Miss my old Marco dealer. Every week he would come up to everyone & ask if you had anything for him to warranty today. Can’t say the same thing for dealers.
My MATCO guy is as good as they get, He rebuilt my EZ Red 3/4" ratchet that I purchased off my MIA Snap On Guy. And he didn't charge me a dime. That is why I am a MATCO fan !
We call that the clay Koon blue over here in jersey I’m sure no one will disagree with me I know a few ppl that call it Clay Koon blue when we’re talking Matco
Ive lost a flashlight before. Next time they came in for service i got it back. Stuck to the muffler for 2 months.
Michael is a good dude. Our Snap On guy is like him. We've asked him for certain pieces and if he didn't have it but it was in a set he has, he has no problem opening up a set to pull the piece out. That there keeps me buying stuff from him. Much to my wallet's dismay.
I am a new dealer in Arkansas starting my route late January. This video was super helpful regarding how good dealers handle warranty. Much appreciated!!
I only have a cornwell dealer but he is great. He will warranty any cornwell tool. Also flexible on payments and has a good selection.
Myself,I like Cornwell better than matco
I agree completely
Who else is just waiting for clay to have a midlife crisis and buy his White with blue trim box setup?
wow wish I had a Matco Dealer, Michael is an honorable trustworthy guy!, another great video Clay! I appreciate your hard work!! always enjoy the videos and learning from you!
I've had pretty good luck with having good tool dealers, especially matco tool dealers, they never hesitated to warranty the product they sell. The new matco dealer i got back in January is the best ove had so far, fought tooth and nail to get warranty on my revelx, that I didn't even get through him. That speaks volumes alone.
White with orange trim for the win! *PLEDGE furniture polish* is the best to use
Always like the conversations with Matco Michael wish we had a Matco dealer not as fun ordering on line
I would seriously be willing to fly from Alaska to buy from this guy Every week...
That's why I went with white, I should have a hutch and locker next week.
LED light in there you can find your tools way easier - no idea why anyone would want a dark color tool box.
Loves the videos keep up the good work. It would be nice if you could do a tool box tour of your new snap on box. I would love to see the set up 👍👍🏴🏴
Its all about respect from the tool guy and the tech if you both have respect for each other things will go just fine.And white with blue or red trim🔧🔧🔧🔧
That Ford tool is for installing that crank pulley. I use the old crank bolt cut in half and use a air hammer to install the crank and then run the rest down then torque it. Those bolts are torque to yield lol
You are absolutely right Clay! I have a Black box and that black color is like a magnet for dust.
I hope they make the 1/4" locking flex in the blue
Me too
That and Hi Visibility yellow
Man! As laid-back as that conversation was there should’ve been a bottle of Jack Daniels in a couple of glasses.
Your one of my new go to for tool info. Love the vids. 24 year tech and have way to much invested in tools. LoL. I have a great matco dealer and a great Cornwell dealer. Our area hasn’t had a Snapon rep in so long I don’t have very many of there stuff left. Went through hell dealing with mail in warranty wit a broken tip on a Phillips screwdriver and a ratchet. Three attempts to get it right.
My dad kicked out one Matco dealer out he had.Had a broken socket and the dealer would not warranty it.Matco is good with warrantying broken tools without a dealer,do it online.Had to set up an online account to do it up to 15 tools.Recieved 13 of the 15 replacements sending in 15 tools.Another way to check for a bad coil is switch it to another cylinder.If there is a change,coil is bad.Midwest Tool Review did buy one of those blue handled ratchets and mentioned you in the video he put out
Well said, you teach what you tolerate!
Clay is gonna send me to the poor house if I keep watchin' and buyin'.
Great video y'all have a great weekend and stay safe 👍
That coil tester looks just like an electrical "hot stick" I have a couple of them for 220 just lights up when you get power might work the same way
j2339 I’ve got a couple for using around the house too. The first house I bought was wired by a blind, drunk Amish I think and I was always fixing wires around the house.
I tried the one for home electrical but didn't detect on coil. It detects voltage the matco one detects the magnetic field generated by the coil.
You guys are awesome . Excellent content!
Thank you
I ran over my 1/4in Milwaukee 12v hex impact with a full garbage truck and it still works perfectly haven't had an issue with it since and have no intentions of sending it in either till something else fails.
Great information Michael!
That is a fact Jack! Great video man.
Love these longer videos!
Michael is a TOP NOTCH dealer!
The Matco blue is definitely nice including the flex ratchet. The Matco tool truck closest to me drives around on the empty side. Never has anything. Nice video
I love your channel and I can tell Michael has done this job. I still waiting my blue flex head. I run an an 18 bay shop wands tool so we can’t get inuk
I’ve broken the pawl on my long snap on 3/8 ratchet before. I had to fight with my dealer to get it fixed. I’m glad he’s not my snap on guy anymore.
