    My very modest little setup, at least most everything is in one spot now, need to clean the garage out and get a real chest at some point. I've added a new set pf plier and some new wrenches since these pics were taken.

    My father's best friend is a retired Snap On salesman, all I can think about is how much that setup cost.

    Exactly, the tools are awesome but those salesman are ruthless, I used to go on a golf trip every year with a bunch of them, some guys would show up to a shop with a tool box, unload it and refuse to leave until the guy decided to buy it.

    Yup guys finance the stuff, as a salesman for Snap On most of your work is just driving around collecting monthly payments. I haven't been over to the guys house in a while but he used to have a sick setup in his garage and his truck was even more ridiculous, was a rolling showroom, he sold off most of the stuff so I am not sure what he has left.

    Nope, they are franchises, they are in business for themselves. Some guys have employees and may own multiple routes, but most I knew just worked for themselves, there was a corporate aspect to it but most were autonomous.

    I've actually seen a video on YouTube of a snap on guy getting off his truck and handing everyone one of their new ratchets, and being a pain in the ass about taking them back.

    What I thought! Way too expensive!

    Salesmen like that piss me off and I would refuse to buy anything from them ever! As for the salesmen that didn't want to take their ratchet back. Set it down and walk away!
