I am going through my tools and such that I carry with me in my truck for off roading/backcountry travel. I have a 2006 F150, lifted, beefy bumpers and winch, shell on back with roof rack. Would like to hear what others use/carry. I have been trying to lean out some tools and such and no reason to bring the kitchen sink. - Pliers, side cutters, needle nose, vice grips, open ended wrench - 3 lb dead blow hammer - duct tape, electrical tape - zip ties in various sizes - bailing wire - screw driver with multiple bits - bastard file - few hose clamps - 3 different sizes of pry bars - 1/2 torque wrench - 1/2 socket wrench with downstep to 3/8 - 1/2 breaker bar - 1/4 small socket set (5/32-9/16 in., 4-14 mm) - 3/8 Metric deep sockets 10 - 19 - combination wrench set 8mm - 22mm - hex / allen keys - gloves - tire repair kit - 6 ton bottle jack from Safejack - shovel, rake, axe - battery pack/jumper - using the anitgravity pack (https://antigravitybatteries.com/productline/micro-starts/) - set of jumper cables - 4 4x4 blocks of wood for chauks or base for bottle jack - fuse/wire connectors Recovery gear: - winch - kenetic rope - soft shackles - tree saver - tow strap - snatch blocks - traction boards Next big buy is a 10lb power tank, and getting impact gun and a long hose to get to my flexbow tent and screw down the lab bolts. Things I'm thinking about - 3/8 and 1/2 impact sockets (probably not a set, but buying offs for the few things like lug nuts etc.) Depending on season ie., winter, I just add 2 sets of chains, snow shovel, snow broom and warm crabbing gloves for clearing snow/chaining up.

there are so many things we carry and we forget we have them I have trauma kits in both rigs within easy reach, but out of sight out of mind. I have been making up some kits to have charging cables for phones, flashlights, GPS etc.. and including a power bank to charge if needed. Problem with all the cords, not all makers are on USB C, so your stuck with variety of cords for devices. I put all these into the magpul daka pouches, so far have 3 done, keep 2 in cars, 1 for traveling. My travel setup has either a leatherman wave + or if needing slim down, put in a Gerber Dime or Leatherman Squirt S4. Even at work I kept a few MRE's, trauma kit in case needed.

My wheels have spline key and have a few spares at home and in the truck. I actually have been thinking about going back to the acorn nuts to use more common sockets instead of spline keys. some how shop loses the key when doing rotations etc... As far as getting impact sockets in metric, are there more common sizes that are used more often?

good call on jumpers, I do have cables and the battery pack that I have used a few times. I tried to air up truck after it was fully loaded with a 12v and wouldnt air up, too much weight, had to run to Discount Tire and have them fill me up. Hence my next buy is the Power Tank. I added the updates to my list. The big lesson I learned was not to keep my kit all the way in back of truck with all coolers and camping gear packed in front. Was the biggest cluster to unpack and repack just to get to tools. Now I keep them in the back seat, where it is super easy to access now.

We got to do a tour today of SoFi stadium, home of the RAMS! Went thru suites, seats, locker rooms for Rams and Chargers, I found my way into Rams coaches locker rooms and found Sean McVay head coaches locker/office before being kicked out lol. Was able to see the Chargers Medical Room, sterile room, was told they can even do surgery there. Played on the field for about 30 minutes, throwing the ball around and just having fun! Able to run out of the Rams tunnel onto the field. Sit/stand Rams sideline, well and Chargers side too. Lol What an impressive stadium, from design, to amenities and wow the suites were awesome, but the Owners Club suites/lounge was killer. Private elevator own kitchen/bar and well appointed.

Ha that is classic.

Best shot I got.

The lake had a stink to it yesterday, yet lots of drunks go for a swim in it.

Nice setup, a truck built up to be used as intended. But Carli does make a really really nice product.

No pictures, didnt happen! But Im always in for some tail and leg.

Christmas butterflies were an absolute hit with my nieces, my sister and brother-in-law loved the craftsmanship! Thanks for the memories, best of luck to your son on his hunt. Andrew
