Great topic. I got so tired of switching my tools from the garage, to the camper, to the truck, i finally got this just for the truck. No more switching back & forth.

A guy i worked with for 28 yrs kept telling me how good the quality of his was. So, I picked it up on super sale for around $150. It has not let me down yet. I even put a breaker pipe on the handle of the 3/8" drive ratchet to get lug nuts off the Power Wagon. It held up no problem. I have broke a Craftsman ratchet doing that. A couple time during a repair project on something or the other, i needed a special tool that i did not have in garage. Looked in this kit & son-of-a-gun, there it was. I'm happy with it.

Seems to be a really nice kit with almost everything you'd need. I love how everything has it's own place within the tool case. Looks to be around $200 right now but if you can get a coupon you might be able to get it cheaper.

Thanks for suggesting this stuff; never heard of it before. I was in HD yesterday and saw this: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Super-Glue-1-in-x-10-ft-Black-E-Z-Fuse-Silicone-Tape-15408-6/204237144 . Looks like the same stuff but a little more inexpensive. Cheap knockoff or real deal?

There are several manufacturers that all make similar tapes. I don't have experience with the Super Glue version, but being it is a very well known brand, I would think that they make a decent product. You might see a guy at a tradeshow booth showing the stuff off as well and may give you a deal.