Love that e vids just bought my first snapon toolbox a 26"
Greetings from Australia
It does suck you guys can’t get Matco over there! You can’t order it off eBay ? Or it just can’t be shipped over there ?
I'm glad I got a good Matco, snap-on, Mac tools and Cornwell dealers all nice guys never had an issue. I do hate when I see techs abuse there tools and even hit there tool box with there tools when they get all frustrated 😲. Tools and the tool boxes are wayyy too much money to treat it like crap and not take care of it all. Usually the younger kids act that way.
Michael is the best Clay same for you 👍
MATCO RATCHETS ARE AWSOME. They do not reverse direction and skip when your trying to break a stubbrn bolt free!!! snap on ratchets do unfortunetly!!
My mac and snap-on dealer are great, fully stocked trucks, willing to give me discounts for buying stuff outright. Our Matco guy doesn't have much on his truck so I'd never buy from him in the past. I ordered something small to see how it would be and a month and no tool. I'm glad I started small, because it obviously wasn't going to end with me being happy regardless.
Fantastic philosophy for a tool guy. Unfortunately some places put so many restrictions on tool guys they are afraid to make decisions that help him or her sell and warranty products.
Those white boxes are not going to be that good if anyone smokes in the shop. I know my white under ware always has nicotine stains in them. Thanks for the video.
I have a black and orange 6s and a black classic series and they both show every spec of dust. I use quick spray detailer on they daily. It’s part of the process when I clean my tools at the end of the day
*WHITE* is way easier to see inside the box to as all of the tools are easier to see.
That's why most of the tool companies sell a box with black drawer liners. Think about it, if you cant see what tools you have, you are more likely to purchase a tool you dont need.
Thanks guys 🔥
I've got a 18 inch brass pipe that slides perfect over my 6" flex 1/4" matco ratchet that have had since 08 never had an issue with it. With in reason of course I'll go up ratchets if can. I did have anvil snap by ball but that was someone else using it and think it was operator error
I just bought that coil tester today. I hope i don't regret it.
Used to sell Snap On....here in the north when we would get a little snow or ice there is no stopping that truck with all the weight. You would just slide forever...
I finally got my blue ratchet and I love it, but I also would like to see the blue color as an option on all Matco tools.
Damnit Clay. I need that ignition tester now lol
My Matco guy warranties everything with no issue. My one light broke at the magnetic swivel base. He took it off of another light right there on the truck.
My Matco and Cornwell guy's have been first rate to me. I am lucky my Cornwell guy was a 30yr tech and former shop owner. My Matco guy stands by his warrantee without fail. I have it good
Hey Koon! I have a request!!! I just acquired for a Matco 4s Triple bay bottom and hutch in Tan and Black! its a pretty rare color combo! Can you have Michael talk about it next week on some uncommon colors? Thanks!
I use a balanced installer like that for the ford coyote and gt500’s
Clay has got to be Crippin!!! All blue everything 😂😂😂😂
Haha
Good video. If you read conments on you tube warranty is a big issue with tool dealers. If you take care of your cistimers they will take care of you.
Matco Michael has sold a few tools to this greasy service guy. I love my neck light! I have the luxury of overnighting warranty or consumables to my customers; and physically return the old ones when I'm near them next. Perhaps the tool trucks could do that? It's cheaper than you think.
I wonder how many techs/mechanics have stumbled across this film and are now lined up waiting to get on Michael’s truck to purchase their tools.
You're one of my top 10 channels
Thank you! I appreciate that
Great video I have a question for MATCO or SNAP ON how much is for calibrate a torque wrench
I have that coil tester. Fast and easy to use.
I call that color cobalt blue and it’s neat
My matco dealer warranty out a flashlight that may or may not have been ran over by a d8k dozer
We use something like that at work to test power lines to see if they are dead or live
If someone wanted a chrome tool chest will they make it?
Thats just a nocontact voltage tester can pick them up at home depot made by fluke or klein
I have a klein i wonder if it will work the same
They won't work I tried.
*MATCO* for the win!
I love the flex matco and heard gear wrench factory makes matcos ratchets for em is why the gears swap except the dual spring for the pal I love my Mac axis and my snap on they all have their uses with me.
I want the blue with the black I’m holding out for the black in the long 3/8 then I’m buying one
That gold rush beef jerkey is awesome i get it from my cornwell Dealer. No mactco or mac in my area.
The blue color of the handles on the toolbox you're referring to are "translucent"....
Candy color paint is "translucent"
I ordered the blue it’s damn nice but the blue box and black trim
Man I need that coil tester
I have a paddle style COP tester and one of those like shown in this video.
