Tools I use

Everything here is something I have used on a real job, pulled from the repairs on this site. I am not going to pretend a cheap tool is a good tool, and I am not going to tell you to buy a thousand dollar scanner to change a cabin filter. The ones marked MY PICK are what I reach for first.
