Chains, oil by the 55 gallon drum, or just 5 gallons. Tool boxes, external tanks, Tools, air compressors, generators, work lights, .... Ooohhh and the list can go on.

the list can go on an on. I get my Rotella oil there. They also sell Diesel Kleen/911. Pick up one of their catalogs. It's a few hours of browsing fun/dreaming.
Also, I got a Mr. Heater Big Buddy there about 2 weeks ago cheaper than I could find it online...

I used to work at the TSC when I was in high school. I used to get my oil there, but even with the discount when I worked there the oil was a little more expensive than Wal-mart has it so I get it from Wal-Mart now. Diesel Kleen is a few bucks more expensive there than my local Advance Auto Parts also. I do get tool boxes, air tools/parts, and some other stuff there. I also got the parts for my traction bars(except the pipe) from TSC. Maybe the prices are a bit different by location, but the oil and stuff at my local TSC is expensive.

They have a internet site, I think they are expensive, but do have a few things that are hard to find locally elsewhere.

I like TSC. I have had good luck with their Valspar enamels, and of course when the tractor shears pins on the bushhog or somehow clips get misplaced they have them. I am not very impressed with their 3pt implements, but hey, you asked about truck stuff... They can be pricey but have some good stuff that can't be found elsewhere

As far as fluids and oils, they are the same anywhere you buy them, so go with the best price.

As far as tools, equipment, compressors, etc, Tractor supply generally has much better quality parts. And they do cost a little more.

But they don't break after 3 uses like the junk at Harbor Freight.

They have a great selection of batteries. I just pick up two marine batteries for the 5er from TSC.

I just picked up a Champion 3500 watt generator for my camper from my local TSC. It already has the 30 amp RV plug, and the genny actually pushes 30 amps. I thas a honda knock off motor from china, but came with a 2 year warranty. all for $279. They have RV antifreeze for 2.99 a gal (walmart is 7.99 for the exact same stuff) I have taken advantage of a couple of their plastic tank deals ( to run with chemical pumps/ pesticides and liquid fertilizer).
Our TSC is a smaller store and only stocks the big moving items for our area, but I still love to go and look around.

The first time i went to a tractor supply i spent 3 hours there just looking around... I bought my tool box there for my truck for 159. My friends made fun of me because they said it was a cheap knock off and then they cried when i showed them the "delta" sticker on the inside of it...

Our local one is a little pricey, usually shop at the Farm&Fleet a quarter mile down the road. Bigger store, better selection.
