Thirty years pulling wire and I still argue with my apprentices about half this stuff. This is what actually stays in the bag after the shiny new gadgets get tossed in a drawer. Picked these for the kids reading this too, so they stop buying junk off late night TV. Rate everything solid or a mess, no in between.

My Truck Box Essentials — 3 items
Name	Product	Brand	Type	Price Range	Where I Get It	My Take
1M18 FUEL Hammer Drill	2904-20 Hammer Drill/Driver	Milwaukee	Cordless power tool	$160 to $230	Home Depot or the Milwaukee house account	Solid as it gets. Drives a lag through block without complaining. Battery life is the only thing that ever lets it down.
211-in-1 Screwdriver	32500 Multi-Bit Screwdriver	Klein Tools	Hand tool, screwdriver	$25 to $35	Any hardware store worth the name	Solid, obviously. One tool does the job of six, which is the whole point of being a working man and not a collector.
3Fish Tape	125-foot Steel Fish Tape	Klein Tools	Wire pulling tool	$60 to $90	Electrical supply houses downtown and in the Loop	Solid when you respect it. Snap it back wrong and it'll take your eye out, ask me how I know.
