No matter how the week was Snap On Friday always makes it better.

I sure do miss these stories had to come back 1 year later for my Hamilton and Clay show 👍😎👍

[@cowcatcher9186]

Lmao! “I dunno bout eatin no farm raised cow”

[@WizzRacing]

My old dealer gave away hats, shirts and them little plastic 6 pack ice chest...The way he seen it. Free advertisement...

[@willhartford6770]

My dealer tries to give me free hats every time he gets new ones in. If I'm buying something that week, I'll take the free hat. But if I'm just browsing, I insist on paying for the hat. Seems a fair deal to me! Lol

[@timcarroll1681]

I always love the socks they are the best

[@codydayton3573]

I like the snap on packaging, lol. I keep all my boxes.

[@bjblanchard1508]

Every time I see that vice on his truck it reminds me of when Thomas put those holes in it with a center punch

[@Randy1290]

Can't wait for the 3/8 brushless!

[@TechMay]

That’s awesome that some of those shops are getting their techs stuff from snap on ! I’ve never heard of that at all.

[@alienworkshop37]

Good thing it’s Friday. Been a 6300 mile week. Time for some tool talk after a busy week

[@bluefj-wc3vz]

That CT761 is definitely my favorite impact.

[@jrburns100]

My snap on guy is pretty cool. He does giveaways all the time for $1,000 worth of tools, speakers, hats with purchases of $400 or more. I’ve not seen a tool box, but if you buy a new box you get a massive tv and Nintendo switch with it.

[@jwboilermaker]

“You know when you put that tool in your hand…”. That’s where my mind was in the gutter Clay

[@darrylschmidt704]

Hi Clay, Thanks for telling us about Knipex a while back. I tried one and love it. I have 3 Cobras now and will be picking up pliers soon...

[@georgeferlazzo7936]

Hello again Clay Thank you for another Great Video. Son I think you're having way too much fun. Stirring the pot!!! Lol ;))

[@botsbass842]

Handling rank cattle is some of the most fun a man can have with his clothes on. I used to build pens 9' high out of cypress board, cause it would give when pine would crack.

[@alexandershriver284]

I love my snap on guy, just bought a new roll cart and he gave me a jacket and a hat. Just for a roll cart, blew my mind

[@TWR358]

I bought a SO just like the one Hamilton is wearing in this video, from him at the meet up. Still like brand new. It is my “sunday” hat. 👍🏻

[@brianrhubbard]

Had to come back here to tell you what my dealer gave me for Christmas. A Snapon dust pan and broom. LOL

[@jrbpit1]

I drove home from the meet up with a few Snap-On hats, towels, socks, etc….

[@seasgarage]

What a great day it is indeed!

[@fasteddie8225]

Those little green pliers are hard to top!!

[@eadiesel326]

Stepped on the Snap On truck yesterday, grabbed a bunch of stuff and told him don’t tell me how much it cost just throw it on the bill, Lol sometimes it’s better to not know

[@KoonTrucking]

Exactly

[@AGuyFromWV]

Wish all dealers were held to Hamilton’s standards, they’d sell a lot more tools

[@marcusgoldinger6675]

Just like he says the tools are only as good as the person who sells em I love my matco dealer therefore I buy matco same with majority of people at my shop no one really likes the snap on guy we all love there tools don’t get me wrong but dealers a shithead so he don’t get the 4K (don’t kmow exact but has to be a lot) payments that my shop throws at our matco guy🤷‍♂️

[@Austinthoms5575]

Won a Klipsch snap on speaker today from my dealer. Good times!!

[@Randy1290]

My snap on guy got me with the 100th anniversary swivel ratchets. They were 100 off

[@hash46176]

[@19ADAM80]

👍🏼

[@paulsouders3489]

Man I had a deer steak one time when I was young

[@johnharbaugh9471]

Maybe "shag green carpeting" could add flair to the packaging?

[@kevinkieel6778]

Yeah your so right on the packaging .... 1000 bucks on a socket set and it comes in a cheap flimsy tray

[@TheInfectedWreck]

FInally grabbed a PH3050 air hammer in green this week, that thing got all of the punch!

[@isaacharo5501]

True about the packaging! It gets thrown away immediately. There's some Snap On tools I don't even know what I paid. I just look at my dealer and say, "Is my payment going up or staying the same?". If he replies with "staying the same". I walk out of the truck with it!

