PICS OF YOUR LATEST PURCHASE


Recommended Posts

Congrats on the new box! My first double cab was a Matco 45 series. Great value.

Every once in a while I check new retail on my 13 year old Snap On 1023 triple with SS top and workstation--up to $15k plus now…horry sheet. Never selling that one I guess. Nobody getting financing for even half of that outside of the truck.

Static drops are my bag.

Nice box.

Did you go with a 15 or 30 year mortgage on it?

Almost spit my coffee all over the computer this morning.

If i went with Snap-On i might have to give up my left testi and first child. In that order.

Also i went with Matco cause no one in my shop has a Matco box. Now i sit next to it and hand wax it daily.

If it's worth building, it's worth over building.

Some cheap new speakers for my girlfriend's Sentra since the stock ones blew out long ago. Keeping the stock HU for now.

Massive LX6 for the front doors:

Rockford R169X3 for the rear deck:

Should hopefully at LEAST sound clearer (and obviously less blown up) than what she has now...

Good news is unless you ram it with a vehicle or beat the crap out of it, it'll never lose value and should gain if you buy right. I've traded in for 50-100% more money than I've paid for each box (bought my 45 with side cab for $2900, trade in for 4500, etc.). Only took me 4 units to go from a Craftsman to my current setup, and I have less than half of retail into it. Just be patient and wait for the right deal. Also helps if you rotate tool guys each purchase--the Matco guy knows what you paid for it but in a couple years when it's worth more the Snap On guy does not.

Bad news is you'll only be able to get rid of it back to a dealer on trade in. Like I said, nobody getting a loan for that kind of cash away from the truck. Also moving them gets to be a PIA. Pretty much pay a flat bed tow truck $100 each time you change location.

we use a come along and a golf cart trailer to move ours...

mac, snapon, matco. we have a bit of everything.

If I had access to one I'd do that too. Tow truck driver works next door and is insured if anything happens. Worth a bit of cash for that alone.

My old Snappy dealer would move it if needed. Even let me borrow his show trailer for the weekend when I moved 200 miles away. Current one won't move a box for anyone.

Bobcat and a truck bed is how I always see them moved.

2500lbs+ and $50k worth of tools and box--no effing way.
