Doesn't Matter
I usually buy Craftsman. Mix that with whatever I steal from work. At work we usually use mostly Snap-On. The Marine Corps pays for the Snap-On tools. I gots no fancy tool boxes cause I got no garage.

Snap-on, Matco, Craftsman for quality tools... if I need something cheap that I do not plan on using very much... Stanley or Husky...

Depends on what I'm buying. A brief list of what I have/own

Sockets- Craftsman 1/4, 3/8's and 1/2 drives (Metric and SAE)
Ratchets- Snap-On 1/4, 3/8, 1/2.
Wrenches- Snap-On and Craftsman
Air Impacts- Matco 1/2, and a Snap-On 3/8's
Impact Sockets- Matco 1/2 and 3/8's (Metric)
Electric Impact- Snap-On 3/8's
Electric Screw Gun- Snap-On
Extensions and Joints- Snap-On
Body Panel Tools- Matco
Pliers and such- Chanel-locks
Screwdrivers- Craftsman. I'd like to get a Matco set
Grinders- Milwaukee and Blue-Point

I personally like Snap-On tools. Not impressed with their air or electric tools. But hand tool wise, totally worth the money. When I buy tools, I buy something that is going to last me. Kinda why I buy Snap-On/Matco/Craftsman

My Father started as a truck driver/distributor for Mac and is now a higher up for the Eastern half of the US...I've accumulated quite a good bit of Mac tools over the years, I love it when a distributor leaves for another job and leaves his truck in my dad's care, usually get hella good deals on that stuff as they destock a truck.

Had great times when I was a kid going to the Nascar and NHRA stuff with him, I think thats what really got me into modding my vehicles.
