So I was there yesterday and realized no matter how much I prep, there's always that one damn tool I forget. Curious if anyone has a favorite tools to bring list. I will list mine:

-a phillips and a flathead
-wire cutters, vise grips and needle nose pliers
-a hose pick and small 6" prybar
-4lb sledge
-basic metric socket set and wratchet
-metric ratchet wrenches
-a pocket knife and pocket screwdriver

It also depends on why you're there, these tools were for small stuff. I was grabbing random interior parts for my girlfriend's explorer. What would you guys add to the essentials list?

3/8 size socket trays metric & standard.
One medium size Philips & Flat Head.
1 3/8 ratchet & breaker bar.
Cutters.
Gloves.
Adjustable wrench.
Concealable pockets.
Money for the burrito truck.
Tums for the burrito truck.

Lol at the parts you don't want to pay for. You would be amazed at how much fits in the rear seat back cushion of a towncar/crown vic
