Craftsman tools name sold.
This is not exactly Chevy truck related, not directly anyway, but I'll bet that there's not a truck on here that hasn't been worked on with Craftsman tools.
"Sears announced today that it has agreed to sell the Craftsman brand to Stanley Black & Decker after controlling the iconic name in tools for 90 years. Stanley Black & Decker, which also produces DeWalt tools, plans to expand the number of stores selling Craftsman, as only 10 percent of Craftsman products are currently sold in stores other than Sears, according to the Associated Press. Sears will continue to sell Craftsman tools."
Not a big deal I guess, but I hope the quality doesn't become dollar store equivalent. Virtually all of my tools are Craftsman, made in USA era, and I've always considered them to be a good alternative price wise to the professional brands.
