One thing I found very useful is a small star bit kit. For snugging up interior panels that like to work loose and rattle.

Pull in on a Friday night and inframe an 855 Cummins using nothing but a crescent wrench, a screwdriver, a pocketknife and a hammer.
Finish it on Sunday, go in and shower and be ready to roll on Monday. -
Schneider will probably not mind if you carry a couple adjustable wrenches to fix a mudflap.
