Storage compartment

So what does everyone keep in the storage compartment in the rear of their 4Runner?

I keep a slew of stuff, maybe 2 slews.

Those rear side cubbies hold fluids, aerosol cans of stuff and the jack.

I have a 2 drawer cargo box I built with recovery gear, EMS gear, tools, survival/outdoor gear, spare parts and suce as well as random stuff like flares, an inverter and a compressor. There is tons more stuff, too much to list.

On the outside of the box, i have a hi'lift jack, AFFF fire extinguisher and 10L of fresh water in a jug.

There is more stuff up front, to much to list.

the storage compartment on my 3rd gen is pretty small, all I keep in there are 2 shackles and a tow strap. Everything else just gets thrown in the cargo area.

Lets see... in the back of my truck in the compartments, there is an amp, a power inverter, wires, a distribution block, cb antenna stuff, tools, 151 rum, ziplock full of lint, and some jumper cables. In the back area there are 2 tool boxes with just aobut everything you need to fix anything, a huge first aid kit, fire extinguisher, small 12VDC air compressor, 2 flashlights, batteries, emergency blanket, sleeping bag, prybar, cumalong (i don't think thats how you spell it, but you get the idea, now get your head outta the gutter :-p), ammo box with a 25ft chain, couple beer cans, trouble light, 2 extension cords, poncho, gloves, another blanket, and i think thats it.

also, tools, hitch parts, fuel addative, flares, jumpers, leather gloves. (first aid kit is too big, I carry a first responder pack)

I asked about putting subwoofer's in there but the guy wanted to charge me 300 each side just to install a couple of JL 8w0's so really not worth it to me.
