Default I actually have to return one

because the stud that locks the slider in is too large for the hole. Actually the hole is too small for the stud. The other works fine. At least the girl working register is hot. Might have to get her number this time =P

Default Some work requires the suspension to be under load...

for example, installing sway bars properly requires the car to be under load, so ramps are the right coice for taht type of work.

Brakes or anything that requires removing the wheels would require the jack stands.

Rhino ramps are awesome, just be careful pulling onto and off the ramps with a lowered car. They tend to tilt slightly upward when the tires are making contact with the lowest part of the ramp.

Default I love tools but when I spend money on them I always say I wish I put it towards mods instead

However once I buy the mods I never have proper tools to do the job. Basically seems like whatever you put into the car mod wise you spend the same amount to get a good set of tools to do the job. I'm lucky my closest Sears is a good 15/20 minutes away or else I'd be their daily. Hardware tools = impulse buy for me since It's generally not something I would purchase online. I usually do quite a bit of research before I make online purchases

Default The closest Sears to me is less than 1/2 mile...

This year I bought myself an iPod with discover points if that tells you anything. Stay away, far away.

Default If mine were that close, I'd be taking my son for a lot more walks than I do now!

I can just imagine when I wheel the stroller back up the driveway and my wife is there:

"What's that in the stroller?"
"Luca."
"No, under his seat."
"Sippie cup."
"Stop bull****ting me, in the SEARS BAG?"

Default are those racing jacks?

its hard to find jacks that'll fit under my car without some wood to drive onto first.
