Basic necessities for new FJ?

[FJman]

In anticipation of picking up my new FJ in a couple of days from the dealer, I am thinking of getting some of the basic stuff for my FJ. I know some accessories just aren't available yet since the FJ is just too new but there are some common things needed for any new vehicle. Here's my starter list of things to get when you get your new FJ: Sun Shade for the windshield, 5 wheel locks(need one for the spare!), tire pressure gauge and tow cable. Anyone got anything to add to this list?

McGuire's Next Gen Tech wax. A few coats of this stuff is like a second clear coat, protect that new paint before you even get her dirty! It's on my list.

Moving my tow chain from my Bronco to the FJ.
Jumper cables
Flares
Tool kit
First Aid kit
Fix-a-flat

And a roll of paper towls.

Thanks for additions Bugmenot. I forgot about all those necessities. I just thought about a couple more items to add to the list: a small shovel and some rope. The small shovel is needed in case you have to dig yourself out in case you get stuck and the rope is for tying down cargo.

I'm thinking we're also going to need some kind of box to put all those things in since the FJ only has a tiny storage compartment in the back. It would have be nice if Toyota designed a compartment under the cargo area since there is nothing but a big open area where the spare tire might have been underneath.

I'd wondered what was under there, so you can lift up the floor panel and get to the spare compartment underneath?

Bugmenot, sorry if I wasn't clear. There is no compartment underneath the cargo area but I wish there was. There is a small compartment on the right side panel of the cargo area. I think that might be blocked if you got the subwoofer option though. That space might be big enough only for a jumper cable only. That's why you need box or something to put all these basic necessities in.
