Guys that drive a long ways to hunt, what are your less common(but important) pieces of gear/tools you're sure to keep in the truck?

I ran into a tree like that last December an hour before legal time on a lonnggg dead end road. Busy patch of woods lots of trackers coming for the snow. Pulled my Tacoma up until it was almost touching the tree so I could measure it properly. By the time I was done cutting two other full size trucks were waiting behind me.

When I got to the local bar later that night one of the guys there said "Hey is that your Tacoma outside? Your the guy who cut that big pine?" "Yes sir." "Well, I hate to say this but you kinda screwed me and a bunch of other guys! You cut it too narrow we all had to turn around and hunt somewhere else." I didnt tell him it was intentional! Didn't see another truck or hunter that whole day

Been there!

I cut one out few years ago. Wasnt that big, but big enough. Half way through theres a ford sitting there waiting for me. Then his woman gets out and stops me to tell me that they arent waiting, they just stopped to see if I was ok...whatever.. She just stood there while I whittled away at the thing, stopping me a few more times to give random comments..

Notta lot out there these days that can squeeze through a hole made for a early tacoma..
