Not to mention that I have about a dozen jacks of different sizes & designs. Low profile, SUV/Truck with extended neck, bottle jacks, Hi-Lift, et cetera. That little one with the case is one of my favorites since it's portable, and able to lift a lot of small cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those guys might as well be doing construction work in designer jeans, and wearing Rolex watches. My dad also told me that you could wear a Rolex for the cost difference between a work truck & a show off truck. Most normal contractors drive Rangers and Hiluxes, some Nissans and Isuzus, but these are minority. I never have and never will understand the bling watch fetish. I get it if your business involves hanging out with wrinkly old white dudes on a golf course but other than that - a G-Shock or even the F-91W should do just fine on a normal work day.

tcconvert Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 My shade tree mechanic days are over. The only tools I carry now are a AAA card and a cell phone. BSUPC and WillMartin 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
