Tool brand of choice?

["350Vortec"]

I use all Husky Brand. Cheap stuff from home depot. Just used the $500 dollar scholarship i won for tools on some new husky things. Including a 500 piece Wrench, Ratchet, and bit set. All Husky Tools have lifetime warranties also. So im set with them for now. Good tools for a young kid like myself.

I have a few husky tools too not bad no problems with them either. Good choice.

All my standard wrenches are husky, so far no problems.

I'm adding Blackhawk and Ryobi to my collection now. I picked up a Ryobi circular saw a little over a month ago and have been very pleased with it. I also just got some free 12 point metric Blackhawk sockets.

Craftsman is my prefered choice but, I will use anything that gets the job done. including Harbor Freight crap.

Mostly MasterCraft (Canadian Tire) same quality as Craftsman. I love the fact that you can bring back a wrench or ratchet with snipe marks all over it and no one asks any questions they just give you a new one and carry on. Getting warranty out of Snap-on and Mac is a little more complicated but i do have some of their stuff for the high use tools that i relied on daily when i was pulling wrenches.
We use alot of "wrench extenders" (snipes) in my industry so tool breakage is common.

Hand Tools = Craftsman
Power Tools = Chicago Electric/ Craftsman/ Dewalt

If I'm going to spend a higher price, I want a lifetime guarantee. But most of the cheap tools I purchased from Harbor Freight have been surprisingly holding up well. (Chicago Electric)

matco good buy for the money

I usually buy Craftsman. Mix that with whatever I steal from work. At work we usually use mostly Snap-On. The Marine Corps pays for the Snap-On tools. I gots no fancy tool boxes cause I got no garage.

 

[yukon2004]

Snap-on, Matco, Craftsman for quality tools... if I need something cheap that I do not plan on using very much... Stanley or Husky...

Depends on what I'm buying. A brief list of what I have/own

Sockets- Craftsman 1/4, 3/8's and 1/2 drives (Metric and SAE)
Ratchets- Snap-On 1/4, 3/8, 1/2.
Wrenches- Snap-On and Craftsman
Air Impacts- Matco 1/2, and a Snap-On 3/8's
Impact Sockets- Matco 1/2 and 3/8's (Metric)
Electric Impact- Snap-On 3/8's
Electric Screw Gun- Snap-On
Extensions and Joints- Snap-On
Body Panel Tools- Matco
Pliers and such- Chanel-locks
Screwdrivers- Craftsman. I'd like to get a Matco set
Grinders- Milwaukee and Blue-Point

I personally like Snap-On tools. Not impressed with their air or electric tools. But hand tool wise, totally worth the money. When I buy tools, I buy something that is going to last me. Kinda why I buy Snap-On/Matco/Craftsman

My Father started as a truck driver/distributor for Mac and is now a higher up for the Eastern half of the US...I've accumulated quite a good bit of Mac tools over the years, I love it when a distributor leaves for another job and leaves his truck in my dad's care, usually get hella good deals on that stuff as they destock a truck.

Had great times when I was a kid going to the Nascar and NHRA stuff with him, I think thats what really got me into modding my vehicles.
