Why truck brands

[Finky198]

Yeah with the winter we had it came in handy tackling the 6" thick ice field I now know as my driveway

Bought it used years ago but has bailed me out more then enough times to make it worth it

well I'll bite on this thread. had craftsman ratchets, they hands down are absolutely terrible. so I got some gearwrench 120xp ratchets, my 3/8 one broke and what do ya know I have to pay to mail it in and get warrantied. I'm out that ratchet, in the meantime I bought a f80, I'll have it till the day I die and can get it fixed every week if I wanted to without having to email support and pay $5-$6 to USPS it to them to be fixed. plus last craftsman impact I broke, stores no longer carry singles they had to mail it to me, took over 2 months to get my broken socket replaced. too much time.

You'll have guys on here tell you the swivel sockets are all the same.

"GearWrench swivel sockets are the same as Snap-on."

"They look similar; they must be the same."

I've never seen that said once since I've been here.

The GW impact sockets (including swivels) are the same as the Matco ADV (Taiwan) impacts though.

Are you guys still trying to convince each other that the tools and decisions you made are the Best for everyone?

These must be your favorite threads too. I like to stir the pot and see what floats to the top,,, its a look,,,, not real deep but still a look in to the mind of the customer. The rationale is interesting. It will be a sad day when all learn Santa isn't real.

3) there a real person I get to know and deal with. His livelihood is dependent on how much I like him. He wants to make me happy. That means certain things and benefits will happen in my favor the more I work with him.

This is why I buy most tools off the truck.

The koolaid is real enough though.
