[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 4045539, member: 44288"] THIS I saved and scrimped for years to penny pinch to get tool boxes for my shop. Don't get me wrong, I have tool boxes but I have too many. I want to put ALL of my sockets in one drawer. All of my wrenches in one drawer, screwdrivers, one drawer, hammers, one drawer, etc. By the time I got the money, COVID hit. Then Biden got into office and prices for everything skyrockets. Now, again, I don't have the money for the boxes. I had a garage sale and sold a bunch of stuff finally getting the money. Then the water heater blows. Then the kid can't get a job and was screwed on her old job and she quit and I am supporting two households. Now she is pregnant! To top all of that off the toolboxes I wanted were DISCONTINUED and sold at great prices while I'm not looking.! You cannot find them anywhere in the country. Wifey and I discussed it. I am much happier and easier to be around when all my stuff is organized and I can turn out projects faster. Wifey said we can make it if I get this other job and work part time so I get two Husky tool boxes and get organized. I quickly found out they aren't big enough and I need a third box, possibly a fourth, which is down the road. I'm the same way with my truck. My 2004 Chevy Silverado was an Iowa truck and had cancer that had been Bondoed and painted so it came out years after I bought it. It has 140 K miles and runs and drives great. I like it because it is a sleek, slim aerodynamic truck. Not like the boxes on boxes running down the road today. It doesn't have GPS and it doesn't have a limp mode either. I can work on it myself and fix the thing easily as compared to a newer truck with computers and chips and nanny stuff I don't want or need. If I could get someone to fix the cancer, I'd be forever grateful and never sell this truck. [/QUOTE]
