    I had a one time use 25% off super coupon they let me use when I bought my Daytona last month. I don't get those very often so I was fortunate in that respect. I also tacked on another I think 10% off by signing up for the HF credit card. I thought it was a pretty good deal to get 35% off.

    This chaps my hide. I've spent a good amount of money there and was a Fast Track member but never got those coupons. I called them, spoke to the store manager, checked that the correct email on file, etc. Still nothing. Bastages.

    4 run, 2 don't
    You can just get one made locally

    In that particular case, it looks like the HF or Klutch version as it can be used as a table top version.

    I think I may have received the 25% off coupon because a new store location just opened up near my home. I think they sent it because they wanted to encourage business at the new location.

    Seems to be the case of marketing these days. Apps and email and click. If you’re not spending enough then we’ll send more offers.

    Picked this and some cheap gloves to leave in the truck for less than $16 otd.
    Charged it up and it seems decent enough for the money. Just plan on using it for small stuff I normally use a screwdriver for. It’s only 12v. We’ll see how it holds up. Manual states not to let it over charge so that’s kind of annoying. LED indicator does go from red to green though.

    Agreed. I like the way a wood top looks and how it functions. You can always add a piece of wood to the top. That is what I did for a utility cart that I use to store stuff for making plate brackets. I bolted a more finished piece of plywood that was very smooth to the top then screwed in a hand tapper to the wood to hold it in place. When the wood gets chewed up or too oily or dirty I can either sand it or replace it easily.

    In some cases yes, and in some others no. Depends on how you plan on using the top. So you just get two. One with wood, one without!

    Harbor Freight emailed me a coupon for 25% off any single item no exclusions, good until October 26th. Around $240 out the door with tax.

    I wish they had this color awhile back when I bought the yellow one.

    Picked up this floor jack today. I got tired of messing with subpar bottle jacks or scissor jacks when I needed to lift my truck or my wife's Explorer. I've used my father-in-law's 1.5 Ton Pittsburgh racing jack and it worked fine, so I figured I would go with something similar. This had a much wider wheelbase than the Pittsburgh which is the reason I chose it. Now I just need to figure out a way to secure it to the side wall of the bed. 58206_W5.jpg
