I’ve got no quarrel with Snap on but for a shade tree mechanic Expert or Blue point is plenty good. I have some Wright wrench’s I love and some SK’s too. Honestly? Those Kobalt tools from Lowe’s aren’t bad.

 

Wow a fancy wabco on a N14 in KW? That looks expensive. Only ever seen them on Volvo with N14

 

Kobalt makes great tools. I really don’t know why they spent the money to buy craftsman

 

If I had to make a list. I have Snap on, mac, sk, matco, cornwell. Mix of all in a matco box and a blue point roll around. I have some SK that was my grand fathers. Never once had a tool guy look for me for money. But almost every guy I ever worked with had trouble paying for things they bought. First paid job in a shop I had, the old timers made it real clear that if you bought tools from tool guy you paid him, and dont let it affect them. If not they said lunch would get real lonely.

 

I don’t either

 

I was a cornhole, mac, and lots of craftsman kobalt and husky. I have a few snap on but thought they were overpriced. Big cornwell box

 

Tool truck is like crack for mechanics. I always owed them money

 

Then once I was managing a shop I was hard on the guys that didn"t pay the tool guy. Oh you don't want overtime? Should we ask the snapon guy? You don't buy stuff that you have no plans paying for it. As much as I dislike most tool guys, I know its a hard job for them collecting from mechanics.
