Yeah like Bellydumper said TP! Wet wipes are great too! It was always mandatory for me to keep a bottle of hand sani. in pocket door of my truck. This way whenever I got into the truck "squirt squirt" and I was good to go!
Green machine it looks like those are the two most important items to have with you on a truck! -

I forgot:
Hard Hat
Wrap around sunglasses
Safety Vest
Ear mufflers (I got mine at Harbor Freight, but I heard Walmart has a cheap pair that'r good)
Your company should provide this stuff unless they are cheap like Roehl or somebody. Then they charge or you gotta pick it up at a truckstop on your dime. -
Always have a couple paper towels folded up in your back pocket. Then when you hit a crapper that has no TP, you will be covered. And it will happen, trust me.
chompi, Lady K and Flying Finn Thank this. -
Make sure that atlas is a commercial driver atlas, black cover, and don't know if it was mentioned, FLIPFLOPS for the shower, uber important! if everybody would wear 'em in the showers we wouldnt need em. A binder for your trip packs and log books, and make sure that jug is a wide mouth, cause the pressure will blow your nuts off, ha.
chompi Thanks this. -
