In my quest for repacking fish hooks....and getting dirty knees crawling around in the back of the 1999 truck....dirty from hauling leaves, compost, and mulch from the city site.....Decided it was time for the "spring cleaning".
I carry a lot of stuff in the back and have for many years.....so can be used as a BOV if necessary with bags.. food/ water, stoves, tarps, compressor, and a lot of get unstuck stuff.....

Now as this is the daily driver and doesn't really enter into any Bug out plans, ....unless absolutely necessary....That job is now for Big Red.....and is loaded as well.
Question is...how much stuff do you need to carry....LOl..
I did cut back a lot.....but still am going carry the basics.

Everything out...including 1" Styrofoam for under that rubber mat...insulation for knees, sound, cold and heat.
Works well.
Wash and replace....

Now in the sorting process I repacked the milk crate I like to keep at the tailgate held in by bungees....Tow straps, trailer hitches stingers (3), hold downs, batteries, trouble lights, garbage bags wire ties, WD 40, screwdriver, machete, extension cord, folding trowel, hand warmers, Mora with fire steel....LOL...just about anything I have ever needed standing at the tailgate....I now carry around.....
Milk crate can have stuff attached to the outside(or inside) with small bungees...including electrical tape and duck tape.
.....and hand cleaner/shop rags.

So....Even though I don't use this for many out of town trips....BUT if I took out all "stuff"....you know I would need it tomorrow.
