We drive old cars at this house. It’s even become somewhat of a joke. One day at my husband’s work, a building wide email was sent out notifying the employees that a “mature Volkswagon” has it’s lights on in the parking lot. A few minutes later, a colleague sent an email to my husband wondering if that was his “mature Passat” with the lights on. 🙂 It wasn’t his car with the lights on, but the politically correct “mature” in reference to old cars has stuck! 🙂 🙂
Our mature Passat is 20 years old, and my husband has been a champ at keeping it running. That poor car has needed a lot of TLC over the years in the engine department.
The problem we’ve run into with standard ratchet sets is that you’ll be in the middle of a car fix and you’ll need that one special tool that you don’t have. It’s super frustrating because you have to stop what you’re doing and run to the store and hope they have it.
One thing we love about this kit is that it comes with so many specialty bits and ratchet features that help you in those tight places!
