I've been wanting one of these for years. In keeping with my reputation as a tightwad, I waited to find a used one. My neighbor (who just sold his house) didn't wanna bother moving it to Florida so I saved him the trouble...

Man, I wish it was loaded... unfortunately, it came empty. That reminds me, he was suppose to throw the compression checker in there, too. I'll have to ask him about that tomorrow when he brings the keys. I just hope I didn't pay too much. Seems like these are always in the 4-figure range without the 7-drawer unit that hangs on the side and I paid less than that. Hopefully I did okay.

Keith, David Eastman (Cobradave) is a snap on dealer. As you recall, he has also expressed interest in forming a local Cobra club. You will certainly get a good deal from him considering our mutual interests.

LOL - Man, it's gonna cost a mint to fill it up. I checked used prices on eBay ($2500 to $3000) and list prices for new ones at the Snap-On website (ouch... $6280). Looks like my $800 was well spent. :D

Yeah, Snap-On is among the best stuff, with a price to prove it. Steve's and my nephew is also a Snap-On dealer. It would cost a fortune to fill that sucker at the dealer's cost.

Heck I might want your hand-me-downs! My Craftman roll around will have to do for now! Amazing how fast it has been filling up though. So nice to open a drawer and get exactly what you want with out digging around. Enjoy!

Did anyone find my new Snap-On toolbox? A guy was moving to Florida was supposed to drop it by my house on his way south. I can describe it if necessary:D
