I think I am going to order out a Lariat 5.0 4x4 Off-road. I drove the Ecoboost, and while it drove nice and seemed powerful, I just have a negative gut feeling about it. Maybe after its been out for 5 years I would consider it, but I hope to get atleast 8-10 years out of the 5.0.

Go with a Rolair and You'll never go back to any of the others www.rolair.net

I'm in the market to buy a new truck. My 96’ Powerstroke needs a rebuild and I don't want to stick that kind of money into an old truck. Furthermore, I don't want the maintenance costs that that go with a diesel anymore, so I am going to buy and F-150 soon. I want to know what engine you guys...

If it is a Harbor Freight box, yes. . . . . . . as many as possible!

Red filing cabinets on wheels is exactly what I was thinking when I started planning this. I was looking at a Lista the other day and could not believe how thin the metal was. The thing wobbled like a bobble head doll with a little bit of weight in it when I pushed on it. I'm not going to tell...

To quickly summarize I will handle the design and supply of these boxes. I will contract the manufacturing of them to a local metal fabricator that houses automated laser systems, brake presses, robotic welders, etc. You are correct in stating that this will require a large investment, but by...

It is going to take some time before I would get this off the ground. I generated this post because I wanted some more ideas as I write my business plan and design boxes. I contacted a local metal fabricator to get some figures for production costs. I'm pretty busy at work these days so I don't...

I completely agree. If I go through with this I am going to do it right. This would not be some half-a$$ed attempt to build and sell these boxes out of my garage. I would offer a complete line with various sizes and multiple drawer configurations. The add-ons like you have mentioned are a must...

I would not expect you to. I would start out selling locally. . . . word of mouth is the best form of marketing.

Estwing. . .One piece construction and a comfortable grip. It will last forever and one does not have to worry about replacing wooden handles.

I may be the only one who doesn't like the 9100 series thou. -too bulky compared to the 9000 series, can't stick my head where the other used to go -doesn't ventilate as well as the old design, fogging was never an issue with the old one -overly complicated and annoying headear, the old...

Wright still sells their tools in metal cases. Even their Cougar line comes in a metal case. I've got a brand new SK 3/8 drive socket set in a plastic case . . . . . . very nice. That ratchet is nicer than some of my Snap-Ons:)

If the block wall is grouted properly there is not much difference in strength between the two options. My father is a mason so for me it is going to be block no question. You should know that things made from concrete or cement tend to have fantastic compressive strength. However, the same...

Its sad that we have to take measures like these to find an American made tool. I've already taken a display model Milwaukee drill that all the little kids played with and dropped onto the floor and replaced the one in the box with it because the new one in the box was made in China.
