    A mechanic should have a good solid set of impacts.

    BTW.. once again I used the Gearwrench 82248 and it surpassed anythign that my buddy the mechanic had on hand. Pretty sure he's going to buy one.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Snap-On Solous. Its a pretty awesome piece of equipment. I doubt you will use it much and it costs a ton of money. I got the chance to play around with one for a while and it was awesome.

    I have mostly craftsman tools. Never had a problem with them. My dad has pretty much all snap on tools. His snap on guy was pretty awesome. He ended up buying another route and has someone else starting the route my dad is on soon. If you get a good truck driver, you will start to love their tools because the driver will do nearly anything for you.

    Might of missed it but some smaller things, punches, thread depth gauge, thread restorers, pressure gauges, soldering tools, angle torquer, torque tester. Might not be proper names but **** I've just started using some of these things the last 6 months.
