Thank God I don't live in Commiefornia.

You always have a room here in Texas Roger and a safe for your guns :)
You are kind and you never know when that happens. In the meantime, I will be a mole so when you travel here we can explore the good parts. :)

Ordered a 3 piece Knipex Cobra set. I have one pair that I absolutely love. I use it daily and have been wanting the set. They are a really versatile tool. Also ordered a set of Knipex flush snips as well.

Also picked up a DeWalt corded/cordless shop vac with an Amazon gift card I got. I’ve been wanting one of these for awhile after using them at work. They are little beasts and have a decent run time. This will help in tight spaces that I need to clean out where my regular size shop vac is too big to get too.

One day Ill get a mini shop vac. Carrying around my 14 gallon is not fun, especially in a hatchback.

Did you see the Honda Odessey has a built in shop vac in the back of it. Read its pretty powerful as well. Kinda cool.

Yea, I always smirk when I see the commercials for it. Pretty smart for a family wagon. Every minimvan should have a shop vac IMO. I know I make a mess just with ash and food crumbs. Can't imagine the mess if I had multiple kids going back and forth to sporting events/school/etc.

Yeah I got it because it wasn't my money and has been on my wishlist for a year or so.

Yeah I don't have a need for one, have the GUV on the wall in the garage and another stainless shopvac. But a small one would be nice to take inside for whatever.

Having detailed my wife's car yesterday (SUV NOT minivan) I can assure you its a shit show. I'll be putting the min shop vac on my Father's Day list as well, I have a 16 gallon and found out its a bitch rolling it around my inclined driveway

Wonder why car companies have been reluctant to include them? Seems like a no brainer to me.

My car has so much extra room in das boot around the spare I ended up fitting a great deal of stuff that was in my cargo area, under my cargo area. Had my shackles, tow straps, cordage, trash bags, emergency rain suit, flares, first aid kit all rolling around on the top deck. Now it's all stowed away out of sight. Plenty of room to fit a full size spare if the cheap ass bean counters would of allowed it.

I have the M18 vac and use it all the time. Only complaint is that they could have done a little better with the hose storage.

Besides the obvious uses I find it super handy to take along when I go camping. Not only to clean up when packing down but I also found that it will inflate (in reverse) and deflate air mattresses in half the time it takes my stupid 4D cell battery pump. The best part is not having to buy fresh D cells every trip.

I almost went with that one but I liked the smaller size of the one I got. The one I ordered isn't a wet vac.. don't think I'll need it for what I plan for it.
