| OH REALLY ???? ARE YOU DEAD SURE OF THAT???? YA WANT TO BET YOUR LIFE ON THAT ???? Setting on my desk wright now is a brand new still in the box Snap On timing lite modle #EETL 500 , and just where do you think it was made , CHINA . BUT IT DOES SAY SNAP ON. and for just the small price of 332dollars and change it is mine , and oh it was on sale . Am i going to keep it , Ain't no way it is going back to the Snap OFF tool man when i see him friday . I will keep looking for a OLD made in the USA timing light on Craig's list or E/Bay . Bad enough i do have some China made wood working tools that are just about junk. All of my mechanic tools are MADE IN THE USA . And some of them are OLD just like me . |

| Tools might be, but I don't think their tool boxes are, they have a big plant in Iowa that makes them |

| | You just wish Snap-On stays US. The have a factory in China and are making stuff there. About a year ago they began removing the USA markings from tools as they changed dies. Its a mix right now, but at least some of the stuff you buy from SO is made in China. Charles |

They are forced to make the move. If they don't their tools will be so expensive that NOBODY will buy them no matter how good they are.
There simply aren't enough chest-thumping patriots who are willing to spend a "little" more on true USA made products to support the company. It's either move production overseas, or go out of business right now. |

| The tool boxes are made in the u.s.a right? Know they have one plant in Iowa because my uncle works there and they make toolboxes and he said they closed a Canada plant and expanded there's in Iowa so they could make more in the u.s.a and close there Canada plant |
