Isn't it amazing how deceptively small those crew cabs look from the outside, and all that storage space on the inside!

The more parts you need to carry the better organized you need to be!
I am definitely a neat freak.
Years ago ran a repair shop for a mine. Our warehouse was maybe 200' from our shop. The warehouse was 40' wide by 125' long and had 3 employees. We had $1M in electrical parts and another $1M in electric locomotive parts. I had 12 electricians in the shop who spent an average of an hour a day each in that whse. looking for parts. It was a tall building, had them build a mezzanine floor and moved all our parts upstairs, we found items we didn't even know we had, organized, and listed into computer - when done only 1 hour per day - total - spent in warehouse getting parts/supplies. The warehouse also cut back to 2 employees! We ended up doubling the size of the warehouse, had much better control over the inventory - and paid for it in 2 years with the savings in time spent looking.......
