Skill saw, sawzall, corded drill, flat bar, crow bar, some sanding pads, some saw blades, a box with a ton of drill bits, another box with a bunch of straps, a tote with a bunch of finish stuff (such as putty, finish nails, blue tape, etc.) 2 extra hammers, tool belt with a hammer, tape measure, pencil, square, knife, chisel, chalk box, some nails, possibly a couple of screws.
And that's just what is in there right now. I have a ton of other crap that goes in there (I've been at one job for long enough to leave my stuff there), and even more crap in the cab that I don't want to list, lol.

I need to get another flashlight, when I remember to I bring my stream light home from work but otherwise I don't have one... I'm gonna buy another one to keep in the truck, its rather useless and pretty inconvenient in the tool box, a lot like afire extinguisher.
I should put a saw in my box too, I want bolt cutters might as well get a saw. ha

Oh yea, I have a poncho..
Tre, do you have pics of the lights? or where did you get them? I want something bring and relatively cheap, but still small.
A friend of mine in Wyoming mounted marine speakers into the lid of his box, if I didn't score such a nice one i might have considered it.

for now the space behind my jump seats holds the majority of my crap. 2door Ext. cab..
Good set of jumpers, a tire iron a real bottle jack, one quart of oil.. thats one side..
the other holds my gloves, blue shop towels, a can of break free, an old serp. belt..
my 150 peice craftman tool box sits on the floor right behind the drivers seat( really dosn't take up any room its only 5" tall and the same width as the seat)..
I wouldn't mind hard wiring the charger to my streamlight into the truck, but its already set up for the cig lighter and I like using it in the work truck @ the partime job..
Those streamlights are the poo! when you have 140 lumens at hand.. esp. checking the tail section of a 747 in pitch black snowing weather..
yeah I need a box,, but not untill I get a topper.

I love my Streamlight, I have the Stinger LED. Actually its my second one, i accidentally left my first one wedged in the bumper of a car, so either the guy stole it or its laying on the side of the highway.
I have 3 chargers, I'll probably hard wire my DC charger in the truck this weekend too..
A topper was way out of my price range haha
