under/behind the seats. All I really need is the cell phone, duct tape, and a BFH (you can fix just about anything with duct tape and a hammer)

Nothing. The only thing I do have is a camera in case I get into an accident or see some funny looking rice. Its great having a single cab.
