        from where? sears? the only thing that's kept me from buying craftsman was thinking i'd have to spend 200 for tools. guess i was wrong.

            Maybe when bone stock. I'll report back when mine is slammed.

              Funny, he said it was sold! He's almost in the realistic price range.

              He's not mentioning that the car has had a color change. Kind of an important detail.

                  its this weird budget tool brand. basically its a one off of craftsman. Once i bought a set of evolv hex sockets because they were cheap and i needed them... Twisted three like licorice and broke one :( for some reason no warranty either so i sacked up and paid 80 bucks for snap on

                      ^ Go with regular Craftsman. Sears often has sales on one set or another.

                        i donno i mean maybe there open ends are decent amongst other things but then again ive only bought one evolv tool.

                        when it comes to tool sets it seems like you have to spend around 100 bucks to get something legit.

                        Costco used to have a really nice set-up. Think they still do. check it out nick

                          I guess what I was getting at is that some tools are better than the meal for tool plan.

                            are you offering to give me the coupon or are you trying to make me feel bad? ;)
