Top brands?
Go to a garage sale being held by a really old couple selling off their crap so they can move to Florida to die. Look for that 60 year old shovel that the handle has been placed three times and the spade twice but it's the same great shovel. Strap that to your truck to look less like the douché that was in the shiny lifted FJ Cruiser with everything shiny and unused next to me at the gas station.

I really like the feel of my Estwing axe.. and I have a half-sized Craftsman digging shovel with a D-handle that's the perfect size/angle to dig sand out from under a vehicle!

Saw a deal on ebay or amazon, i forget its been so long. but it is a metal extendable rod with different attachments such as a shovel, axe, and two others. not too expensive either.

Rick ya wise ass. I meant one's that snap onto the bumper and or roof rack, designed for off road vehicles.
Check out the max ax. There are several on eBay that came off hummers. Less than half price of a new one. They are really more for keeping in the vehicle. Also search for a pioneer kit if you want to mount it on the exterior.
LOL
actually if you have done any shoveling a long handled shovel is the only way to go, at least for this 6'6" guy.
I'm using a good sturdy wood handle axe. I'm getting an interior Land Rover axe mount and mounting it all on the inside of my back hatch. The shovel I'm pretty sure I'm just going to strap down to the bottom of the roof rack.

There's several places to buy it, but it takes some time to find it. These guys say they sell it.

If it doesn't say Overland Axe or Overland Shovel, it won't work in a vehicle. Sorry, that is just the way it is
Here's another link directly to them.

Not to sound stupid, but your serious? Only specific shovels and axes will fit in these mounts? Thx!
