I was thinking the same thing. Im not hating on the guy by any means but, me personally i couldnt work like that. I need to know where everything is especially if something is missing. My dads shop is the same way. When i do big jobs ( head gaskets, motor/ tranny swaps dash removals) every bolt is labeled in sandwich bags. Also if im not done with the job at the end of the day every tool is located and put back. My dad total opposite bolts and tools everywhere but it works for him.

I'm a Toyota man. Have a first gen Sequoia and Highlander. I can appreciate the simplicity and good engineering, those 10,12,14mm are so common on them. It really amazes me how few tools I actually used to do a timing belt on the 4.7L. But I also work on old american iron. Tractor and small block chevy so I ha e to ha e that set of SAae standard tools to complement the metrics. So even though I'm no pro I have an ever expanding collection.

If a company comes out with a battery powered air hammer that actually will perform close to the air ones will change the game for sure. I know they can do it because they already have battery hammer drills out for construction use. Then the only reason for air would be to blow guns and to fill tires.

T-ten students for the most part are in a better place than any other group of students from a similar votech program. I’m a former t-ten grad, master Toyota tech, became a Master Lexus Tech, Master Service Advisor and current ASM at a Lexus Store. To my boy Alex for all the people saying that if you worked or were more organize you wouldn’t need 2 of everything, to those people I say my top producing techs have duplicates of most tools because we all know that 10mm sockets falls into a black hole, and those Wrenches vanish without trace, and because it’s PIMP AF to have 5 different size 10mm sockets (Toyota/Lexus techs will get that reference), and lastly my top producing techs have carts that are perfectly organize messes. This is a good channel, keep up the great work.

If I were you I'd start with a company like tekton and get a 3/8 short ratchet, flex head ratchet medium length and get the 6mm-24mm short and deep sockets. Get a screwdriver set, plier set, vice grips, set of wrenches (combination and ratcheting). Get a few hammers (ball pein, soft blow and a mallet. Pry bars are a essential for suspension work as well. These are the bare necessities, you'll eventually need things like 1/4, 1/2, sockets/ ratchets. 1/2 impact sockets are good to do 24mm-36mm short and deep. Swivel impacts are essential for time savings but you can get away with a swivel 3/8 adapter. Torque wrenches are good to have, a jack and jack stands. A drain pan is good /oil storage container/ funnel. Picks, electric ratcheting wrenches, impact guns, inspection mirrors, hose release tools, serpentine belt kit, pullers, air hammer, DMM, test light, magnets, storage and organization is key as well. Start with a harbor freight roller cart (3 drawer), piece it together in that order and you'll be good.

I see a lot of snap-on and Milwaukee. The advice I have gotten from techs where I work at is to not buy from the tool trucks because you will spend a lot of money and your tool box won't be as full. I buy a lot from Amazon and certain things I do get from snap-on. For power tools I buy milwaukee over snap-on because it's a big price difference. I have a few snap-on ratchets because I know they will be reliable. Sunex, and gearwrench are good alternatives. A lot of the tool truck tolls are rebranded anyways. I bought a $40 wrench from mac the other day and I received a wrench with another brand, looked it up and it costs $20 online

@@marvino3829 I started 2 years ago at a Lexus dealership as a lube tech. I am currently in the me torship program to become a flagging tech. Careful when buying off the mac tool truck because they sell a lot of tools you can find on Amazon for almost double. For example a knock light from ezred is $45 on amazon and the truck has it for $65. Good brands are otc tools, gearwrench, sunex, ezred, some tekton stuff, harbor freight a icon tools, some other harbor freight tools, milwaukee. For sockets and wrenches you only use 8mm, 10mm, 11mm (for tire pressure sensors), 12mm,14mm, 15mm wrench (some tie rod for alignments), 17mm, 19mm, 21mm, 22mm ,24mm, 30mm(the socket for the axle nut). 21 and 22 for lug nuts. Bigger sizes mostly for alignment stuff. Some torx and hex don't remember what sizes. Toyota requires a little bit more tools since you guys have more models to work with and you guys do drum brakes. Invest in a 1/4 hex impact driver to remove screws faster. Also invest in a good oil filter wrench. If you need anymore tips feel free to ask. My insta is fcortes626 you can dm me on there and I can tell you what brands I bought of what.

I drive a 2003 Toyota Corolla with the 5 speed transmission. Super reliable. I bought it with only the axle seals leaking and needed an alignment. Of course working at a Toyota dealership I fixed those issues the next day. And I’m religious at maintenance so I don’t have to do anything too crazy as far as repairs. The 1ZZ engine is fantastic for every day driving. Then I have my toy. My 2014 F-250 FX4. I have that truck to haul stuff and to go off roading and when I want to drive a V8. It’s the 6.2L and those engines are very stout and reliable if you take care of it. I buy vehicles that are reliable so I don’t have to work on them because working on cars all day every day every week can wear you down and the last thing I want to do is work on my own vehicles when I get off of work.

If you are done with schooling or if you have some schooling and can show proof you can start at a dealership. If not then you'd have to start like at jiffy lube or something similar. I got hired at a dealership with no experience but I was already done with school and had my degree and 2 ASE certifications. But other people have gotten hired with no ASE Certifications and they're still in school.

if you can get into a dealership go for it, but it is kind of hard with no school/exp. Maybe jiffy lube or something like that to get some experience. You could also start as a porter at a dealer and work your way up.

I personally started at Pepboys not as a lube tech but as a mechanic and it’s a great place to get some ASE’s and move up. I was hired as a mechanic with little experience in a shop, pretty easy to move up to a tech or go to a dealership

Hey man, been watching you for a while your videos quality has improved like crazy over the year great job keep up the good work. My question is are tech schools worth it? I’m 20 I just worked at one shop for 3 years and now at a new shop starting off as a C tech. I haven’t went to tech school yet and idk if I should at this point. Learning hands on is great I’ve learned a lot asking questions and helping other techs while I’m waiting for recs or it’s slow. Is it worth going to school? Or should I just stick hands on? Thanks

I say go to school and get your ASE certifications. The more knowledge you have the better for you. Stay away from UTI because it's expensive. Go to a community college and go for a degree not just a certificate. You have to see it as are you going to be wrenching you're whole life? What if you get injured and can't wrench anymore? If you have a degree you can use it to get. Another position within the shop.

If you have a solid mentor that's willing to show you the ropes I think you don't need school with the amount of experience you have acquired. Get the study guides and take your ASEs, one at a time at your pace. Contrary to popular belief you don't need school to pass ASE tests
