A big toolbox
Someone who does general home repairs for a living has to carry a whole bunch of tools, because "you never know what next" So, the "toolbox" is sometimes the bed of his pickup. What about when it rains, you say? Right, a cover would be prudent. But Tommy is normally more involved in drumming up business, making estimates and supervising his crew, as opposed to actual hands-on work. So, he doesn't carry the tool outfit on all occasions.
