Yeah, it does suck to get old. And, it really sucks when you get too old to do things that you love to do. But, that's life.

I got too old to do deep decompression wreck diving decades ago, but I still have all of my dive equipment. It's still too hard to let go of it, even though I know that I'll never use them again. @OR VietVet , good for you to face this evolution. It may give me the incentive to do what I need to do.

In this case, there are way too many tools that I have that will never be used again. Why not let a youngster get their start in the business and keep them off the tool trucks, at least for a little while. I get some money and will still get a small roll around cart with some basic tools, like ICON, and be able to do easy on the body things for my own trucks and others.

When I recently sold my girl's 1990 K2500 ext cab she cried because she had the truck for close to 14 years. It sold well at $10k. I will likely have a tear too when my tools go because of all the work they have done for me. It is what it is.

If you looked at the CL ad, here in Eugene, Or., I have updated the 24 pics there and you can see them there.

Please remember that it is not just the tools in the pics. It is also 4 of the 6 ton Daytona jack stands, 2 of the 3 ton Hein Werner jack stands, 2 of the 3 ton floor jacks, 1 garage/shop battery charger that is virtually new, and a set of ramps.
