i started out using craftsman when i started wrenching. there good basic tools and i love them for my tools that are kept at home. now that i have started working in the car industry i have a mix of snap-on, matco and mactools. campairing the craftsman and the other bigger name brands together there is a real differenece. EX. how the teeth are designed on wrench's. it's small but it makes the tools last longer, and work alot harder without damaging rusty olds fasteners.

although i work with guys that have used craftsman for the past 20 years.

You returned it and still haven't gotten a new one?
No it's been just over a years and they still tell me that a 8mm 3/8" drive short 6 point socket is still on backorder and has been the whole time! It's not one I use often but I'd still like it back.

Maybe you guys prefer fresh air ventilation at night, is that why you call a sunroof a moonroof?.

I think most people refer to them as sun roofs... I used to call them moon roofs but I never hear anyone say that anymore. I do like to drive around on a chilly night with the windows down, and the heat on at the same time... It feels nice. :lol:

I was just kidding about the whole spanners vs. wrenches thing... I just find some British phrases amusing, spanner being on of them, I also like "litter basket" or "rubbish bin". And I'm not sure if it's standard but I know some people call soda or pop "fizzy drink"... Although I guess that's not as weird as people in certain parts of the Southern USA that call any flavor or brand of soda "a coke" which I figure is because Atlanta is the home of Coca-Cola. :lol:
