Ben you and i started off from the very beginning on the worng foot, but now i see that you and i arent so different, we really are quite similar. I have always been the kind of kid that will leave someone else alone unless they mess with me first and then after that pay back is a bitch.

I credit that to Dieselbombers.We are alot alike E2.I'm a stubborn guy but I can listen to what others say.I changed and I like this better.I don't even have to hide anything anymore.Hell were going into the same profession just I want the Ag side more.But if I can't find a job in the Ag then I'll go truck diesel so I have a gauranteed job.

You shouldnt too hard of a time gettin a job on the Ag side there are a ton of jobs out there working in Heavy Diesel. Light truck diesel has more jobs but it doesnt pay the amount that heavy diesel does. Oh well i love my job on most days..... Its the days that i have to do PDIs that suck the most..... they are so boring.

In Canada things are similar but different. I have some snap-on, mostly jet, craftsman and Canadian Tire Master Craft brand as well. I have a oiled campbell housfeld compressor that works great and a boat load of general, makita, porter cable and delta tools as well.

It is all in what you need them for and who much you think it is worth. I have never bought a tool of any kind at wally world and never will.

Yeah the Hell with the evil Empire(Walmart)!The only thing I buy there is golf clubs.Even those are just so so at best.I'm thinking S-K socket sets and Craftsman wrenches and a Craftsman or Snap On tool chest.

im talking about on a construction site not in the mech. shop. on a construction site yuor almost guaranteed people will steal your stuff because you cant always keep an eye on everyhting. and you cant keep everything locked in yuor box all day. its a sad fact but it happens everyday. theres always gonna be worthless theives in this world, maybe someday the govenrment will turn its back towards stuff like that and let people start standing their ground!!!the worst part is you very seldomly catch the guy that got you. but when they get caught its not good for the person. because most of the time supervision will turn their back and let it be taken care of!!!

I have much more respect for Ben on this site because he changed and become more respectable than he was on diesel power. Good job Ben and keep it up.
