Somebody's in trouble

Not yet but I might be later. My wife is usually OK with me spending money since I make it all but I bought something today from snap on that might get me a little bit of an ear beating. My dad has had the same toolbox since I was a little kid, its the snap on intimidator box which was the largest box snap on sold at the time and is still one of the biggest you can get. My dad saw snap on was coming out with the same box but in white with the ford mustang on it he just had to have it so he traded his old one in for it. I made the mistake of telling my dad that I'd probably buy the box back off snap on if I could get a good deal trading in mine, well this morning he told our dealer that and next thing I knew I was working a deal to trade mine in. My box and $5000 later I now own my dads old box. It would have been sad to see it go after all these years and for the deal I got it couldn't pass it up.

Nice box! I'm looking at the flyer for that mustang box right now. It's sweet too but I like the one you have better.

My snap on dealer has always given me what I paid for my boxes as long as I trade up thusly I have had 6 boxes in the past, one at a time of course. I'm not even a mechanic just like quality stuff. Plus I'm only an hour from where they make the boxes(Algona IA)

My best deal on a box was when I bought a repo'd Harley Davidson box, I paid $1500 and a year later traded it for my current box and got $3000 for it on trade. This will be my 5th snap on box but I'm not sure it counts since its been on the property for about 20 years. I paid 6k for my current box about 7yrs ago and in getting 5k on trade which I'm happy with.

Looks like an AWESOME box! :beerchug:

That being said, I will never get why a box with drawers costs so much (NOT trying to start anything, btw :beerchug:) :biggrin2:

Or rolled one across the floor, the suspensions work incredibly well one push and it will keep rolling till you stop it. Uneven floors don't bother them at all.
