Now that Hamilton is out of business it would be cool to do an interview of what it’s really like to run a tool truck. For example how much did he need to get started? How much commission to drivers make? Is it worth getting into?

@dw8015 2 года назад

I'm a Snap On fan. Get another Snap On guy for Snap On Friday. That's what I enjoy on your channel..

@rockstarfan886 2 года назад

Much needed video for the non hardcore people who don't watch every video

@larryborkstrom3580 2 года назад

Buy what you want I've had good and bad in all brands with dealers I wish Hamilton the best in his new adventurers

@kenthelawnguy 2 года назад

Hamilton was an awesome guy on and off the truck, he will be missed. The Snap on guy at the meet was actually pretty awesome as well and I appreciated him taking the time to come and give some great deals... And a big big thank you to you and your beautiful wife for all you guys must go through to have an awesome meet every year!!!

@claytonscheiber3493 2 года назад

We called Cornwell, never answered, never returned the call, never showed up. It's pretty common knowledge in my area, the SnapOn dealer isn't the best if your not totally ready to get on, get what you want, get off. I happened to flag down Matco. He came back the next week like he said he would. Been here every week since, unless he has other plans that he let's us know of, ahead of time. Josh James is an awesome dealer. We are very fortunate. The manager ordered a roll cart. It came in this week. In the excitement of seeing it, unloading it, loading it in his pick up, he forgot the keys. Josh got the call, hey, we forgot the keys. Josh got in his personal vehicle, brought the keys by, same day. He doesn't pull the whole, salesman thing on us. He answers our questions, gets what we ask for, as quick as he can. As you've said over and over, and Saud again in this video. The tools are only as good as the person selling them.

@mikehuff2173 2 года назад

Thanks for letting us know what’s going on Clay. Hamilton will be greatly missed!! I really hope you get him in some future videos! I’m really glad you didn’t have a falling out, because you guys seem like such good friends that would of be terrible! You can never blame a guy for bettering himself/family. Wish the best of luck to you Mr. Hamilton!!

@RigobertoTejeda 2 года назад

Loved Hamilton!! Gonna miss him!! Have him on sometime. Salute, from a Mexican all the way from Compton, California! 🇺🇸 🇲🇽

@marcelcovaci9922 Год назад

I’m glad Hamilton is alright. I think the tool companies are pushing the tool truck vendors to buy more tools that they can sell.

@desertdispatch Год назад

These videos will be absolutely missed. Love watching you and these guys chit chat and go back snd forth. I loved watching these tool truck videos. Do what you can, I look forward to seeing what the future brings on this channel.

@mikenonameneeded3485 2 года назад

Hamilton was definitely entertaining! Maybe he could start a RU-vid channel about flipping houses. I would watch it. Some of the catch phrases he uses if hillarious.

@mechanicmike1236 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing that Clay, I was 99% sure you didn’t have a fallout with Hamilton, was a little concerned something happened health wise, just didn’t think it was appropriate to ask. Thanks again Clay, take care and God bless

@53af00d 2 года назад

You're not wrong about online tool purchasing. I'm a second year apprentice in Australia and I reckon I've bought about 75% of my tools online. We got one truck that shows up on a Thursday (snap on), but if you guys think snap on is expensive in USD you should see the prices in AUD lol

@nevillepretorius8948 2 года назад

Thanx for the video Clay. Really missing Snap On Friday. Being i South Africa those videos would be available to us on Saterday mornings. So for 4 years thats how my Saterday started, coffee, breakfast and Snap On Friday. Hamilton became part of our lives, and I really do miss him. All the best in his new business ventures.

@garywolff5812 2 года назад

Clay , I am glade to hear that everyone is busy. Many times things are so Mobil now a days . All the large tool companies are doing well in areas that the dealer puts in 100% .

@alexshackleford1065 2 года назад

Hamilton will definitely be missed, I wish him all the best for the future. If I wasn't in the mood to listen to music, I used to have the Snap On Friday or Matco Monday videos on in the background while working in the garage.

