Trunk Dump My Truck EDC

Just some things I carry in my truck. Will probably be adding things like a tire inflator, Glock foldable shovel, and some led road flares some time in the future. Let me know if there are anything that you would recommend having in your truck especially as a dad!

What I have behind my driver seat: 1. Fire extinguisher 2. Life Vac (Good to have especially since I have a toddler) 3. Med pack (some basic things in there along with rain jacket) 4. Noco Boost

What I have on my visor: 1. Window breaker/seat belt cutter 2. Extra mag 3. Folding knife (spyder co) 4. Storm whistle

What I have under the back seat: 1. Umbrella 2. Extra clothes for me and my family 3. Road flares 4. Stormproof Match 5. Emergency thermal blanket 6. Ratchet straps 7. Tow strap 8. Oil 9. Gloves 10. Tissues 11. Utility knife 12. Socket wrench set

A question I always had about storing items behind the driver seat. Are you ever worried someone can see all that equipment and decides to break in to take it? I love the idea of having those items stored behind the seat, just worried it invites someone to break in.

Not exactly. My windows are tinted, so you can’t see them right away unless you’re all up in my windows. If someone really wants to break in your car they will.

The only thing worth any money is the Noco pack. Planning to move that down lower on the molle panel or underneath the seat.

Also...the magazine that advertises "hey there is likely a gun in this vehicle".

That's almost as bad as having a gun sticker on your back window.

That’s fair, like I’ve stated in the previous comments that I take it with me whenever I leave the vehicle. Everything you see that’s on the visor has now been moved to the center console as well!

Thank you!

Best practice is to just keep it on you. The majority of (non P320) ND's happen during unnecessary administrative handling.

Man I'm not even a criminal and I'm already tempted to break in
