I like that I can buy a craftsman item any day of the week. And I can
get the husky items at 3 AM on a Sunday. Both have withstood amazing
amnounts of (ab)use.

I agree, for the pro, snap-on, mac, and matco are the only
way to go. For us shadetree wrenches, craftsman is just
fine. The kobalt and whatever home depot sells are pretty
nice too.
Love the "73 Eldo Puzzle" signature!

I just thought I'd through some kindling on this thread :). Once upon a time, I was a mechanic at a car dealership. I started with Craftsman tools. Snapon tools were VERY expensive. The MAC tool guy also came to the shop. I occasionally borrowed some tools of varying brands from teamates in the shop. IMO, Snapon tools are also far superior to most other brands. I could mention some of the nit-picky differences for anyone who is happy to argue. I don't know how many times I've heard people say "Snapon? they're ridiculous. Craftsman has liftetime garauntee - same tool!" - NOT Are they worth the extra money? For the amount I tool around today? definately not. As a full time mechanic? most of the time, yes.