[@Toyotas_n__Tools]

LoL the other day going down the freeway I seen a cow on the other side of the fence and probably 30 seconds later on the other side I seen a state trooper headed its direction so I flashed my lights at him signaling so he could make a u turn that was nearby between the ditches separating N and S bound... After I made my stop about 20 minutes later on my way back up that trooper had got ahold of the farmer and so he was helping slow people down so nothing bad happened.

[@markheater470]

I totally agree. The packaging definitely looks cheap for a company like snap on. As always great snap on Friday video 👍

[@davidpinnix7446]

When I had quad runners, I would order exhaust etc and I would be pissed if I didn't get a sticker! Good video.

[@warrenself]

Matco packaging isn’t bad. At least the stuff I’ve gotten. Mac too.

[@jeramy2398]

Had a Holstein heifer climb out an open top trailer one time.

[@kevinkieel6778]

I completely switched over to knipex plier sets. But buy them direct ... snap on marks them up another 100 to 150 bucks. They are one of the best in my opinion

[@KoonTrucking]

Actually snap on is the cheapest of all the tool trucks on Knipex. Take a look at this video and I show you why that is kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqmxaaqbd7F5pZY

[@Elk4758]

Yeah at no point have I ever thought: Snap-On needs to up there packaging. I would say this definitely falls under, stuff nobody else cares about.

[@KoonTrucking]

You know it’s cheap especially after seeing Nepros

[@Elk4758]

@@KoonTrucking Yeah I have seen how Nepros does it. That is actually the only time I have really noticed packaging. All I could think is: man the packaging is ridiculous on these things.

[@seasgarage]

I always thought they had the cheapest looking packaging. If they had some blue in it, they would sell more!

[@gregboggs5957]

Epic box red and black looks sharp

[@OffroadTrucker740]

My 7" knipex cobras stay in my pocket every day doing water service work. They get used as a hammer for curb box lids atleast once or twice a week and get used on every meter change. They tighten up packing nuts on leaky valves. They are going on 2 years old now and still hold up great. Ive been tempted to keep a 2nd pair of 12" on my truck for plumbing up my brass parts on meter set rebuilds. I honestly dont like standard channel locks anymore. i've been converted.

[@OnTheToolsWithSal]

Nice!! I’m a water plant operator I keep the 150’s in my pocket every day

[@will104107]

Great video as always Clay, I alway get free hats, shirts, jackets, and other promo stuff from the Snap-on dealers, but not from my Matco however he gives me great deals well below list price on tools so I'm good with that.

[@jimmypickens1763]

Awesome video

[@ecleveland1]

I'm still pissed at the Honda salesman that said he would get a free hat when some came in. After I bought my wife's car he forgot all about it. I won't ever buy another car from that SOB again I can promise you that!

[@KorbinRock]

Matco Friday over here! Love tool trucks

[@85jmccoy]

Clay,you have never formally bought a hat or snap on jacket....but rest assured...you bought em! Lol

[@KoonTrucking]

Ha ha at least i didn’t know it

[@wyattneth1619]

Hell free stuff?? I can’t get my dealer to come to the shop

[@Toolaholic7]

I have an uncle that is a farmer and we did get a half of beef from him.Has taken a few to get slaughtered

[@mph3500]

It's easier to sell when it's out of the box and in your hands. Presentation is quite a bit of the transaction.

[@brianreese9318]

I deal with cows every day they are a pain in the ass

[@KoonTrucking]

Big time

[@asmautollc]

I actually like Snap On’s packaging. Has a nice glossy finish with colorful graphics on the outside, pretty thick cardboard stock, and gives the impression somebody placed the tools in it by hand, which has an element of nostalgia to it. Plus their shrink wrap is high quality. I never see a sealed Snap On product with rips or cracks in the shrink wrap.

[@KoonTrucking]

Funny you mentioned the package rips haasl tools just posted on his Instagram delivering screwdrivers to a customer and shows the package ripped open from the plastic.

[@user-fp3gx2ow7p]

I miss the Snap On Friday videos.

How are the double box flex head ratcheting wrenches they look nice and say usa on them

Can you do a review on the snap on 3/8 swivel sockets please 👍

[@KoonTrucking]

yep I have talked about them on my Instagram before but I got you !

[@I_just_change_oil]

Heres the review. Snap on 3/8 swivel sockets are ggggggrrrreaat! Buy the gearwrench.

[@jefferysmith5280]

My snapon guy tried to tell me the snapon pliers are better than the knipex....i said u def a company man

[@KoonTrucking]

Most definitely drinking the corporate kool aid because KNIPEX is the king of pliers. If not why are they sold on EVERY tool truck. Nobody can touch Knipex. Not even close !
