Which tools would be the best?
|
|
|
I am taking a 2 year course in Automotive technology. I am starting off with Automotive Breaks and Manual transmissions. I need to furnish my own tools, and the teacher is obviously getting a kickback because he brought in a spokesman for snap-on tools who pretty much tried to bullSh!t us into going 5k dollars into debt for a basic starter tool set. I work at Walmart TLE, and Walmart sells stanley tools. I am also considering husky, Craftsman, harbor freight and kobalt.
I am hoping stanley will be good enough to last me through the 2 year course, mainly because I get 10% off. But for my second choice I'm torn between HF and Craftsman.
Which brand would YOU recommend?

Really, and automotive forum and nobody knows Sh!t about tools?
How about I just buy find a rock and stick and call it good enough?

Just some heads up. Not everyone is on here 100% of the time to answer questions. We do have families and our own lives to deal with.
Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

And this answers the question why WalMart has a reputation for having idiots work there. They really do.

Perhaps we should send him the links to all the posters whose cars went to crap after a trip to Walmart.
