Torque Wrench
Trying to figure out what kind of torque wrench I should get for working on the car. Who makes a good quality torque wrench that won't necessarily break the bank?

I bought a Powerbuilt torque wrench 4 1/2 years ago when I bought my car and it cost me $40-50. Still works great and I've used it quite a bit.

Spend a good $100 at sears on a craftsman. Better than the cheapo brands does the job well but not as good as Matco or Snap On IMO
