Nice. I wonder if they'll do 1/2" next
Looks like PK3763L, entered into Google translate is detected as an Arabic word which, into English , translates as I'm sorry. And I am not even under anesthesia yet.

I just found Tool Truck Pirates 2. Apparently the first one was shut down. I guess everything was deleted.
That page is a joke. If you even mention anything positive about the tool trucks, they ban you.

What did you actually say to get banned? Plenty of people talk about the tool trucks on that page and don't get banned.

I might recommend that you NOT repeat verbatim what you said for obvious reasons!

They definitely have SDS over there, Snap-on derangement syndrome. Idiotic things like Snap-on brings in their tool boxes from China for final assembly , all snap on tools are made from imported steel not made here Etc. I get it they don't like Snap-on that's fine ,but lying about it doesn't help anybody learn anything. Of course they heard it on the internet so it must be true. I believe it was Abraham Lincoln who said don't believe everything you hear on the internet. While there is some good information about who is the OEM on a lot of tools a lot of it is just Snap on and tool truck hate. A lot of it with simple research they could find out is not true like the US military buying Snap-on Tools there's a requirement for as much stuff as possible to be USmade.
It was a spat with the page owner (the dutch guy or w/e). Basically I ended up saying it's situation dependent on if the truck is worth it to you and that some times it's just personal preference. A lot of times you deal with "lifetime" warranty only being by their definition, I pointed out how I think Knipex pliers are a better buy off the tool truck because it's an easier warranty that can't be denied if you have an issue.

They love jer king each other off about how wonderful their ICON G2 Ratchets are too! I'm sorry but I don't think 2 ICON ratchets will even last half as long as a Dual 80. The math just doesn't math. If you want to throw some ICON in your break down box or home kit; go for it. But as a Snappy replacement LMFAO.
Its also not that cheap, g2 ratchets at retail are basically used/ebay snap-on prices from a couple years ago...
or maybe I'm just not thinking straight.
