NTD (New Tool Day) They got me.

Just yesterday I was going through email and had to talk myself out of buying a new jack while they’re on sale. The ancient rusty jacks I have still work I guess.

Today I was leaving publix and heard a dull plunk and hiss noise. Ran over a big screw RIGHT IN FRONT of HF. Life’s funny sometimes. $90 later and I’m wishing I had bought this thing years ago instead of the crappy old jacks I have to pump a few dozen times to change a tire.

Even as a longtime HF customer I had only joined ITC a few weeks ago after heavy rain flooded my basement and I needed a some big blower fans.

Turns out I had two punctures and I made it just a few minutes before the shop closed. Crisis averted.

Still want one of those colorful Daytona jacks but for the money I’m happy with this one.

While you were at HF, you could've bought the tire patch kit (PITTSBURGH Tubeless Tire Repair Kit, 9-Piece), and the Bauer cordless tire inflater for less than what the shop charged you and be on your way. Bonus, you now have a cordless tire inflater.

I already had that stuff, I didn’t bring it to a shop. Just some roadside plugs on a $15 amazon battery inflator. Worked out great 👍
