OLD Craftsman stuff was excellent. I have some of my grandfather's
tools and they don't feel like S-K, Proto, Snap-On, etc. but they are
still perfectly serviceable. NEW Craftsman, the main reason to buy it
instead of the cheapest stuff you can find is the lifetime warranty.

Like my friend says, when you're lying under the car fixing something,
you don't give a rat's ass about a tool warranty, you just want a tool
that isn't broken. I like S-K, and I really like Bonney. Snap-On is
pretty spendy but there are ways to avoid paying retail.
