I started out with a 1/2" wrench, a 9/16" wrench, and a flat screw driver. I'll bet I could almost disassemble most of my truck with just that!

Now I have a lot more, I used to work in a shop doing motor rewind/welder/generator repair and all the guys there bought SnapOn from the truck. I bought a lot of SnapOn tools from them for pennies on the dollar when things got tight.

They used to laugh because I had $2,000.00 worth of tools I bought for $500.00 in a cheap tool box... I just smiled... I'll bet they have loans on new Z-71's even now... Some people never learn.
