There isn't any gloves in there, but my vehicle registration, insurance card, owners manual, flashlight and bag of wintergreen lifesavers are.

The official glove box is too hard to get at across the truck from me, so it has very little in it. The glove box in the console is too hard to deal with getting open & closed, so it doesn't have anything but stuff I'd need in an emergency, which makes no sense at all, since in an emergency, I wouldn't want to deal with that hard-to-deal with truck console, but maybe in an emergency it would be worth it.

I know the designers weren't trying to be practical because while they were designing a gas compartment which doesn't need a gas cap, lockable or otherwise, they made it so in an emergency, when you run out of fuel, you need this easily lost little plastic tube fitting for the opening to allow a gas can's nozzle access to it.

I have the orignal owner's manual along with proof of insurance, registration, tire pressure gauge, and hopefully soon, a gun. Yes, someday soon I hope to exercise my 2nd amendment rights and become a legal and responsible gun owner.

I looked at that word too quickly and thought you wrote CHARMIN....so then I was wondering what you were doing with a roll of TP in the glove box....and then I got distracted again.

So 12 is my final comment. Now I have to go lay down. I'm pooped!

When I was still working in the construction business, I ALWAYS carried TP in the truck. You just never knew when you'd need it.

Car is new so there's been no time to accumulate much rubbish. Never carried gloves in one, though.

Car info/documents, hand sanitizer, Kleenex, and a pack of condoms. You never know. ;)

You never know when the condoms got too hot in the car and become brittle and useless. You are never to store them in a glove compartment and or your wallet.

i checked the glove box on my old truck.  Was suprised to see shredded napkins, empty ketchup packets, parts of my present registration, and what's is left of a pack of saltine crackers!  Looks like I  had a mouse visitor. He, she, they had a little party and bedded down for a while, and left.  Since we have mice that carry hantavirus in this part of the desert I'll be bleach spraying my glove box and then vacuuming up what left!  Well, I hope they at least had fun!

Hi Kop!!! Those little rascals wreak havoc on my air filters.

Try a K&N air filter. They are rubber, metal, and cotton fiber that is washable, gives better gas mileage, and don't have to be replaced. Because you wash them and spray them with oil the critters won't eat them. There lind of pricey but well worth IT,
