i've been buying alot of S&K tools lately. i bought a set of deep impact standard and metric sockets and a rad hose clamp tool last month. i need a torque wrench soon. i get a REALLY good price from my buddies at the paint store on this stuff. how close is S&K to the tool truck stuff? these sockets are almost the same price as the snap on's i think, and the rad hose clamp tool was 85 compared to 140 for MAC, but it has better features. i dont want to hear any "huck huck, i buy harbor freight" stuff, just informed opinions from people who have used both. thanks, sean
