    First big air compressor

    I was always told to buy more compressor than you "think" you need. Air tools are hungry. If you ever plan on doing any body work even just DA sanding you'll be happier with more compressor.

    Liftgate Service Fee

    It all depends on the trucking companys policy on liftgate and residential deliveries. Residential just means getting it to your house, Liftgate means getting it to the ground, nothing more nothing less. It is all driver descretion. Not saying a driver won't go above and beyond to help someone...

    My trunk tool bag saved me

    I carry a complinent of tools in my truck as well. Tool bag with wrenches, screwdrivers, torx drivers, socket set and obd2 scanner. The best thing that saved some colorful language was a serpentine belt tool. You never know what may happen.
