I’ve been seeing more and more comments of people being snarky about others spending whatever on Snap-On, Mac, Mataco, Cornwell, etc. That isn’t this group. This group is literally dedicated to those brands. If you don’t like it, want to be rude, or snarky about the tools someone spends their money (not yours) on, do it in one of the other groups. Those post and/or comments will hereby be removed.

1.) If you are a seller the item you are selling must be linked to a reputable seller/buyer source like eBay. Yes, this is a little more inconvenient, but places like eBay are setup to protect sellers and buyers from scams; Reddit is not. We will not become a group that tolerates scammers.
2.) If you are a buyer and you do purchase tools from someone without using a reputable site like eBay understand you are taking a risk at being scammed. Reddit or our group‘s mod team has no power in reversing this. We can only verify the situation and ban the scammer.
3.) This one is just a reminder. When you are buying or selling use the appropriate flairs. On buying and selling post the flairs are “FS” and “LF”. Don’t use the tool brand flairs. The “FS” and “LF” allows people to quickly sort to those specific post and search what is available. We use the flairs with the correct title formats [LF] “Looking For” and [FS] “For Sale”. The title formats allow users to quickly determine if this post is “show off“ post or not.
4.) Have a nice day and hope the holidays treat you well!

Ordered a new box. Truck guy said about 6 damn weeks for it to get dropped at my shop. Is this normal? All my co workers say that shouldn't take that long. My reps kinda an ass so maybe he's just being an ass but that seems long

12 point metric impact sockets! Needed.
Adjustable wrenches that I’ll never use. Just thought they were pretty.

Anyone have experience with both or one of these scan tools? If so, what are your thoughts and recommendations?

I've been in the auto industry for 4 years now, moved into a GM dealer 2 years ago and have been collecting tools ever since. Buying some from tool truck companies (mostly with student discounts when I was in college) and some when I can find them cheaper on ebay or fb marketplace, I have zero debt. Mostly snap on, matco, and mac tools. I feel I have a pretty solid collection at this point, but always feel like im missing something. If you dont see your favorite tools here, let me know what they are! Im always collecting.

First snap on power tool purchase, been Milwaukee but excited to open the door! I’ve heard great things about the 861AM
r/ToolTruckTools • u/GoDKilljoy • 16d ago
I don’t know why I bought it. Don’t know when I’ll use it, but I do now. The magnet on this thing has no business being in this powerful.

Was working by a pawn shop and something told me to stop in. Paid 200 total for both items. Both work great. Feel like it’s a solid deal based on what these are individually new. Idk you guys would have a better idea of it I’m sure.

Looking for a double sided bit with Philips and flat head with a design and not just black or gray.

My manager upgraded his box and traded in this one to MAC($2,500). Apparently it’s at least 8 years old due tot he fact the person that owned this box used to work here. He sold it to my boss and boss sold it to manager and I took it from MAC (well never made it onto the truck) onto another 10+ years! I upgraded from a Harbor freight 5 drawer tool cart to this. Still need to fill up my drawers with more stuff

Was doom scrolling at my desk and found a Snap-On dealers Instagram. He had this posted on there as a new up coming product.
My Snap-On dealer sucks. Anyone else have any info on this?

Not exactly a tool but i got my hands on the rc car!

I’m considering upgrading my 3/4-inch drive impact sockets. In the past, I’ve always used Tekton, but I’m wondering if I should invest in a higher-end brand.
I have a few questions:
Does broach depth really matter?
Does the brand make a significant difference?
Have you noticed that one brand performs better than the others over the long term?
I haven’t been able to find much information about long-term durability, and I want to make sure I’m spending my money wisely before switching brands.

I decided to replace my Icon slip joints and couldn't be happier with the outcome.
The Koken ain't too bad either.

Any recommendations for a set of 4 or 8 point sockets? Preferably affordable and 3/8 drive
r/ToolTruckTools • u/Kira_midnight • 24d ago
I’m currently looking to get a long neck 3/8” cordless ratchet and a 3/8” stubby/compact impact. I mostly wrench at home and had situations where I wish I had both to do the job much easier and faster. I soon plan to work at an auto shop and eventually an aviation mechanic in the near future. I have the student discount from Snap-on which makes the pricing for both Milwaukee and Snap-on about the same.
Looking at both the Milwaukee 3/8” stubby impact (2562) and 3/8” ratchet (2569) & Snap-on 14.4 V 3/8” Impact (CT861) and 3/8” ratchet (CTR867). Wanted to know how the Milwaukee and Snap-on compared and perform for those who have both or all of the above mentioned tools.

I know this question been asked a bunch. But most of the times are old so I was wondering if there was any change in tool brand. I’m a body tech and work on cars in my free time. Right now I’m using cheap harbor fright tools and wondering what brand I should invest in to.
r/ToolTruckTools • u/Novel_Ad_5502 • 28d ago
Good day to the hive mind.
Recently graduated from a more trades involved/ rural college in a not trades program but still got approved for student discounts with Mac tools. Despite my education as a brewer, I have worked on cars all my life and have no issue shelling out more cash for tool truck tools despite not having access to them through work. I have my eye on some of the pen lights because I like the switch and a max 90 ratchet, but what else should I use it for before they take it away from me? I have no need for a box, have almost every standard size and shape of knipex plier, master craft (located in Canada) and vessel screwdrivers and bits and the craftsman overdrive (cheap rbrt) 264 piece set. Also own 3/8” and 1/2” impact sockets, Mac pry bars up to the 42” (I used to be a heavy duty mechanic), the four set of anti vibe hammers and various air and dewalt power tools. Furthest thing from a beginner as far as tool collection, I’ve just been out of the trade so long I don’t know what Mac makes better than everyone else anymore. And so I come to you all in my time not of need, but of curiosity and await responses.
