Good pair of gloves is paramount.
Also, slip in a few extra beer huggies, decent socket set (standard and metric), flash light, jumper cables, bolt cutters, battery operated four piece kit consisting of drill, saw zall, grinder, and skill saw, trash bags, and toilet paper.

I don't have a tool box because like 90% of the those who own them, I don't have a need for it. I would use it maybe 4 times a year and it doesn't make fuel economy sense to carry an extra 200lbs worth of shite. Nor do I need my bed shorter for no reason.
All of the shite I need is in my cab. shite to change my tires, straps and tie downs, and tow straps to pull your heavy asses out of the ditch cause you're too loaded down

Wrenches, jumper cables, tools for changing spare tire, wood blocks, all other tools, electrical wire. Pretty much macguyver

Tire iron\lug wrench, because you never when you will need it.

Tons of shite.
Lots of tow straps, lots of tools, lots of chainsaw stuff, wiring stuff, general things like ratchet straps, pb blaster, electric tape, etc
All impeccably organized in milk crates, trays, and tool bags
Can't have a truck without a toolbox. I use the hell out of it.

No toolbox now. May get one one day.
I would put
jumper cables
Decent jack
Chains of various length
Basic tool set
4x4 blocks or assorted sizes
If anyone can figure out how to keep crap in an aluminum toolbox from getting coated in never seize let me know.

Let's put it this way, my buddies ask me if I'm bringing my truck and if I am they let their wives bring them in their girly autos to the camp.

In the back of the van I keep gloves, rope, tarp, and duct tape.

Enough tools to frame, plumb, and wire a house sans an air compressor. Bungies, ratchet straps, small socket set, jumper cables, and a power inverter.

Tools ect.. and also a first aid kit, and maybe a survival pack, (fire starter, survival blanket, non perishable food, water)...be prepared.
Posted on 8/24/14 at 9:57 pm to Flanders
Big arse caulk gun, hood cover, urethanes, primers, tapes, hand scrubbies. Windshield repair kit, long knife, a couple tools to cut out a windshield, spray paint in case I frick up. Long magnet thingies for dropped screws in door panels. Other crap, I really need to get organizing going on. Backseat is mobile toolbox full of crap, then back of truck I keep air compressor, windshield rack, and stand. My trucks a nervous wreck.

I have everything you have...plus one item....a decent floor jack (2 ton minimum) with enough lift to change a flat. Screw those factory jacks.
Hell, if I could put my racing jack in there...I would. I love that thing...3 pumps and truck's up!

You tool box should be geared towards the activity that you do most in your life. If your a carpenter, fill it with carpentry tools, mechanic likewise. Therefore mine is filled with the following:
Lube
Condoms
Bourbon

All kinds of shite. If I emptied it, I would probably find all kinds of shite that I've been looking for.
