yep yep, and if you wait for a sale its even better
just get the black case one, with an good metric and standard assortment.. put a set of screw drivers in the top storage thing, along with a towel... then place a towel between the sockets and top (When you close it) it keeps them from rattling.. and put some hook side velcrow on the bottom to keep it in place in your trunk.. :-) don't forget a mini-mag light.

Mine is 144 pieces...
You really should get a standard and metric set so your get the right fit all the time. You'll need short and longer sockets, so that doubles the pieces. wratchets to use on the sockets. and all those wrenchs. It comes in a nice carrying case too. Has one of those screw drivers with magnetic tips also, with a few different attachements.

I agree. Everytime I start a new project, I have to run to the store to get the right tools.
Its better to just get everything at once. It will also be cheaper in the long run this way.

Well...you'll have to look for Husky brand then. HD doesn't carry Craftsmen, only Sears...
but I agree with Bill, I just picked up a 126 piece tool kit from Sears and it rocks. I spent $90+tax with the sale. It's a bargain when compared to buying them separately when needed.
