just wanting to hear what your favorite tool stores are... now i will go ahead and let yall know this, Harbor Freight is my Favorite, i used to hate them, but the past good while i've been proven wrong, they junk is really actually good. almost every mod i've done to my truck, or repair, or repair to another car that we owned, and a friends car, has been with Harbor Freight tools.. and the other thing is..... I work there!!! great job... great benefits.. and the employee discount is another great thing!!!
I mostly hit Lowes, Home Depot or Sears. When I was turning wrenches I bought some stuff from Matco and Mac. Our Snap On salesman was a freaking slacker so I never had the chance to buy anything from him. I ordered some stuff one time and he never showed back up so I could actually pay him for it...
and the sad thing is, in the past 6 months, lots of HF tools, they are from the same molds and materials as some of those "name brands"... i was shocked! and too with our return policy on hand tools, its no questions asked...
Lowes and sears. All my wrenches are chraftsman. I'm gonna get some snap on ratchets because I've been having chitty luck with craftsmen lately. I think kobalts a pretty good brand to.
