    I guess you could put it on a Roof rack, but I have never needed to store stuff in the truck while having to sleep in it.
    Outside in the camp site.... sleep in truck

    Depends on where I'm camping. Bears make a difference.

    Yep, I'm certain that is exactly how it works. Bears certainly don't reach very high.

    Depends on what it is and where I am. I either toss stuff in the cab, the cargo box (if I happen to have it on the rack), under the truck or just leave it out. I've tossed stuff in the kayak(s) before as well.

    We usually store our gear in the front cab. My toolbox and the cooler usually stay on the ground, unless of course wildlife is a concern. In this case, the "wildlife" of concern were the western Washingtonians escaping to the mountains to party on a Friday night.
