[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 1611662, member: 8481"] I understand. I am not arguing with you. If you read my post, I believe I said a good quality wrench set will run you $300-$400. Your Snap-on link says $330. I agree. And you probably need 3 or 4 sets of varying shapes. I know you can spend well over $6000 to stock your tool chest. You said you have been a mechanic for over 5 years. So you probably have more than $6000 in tools. But you did not answer my question. What did you have to spend another $6000 on in the past 2 years in order to do your job? If you said all your tools were beat up, banged up, bent, broken, just plum worn out, then I can see spending $6000. And I know they get beat up, banged up working on trucks. But if you're only getting 5 years out of a set of Snap-on box wrenches, sockets, etc, then there is something wrong. Maybe you need to quit throwing them at drivers when they tear up their trucks that you have to fix. I have a $5000 tool chest and probably somewhere between $7000-$10,000 in tools. They don't get used like they used to when I was working at my dad's Texaco. So I can see you having at least what I have, even before starting at UPS. What did you have to buy in the past 2 years???? ps... I buy my own maps [/QUOTE]
