What are maybe some of the out of ordinary things that you keep on your truck that make your trucking experience a little more pleasant? I recently purchased a $1500 fully electric bike that will go up to 30 miles on a charge and it folds down to the size of a suitcase. You’d be surprised how many places that are about 5 miles away or less and I can hop on this bike and be there in minutes. When they were out of reach before.
another thing I have is an all in one espresso cappuccino maker that you can brew a shot of espresso and foam some milk to make yourself a latte. It’s a compact little thing and works pretty darn good.
small grill, etc.
Anything that makes your life more enjoyable, whether it be entertaining or necessity wise, what do you keep on your truck?
Gadgets or unusual but handy stuff that you keep on the truck.

Just recently bought an 18v impact drill driver. I'm always replacing trailer mudflaps and the driver makes whipping off bolts and drilling holes in mudflaps a breeze.

1/4” die grinder from Harbor Freight. Some 3” cutting wheels. Runs off Truck air pretty good. Have to stop a bit, to let the air build up. With a little patience, cuts bolts if needed. I’ve used it quite a bit.

Parts, pieces, and tools to get truck through trip and hopefully to the house.
Always a good feeling to repair or at least patch break downs on road without expense of paying for road service.
Not a luxury to most people, but this kind of stuff is more important to me than luxury .T.Rucker, jason6541, Lennythedriver and 2 others Thank this. -
Currently I don’t have anything too cool. Dewalt vacuum cleaner and impact driver have made my life easier.

Portable Tocmoc vacuum that cost like 85 with a coupon. I swear it has more suction than some standard cord vacuums. And a portable speaker since i need a new radio with Bluetooth. Don't need much in the truck being home daily
Besides the usual assortment of tools to get by in a pinchbentstrider83 and Lennythedriver Thank this. -
