Finally found the perfect truck tool set

I've been keeping an eye out for a mechanic's tool set to keep in my truck. I wanted something in a molded plastic case to keep everything organized that's not too big to slide under the back seat and had a good assortment of sockets and some combination wrenches too. It seems like if the set had a good set of combination wrenches it would end up being too big for my needs. Or something compact and portable wouldn't have the sockets and wrenches I want. This one ticked off almost all the sockets I would wanted (99.6% lacking only a 10mm deep socket) had the 8mm-14mm combination wrenches I wanted and throws in a set of channel locks, needle nose pliers, and a good set of screw drivers. Pretty sure I can disassembly almost any car I've ever worked on with these. Except for a Jeep with it numerous Torx drive screws.

I’ve had this set for about 4 years now, it’s been pretty spot on for me. The tools are starting to rust a little but I take this set on my boat every time I go and theyve gotten wet a few times. I lost the 10mm wrench and I couldn’t find one the right length to fit the mold and crescent sent me a new one for free.

I got my dad that one for his truck. He really likes it

Yep. I have the same set.

I bought that same set for my truck.

I bought mine for $94 from eBay when they had a 10 or 20% off coupon. Yes it is great for the truck

I've been looking for a tool set like this, it has a perfect assortment of tools. Thanks for the link, going to order a set this weekend to use for the truck and bateau

Looks pretty good but wish they'd drop the 1/4" and 1/2" ratchet. For a portable set, a 3/8 does almost everything.

I’ve had this set for a few years. It was $99 when I bought it. It’s bailed me out more than a few times

Can someone who has this let me know the approx. dimensions of the case? Wondering if it will fit in underseat compartment. Thanks.

Never had a tool set in my truck nor needed one.... I dont drive a ford either though.

I'm not that well educated about tool sets. I have always bought craftsman from sears.
My portable tool box is just all the basic stuff I may need thrown in one of these...
No organization though.
I like the organization of the set posted in the OP.
Question: How is the overall quality of Crescent branded tools? Like I said, I've only ever bought craftsman, and was told most other brands are made out of cheap recycled metal.

OP,
Just wanted to give you props on posting a link to this tool set last month. Had one shipped to my house asap and I've just about used the damn thing every day since it arrived. It literally has almos everything you'll ever need for small house tasks or working on your vehicle. Best money I've spent all year
