I wish they made a 3/8 locking flex that’s around 9” or 10”.
Me too.
Me three!!!
You only buy tools when you need them? I have to learn to do that too - at least according to the wife.
Do you tell the wife??? I don’t!

It's coming. I think there's like 26-29 of the Gen 2 ratchets but, they've only released 9 so far. Visit you tube, search for Harbor Freight SEMA 2024 and you find footage of the whole Gen 2 line up.

I don't tell her - she just "notices." There's been times when I didn't think she would notice when I got a new tool or a duplicate type of a different brand, and got the "don't you have one of those already" or "what does that tool do that the others don't?"

I have my distraction toolbox at home in the garage. My real one is down at the farm!

I sometimes feel I would like to be married again. When I read something like this, am glad I'm not.
My wife walks through my garage and says “ I don’t remember that tool box”. I say oh yes I’ve had that for years. She gives me the evil eye and leaves. It’s a good thing she doesn’t come into my garage very often, she would probably divorce me if she did.
Buddy of mine would only buy white porsches... wife didn't notice the constant rotation. Then he got a car garage, offsite....
One of the things on the mile long list of why my ex hated me, was buying tools.
My mother and sister both asked me a few weeks ago why I need so many tools and how I would ever use them all.
Anyway, decided to stop by a HF store on the way from work today that I would not normally go out of my way to visit but they showed G2 inventory online.
Not a surprise, actual in-store inventory was basically nothing. They must of had 50 of the flex 1/4" ratchets, but essentially nothing else. Guess it will have to wait.
The grip felt good though and they feel solid (heavy, well built). But won't know more until I buy and use them.

They are pretty nice. At least the 3/8 locking flex head.

I had the long 1/4” in my hand ready to buy but I honestly couldn’t think of a single instance where I’d use it. The long 3/8” might be a future purchase though.
It would be better if the extra long 3/8” was a flex head.
I'm sorry, there is no way my wife would ever tell me I can't have another tool. In fact, she uses Snap-on.com to get me more.
