amirite?

 

You got it. I have to stay off that dam truck. My bill gets higher and higher

 

It's a nice knife, but I like the Kershaw Leek a little more.... problem is I keep losing them... I've had about 4 and the most recent one is still lost

 

So.. how does this snapon truck thing work? Is it a delivery truck when you order stuff? Or is it like a "food truck" in that it roams around and then stops at places and people buy up a crapload from it when it does.
I don't like the design of the leek

 

LMAO I meant the shirt.

Thanks for the link.

 

They go to commercial/industrial shops (typically places with mechanics that have purchased before)... yes, it's like food truck/ice cream truck...

they go to a couple of the shops where I work... personally I think Snap-on is over-rated and over-priced... it's decent quality, but there is better (Snap-on is to tools what Bose is to audio).

 

1 - just ordered all my fittings to get my NRG power steering tank so i can get it working thanks RRYDE for the help !!!






2 - power steering tank will be getting polished and ill have it back next week sometime and all the fittings should be here around the same time..

3 - polished WEAPON R coolant tank should be here Monday or Tuesday ...

4 - im ordering my rev-up cam covers from SxExCx monday and should be here next weekend ...

5 - Polished circuit sport catch can should be here next weekend as well

think thats about if for next week ....

week after i have a ton of other things coming in but thats a secret

 

Over priced yes but not over rated if you use certain tools everyday. There ratchets and wrenches are best imo. Not Bose caliber by any means. Just for record I do not own a lot of snap on but the ones I do have are snap on for a reason.

Also they have a great warranty and rebuild certain tools on the spot. Unlike SK which for a while would not warranty anything.

 

Most of my hand tools are Craftsman (and an Armstrong trq wrench, and a (Proto trq wrench, both very good) - I'm far from "expert"... but the mechanics I deal with at work (who are definitely experts) wrench on commercial vehicles and cranes - about 95% of them say the same thing (Snap-on is over rated)... But they are common and easy to come by... there's nothing wrong with getting them (if you don't mind paying over-priced, which makes them over-rated).

People tend to think they are better than they are (which is why I used the Bose analogy - in addition to the over-priced)...

like I said, they arent "bad" - but there is better.

 

mmmm nice new toy i want one.

 

Like anything else you get what you pay for and all tool company's ( Matco, Mac , Snap on, Cornwell) are all way more expensive than what is bought at a local department store.

Same reason why Volks are stupid money because they make a quality product and people buy them.

 

The few snap on tools I have are fantastic and they have a LEGIT lifetime warranty. Not some bull **** where you damage it and it takes 6 weeks to get a new one. They swap it on the spot no questions asked. Paying the premium for Snap on and Mac is like buying insurance, pay a little more and it's the last tool of that kind you'll buy.

 

the ones I was referring to definitely aren't available at local hardware stores... in fact, that's one reason Snap-on are popular, they are relatively convenient to get...

BTW, Volks are expensive primarily because they are imported from Japan (but yes, they are quality too, albeit over-priced) - import fees jack prices stupid high.

 

Volks are still expensive for what they are even in Japan.

 

Plus Volks wont fix my bent lips for free! haha
