  1. I didn't get that far into it. I played a little, set a few presets and decided to give up and just enjoy the sound.
  2. What gloves do you guys use? I've been using Black Mamba and am fairly impressed. Just don't get them snagged. They tear easier than I would like.
  3. What else did you buy on that transaction? New combo set?
  4. I don't see any Tough System Organizers (DWST08202) either!
  5. Hopefully your store has it pulled down from top stock by then. I had to spend an hour in the store trying to find the pallet and then for them to get an OP to get it down. Have me time to look for deals. [emoji12]
  6. I started my business with that kit. I think I used it for nearly a year until I bought the Bosch drill and impacts.
  7. ALWAYS. If I am working on something like my engine, I try to thread as much by hand as possible, then use just the socket or socket and extension. Then it's just a quick zip with a power or air tool. Then the torque wrench to ensure proper torque settings.
  8. My first power tool was an old craftsman bandsaw similar to this one. I got it as a gift in the mid 90's. I had it all the way up until a couple months ago. 2001-2003, I received this kit as a gift and it worked all the way up to 2012 before I upgraded and sold it.

  10. I second that! Being as I just picked one up today, this is, hands down, the best job site radio available. Period.
  11. It's MUCH better than Milwaukee!
  12. It is very nice. Light up buttons. The center knob is also an "Enter/select" push button.
  13. Some more points: Metal pins on the yellow clips that hold the tough system together. [emoji106]
  14. Very good for the radio. When I hook my phone up via Bluetooth, which has a bass booster option, I'm sure it will be even better. It's really just an incredible radio. I can't even explain it. At our company summer party, someone won the big Milwaukee radio and that doesn't even touch this.
  15. I am amazed. I just turned it on on the radio function at the shop and am VERY impressed. It has a decent equalizer to increase the bass, treble and mid range tones. The top lid is a little goofy. When you retract the clips (two per side) it doesn't pop the lid up and release it. It may just be the fact it's new and sticks. In order to release the yellow lid, you have to release one side, pull up the lid, then release the other side. Initial take on the side mounts: there doesn't appear to be a positive detent or locking mechanism. The weight of the radio and the light rubberized overmold will most likely hold it in place under most driving conditions. Again, the sound is INCREDIBLE on the radio setting. All my 20v batteries I had with me for the day are dead, so I am charging one up to give it a good test. On full volume, the sound isn't distorted at all. Very very clear. I AM IMPRESSED.
  16. Just picked mine up for $160. I had a $20.00 coupon that wouldn't scan properly so she manually discounted it 20%.
  17. You guys mean, I will have mine before you?! [emoji15] I think hell has frozen over, pigs have flown and the fat lady is singing. [emoji23]
  18. I've got a gift card burning a hole in my pocket so I just placed my order for pickup. Going after lunch.
  19. Anyone hit up an HD this AM to see if the new gear was put out?
  20. Barrette 50. Nuff said. [emoji16]
  21. Was forced to buy an Airlift tool to evacuate all the air out of my trucks coolant system after removing the EGR and flushing the system. Couldn't find one to rent, borrow or a reasonable cost for a mechanic to do it. The tool itself is pretty handy. Hooks to a compressive and uses a Venturi to create a vacuum on the system. After getting 25+ psi of vacuum, you open a ball valve and it draws coolant from your bottle or bucket into the system. I'll upload some pics later. It is a universal tool and should work on most passenger vehicles.
