I'd like to point out that it is acceptable to have multiple 10mm sockets. This is an important distinction.
Obligatory meeeeememee.

Its amazing how often I find a bolt that works in my bolt-bucket.
All of the other junk I hold onto though.. different story.
In reply to mtn :
Someone actually made a real life tomacco plant. Tobacco and tomatoes are both nightshades, so they grafted a tomato plant to tobacco plant roots. The leaves contained nicotine but the fruit didn't.

You can tell some hack made this meme... you don't use torches to make things liquid.
NB: I am sure there are good technicians in the south, but every vehicle I have worked on from Southern states has been a complete hack rig job. I did a radiator in an Alabama plated Ram 1500 yesterday and it left with 300% more fasteners holding the radiator and what was left of the fan shroud. No reason for everything to be missing but sheer laziness.
In reply to Pete. (l33t FS) :
Mrs VCHs Camaro was "restored" by some guy in South Carolina. It was converted to an automatic, and I discovered the clutch pedal stuffed up under the dash, held up there by the carpet. When the radio died a few years ago, I went to replace it and there was a spray paint can plastic lid jammed in there to hold the old one in place.
Stereotypes. They exist for a reason.
In reply to volvoclearinghouse :
Forgot one. The RX-7 I got from Alabama was in really nice condition without the usual array of missing fasteners, brake lines welded shut, etc.

That's a bit like my thought that there must be some people in the US that change their engine oil. You sure couldn't tell that by what oil pans look like on cars imported to Canada. I'd never encountered the famous "Oil pan sludge" before that.
