I know you said you wanted it in the glove box, but I mounted my maglight between the seat and door using the maglight mounts. Nice, out of the way, but easilly accessable.

I'm a Surefire and Streamlight full line distributor.
Both are better than Mag. Mag fell off the quality wagon when they started selling to places like Walmart.
Surefire asks to much money for the same things you can get from other places.
Streamlight seems to be the best balance between great quality and affordable price.
I use my Strion LED, great size and very powerful.

Also, typically the extra money you spend on a rechargeable light is made up fairly quickly by not having to buy batteries all the time.
Of course, that depends on how often you use it.
And most rechargeable lights do better staying on a charger if not in use. So you'd want a DC charger if keeping it in the truck.
Oh! Also, if you live in a colder climate you may want to look into a polymer body flashlight. The metal will act like a heat sink, and will suck to hold onto when its cold.
Or, if your like me, sometimes you gotta bite the flashlight to hold it while working with both hands. Polymer is easier on the teeth than metal.
