Torque wrench? What's everyone using/recommend? I need one.

A little bit of everything
Mostly Craftsman tools in the garage and mostly harbor freight stuff in the trail bag. Not picky.... just buy whatever we need when we need it. Depending on what it is and how often we'll actually use it - usually decides the price range we work with.