I think if I were to order a box, I'd get a 6S in that hammered grey and the red trim. Theres RevelX on OfferUp near me, it's a dark solid grey and red trim. It's like seeing your celebrity crush, it stops you in your tracks, but you know itll probably never happen. It was box and hutch, 12000, outta my reach.
Hey Michael, How can I get one of your BB caps hanging there?
I’m looking for a long screw gun bit sets can’t find the best one
Clay i m going to get that coil tester next week when my Matco dealer comes in, heck for $25.95 why not? Plus i fixalot of different small engines, it should wrk on them also, ill let you know.
Ur blessed with good dealer. My Matco dealer is pretty awesome but mac dealer🙄
Ask your tool truck dealers to get there trucks scaled on a car scale fully loaded. That would be interesting.
I remember when you had the troubles with your previous Matco dealer that was when i first started watching your videos. Been a fan ever since. I never looked but did the last dealer allow you to film on the truck?
Nope
We need to get matco to make a long 1/4" electric ratchet. Let bombard them with messages
Yes!
Autozone warrantyed a hex bit for me, took it out of a set, as I only brought the broken one. Next time I'll take the set . Not a "truck brand" for sure good for the money.
Nothing wrong with that, I have some Autozone tools from when they were made in Taiwan the sockets would come in metal rails and now they are China made sockets and plastic rails.
being good with warranty will sell tools. if i know my dealer will warranty any ratchet i break reasonably, i'm gonna buy every ratchet i need from him. he might sell me 10-15 ratchets and i warranty 1 every few years and its probably gonna be replacing the gear/pawl. apply the same idea to socket sets or wrenches.
When I hear Mr. Koon and the Matco rep talking about tool box trim colors it reminds me of women talking about expensive shoes. The worst color for ski jackets is white because it shows dirt and is hard to clean. So I figured white tool boxes are for white collar mechanics, the type that work indoors on non-dirty things like washing machines, not vehicle mechanics who work on dirty things in a dirty shop.
So you never wipe off your box because it is a dark color and just leave the grease on it?
@@KoonTrucking Well, my KRL722 is in the basement where I get a little dust but never any grease. I am sorry to report that after 7 years it is still like new. I also restore vintage Snap-On tool boxes. After over 30 years of shop use they can be super greasy. But they clean up to be almost like new as long as they aren't rusty. Because of that I believe Snap-On red is the best tool box color so that everything matches.
I wanna see a metallic blue matco box color
Clay you going to do a review of that allen key type seal puller.
Not much to review on it. It is what it is pretty much.
Put it on a catscale
can you talk about the Matco non slip socket sets. I seen them online. i would like know more about them. Thank you.
Yes I can ask him about them next week
It may sound dumb but from my perspective, why don’t people ceramic coat the boxes so it’s stupid easy to wipe down and clean?
I have that coil tester it doesn't always work
Wish we had Matco tools in Australia
You might be able to order them
Those coil pack tester are just the regular AC/DC detector that you can buy in any hardware store for 10$.
How can I contact Michael about the Snap On tool box?
I worked for a guy who always said there is profit in every job and sometimes the profit is not doing the job.
True. I’ve done jobs that would have been better off never touching
Hello mr.klay I have been watching your videos for years now, and every time I have a question u r always kind enough to respond. I am in the market for an “affordable” torque wrench and the main 2 that have come up are Tekton and cdi. What are your thoughts on those and other wrenches? ($150ish range) thank u sir.
Precision Instruments are good (especially the split beam style, that’s who made Snap On which is my favorite style even over digital) but the Gearwrench digital torque wrench is nice. Olsa Tools makes one that is nice. If you are in the market for a 1/2” KC Tool has a sale on the Gedore now and it is really nice I have it also.
Thank you for your response sir I looked into them and will be going with precision instruments 1/2” drive split beam wrench
How much does thag ratchet cost
i had a snap on dealer that was a real tightwad with warranty and im not a monkey with stuff he angered me so much that i bought alot of stuff off the mac truck he was aways fair about the warranty so alot of my stuff is mac it wasnt until recently i bought stuff of the snap on truck again
In 22 years Turing a wrench only had a Matco guy for 6 years of them he never has any thing will not warranty nothing so I do not own a Matco tool need more guy like Mike would own Matco tool
I can’t blame you if they don’t warranty tools i wouldn’t buy either
Damn! That dude traded a KRL1023 for an entry level Matco 4s because it was white?!?! From a Matco 4325 owner, that’s a stupid trade
And you can’t that bed liner top on a Matco either but the white one was a triple bank too
My tool truck weighed empty at 16k weigh in haven't weighed it loaded
