FINALLY!! Someone said what I've been thinking since this thread started!

I agree that it doesn't hurt to take a few things along, especially on a longer trip. But gee whiz, if you're going to take the whole shop along with you, then you may as well just drive the truck around the yard, where the shop is always nearby!
