    I actually do, stop being such an elitist. Yeah I’ve moved on to better tools, but the young and much more broke engineer that I was depended on HF for a lot of things.

    Sorry you don’t know how to “mechanic” other than with brute force. Try learning a little.

      Learn what?

      I’ve replaced head gaskets before using 3/8" drive ratchet, sockets and extensions before, even the exhaust bolts didn’t cause the tools (non HF tools) to break.

      This HF shit is just piss poor tempered, not suitable for any serious real world use when the extension can’t even handle the socket sizes that came in the same kit.

        Then you should know bolts in the brakes see the finest dust, the saltiest water, heat cycle almost as much as the engine, etc etc.

        I originally laughed at this meme because I’ve been here. Now you don’t seem so funny.