@pudermcgavin4462 2 года назад

And you have all the best tool guys, I have Cornwell and snapon that's it. I have a matco box and need slides but not paying up front to repair it so dealing it with 20yrs now!

@paulmendenhall5226 2 года назад

The videos are going to be missed but by some of your videos i have found some new tools and you showed a video in nc on a awesome tool truck witch led me to reaching out to him and now he is my tool dealer and a real grate one that takes care of his customers and he has a awesome truck i have seen a lot of good people come and go frum your videos but i guess it's just part of the journey keep up the good work

@jon.steele 2 года назад

The end of an era, but all good everybody’s ok and so on with the future :) I’ll sure miss the Snap-on Friday banter between you two

@tannerdamico9895 Год назад

I hear they trying to get 1 going on up there keep your fingers crossed.

@U_ever 2 года назад

Well that was certainly something special. Sorry you felt compelled to have to share so much of your personal business with your audience but that's the kind of thing that sets you apart from the pack. And finally a very large thanks for turning me onto JDTCO, VIM, KNIPEX, LANG, LYSLE, EZRED TEKTON, and all the rest of the really cool tool folks you hang out with. Wishing you calm winds and fair seas on all of your travels where ever they may take you.

@craigjorgensen4637 2 года назад

@notme6071 2 года назад

Glad to hear everything is going well for you.

@profosist 2 года назад

Appreciate the followup video. DOnt remember when I started watching but the truck videos are always fun. I like your view as a mechanic, being in a different industry myself. An idea for videos: Show us things that you do or use on a regular basis that you couldnt do without. I use the tub o towels for everything and how you keep your tools clean was great info.

@kevinkp7779 2 года назад

Wish you all the best Hamilton. Thanks for another great video Clay.

@toddw.9845 2 года назад

You are right on point, Clay they're good dealers and one's that suck , it's just the way it is.

@MarkWilliams-vp7xw 2 года назад

I think Hamilton should be a special guest on future videos, gonna miss Hamiltons contagious laugh

@NickJones31600 2 года назад

Totally agree with buying from the dealer and not just focusing on the brand. My Snap On guy has been swapping stuff out for my dad and he hasnt bought Snap On tools in over 15 years and my dad bought them from the old dealer in my area. I wish Hamilton all the best

@johnking676 2 года назад

@arenaissanceishman6689 Год назад

@virtisconsole12 2 года назад

Hey Clay .. yes I too will miss your and Hamilton banter, he’s a great guy, seemed that he would do whatever it took to keep good customer relationships.. that’s such a great thing for a tool guy.. hopefully he will stop by sometime, not sure where he’s residing? But keep up with Team Matco , Michael and wife (still don’t know her name) I like your interviews with them.. all good stuff.

@joshmiller8663 2 года назад

Matco Michael is my favorite tool truck.

@mantequillas1278 2 года назад

Our snap-on dealer finally went under and just this Thursday our new one came after like a month of MIA from our previous dealer. The old one had bad credit with snap-on and would take a long time to get anything ordered and even getting warranty work done. I just ordered the tools I asked for from the previous dealer and got some warranty stuff done after about 4 months of "I can't order it yet". Hope you get another great dealer on your route, snap-on should know how big of an influence you are for their brand or tool brands in general.

@christianzinn7636 2 года назад

I too miss Hamilton. I really looked forward to seeing him weekly. I do wish him all the best. I'm glad there is No Drama as I don't like it at all. Micheal & his wife are very nice people. You do an outstanding job as well. I sure hope things turn around for you, real soon. GOD BLESS

@Pete_da_Greek 2 года назад

I have definitely seen the fall off in mobile tool trucks over the past decade. I went from having 4 different trucks stopping by my shop,Matco driver went out of business ( had 3 drivers in 7 years) so now im down to just snap-on. I'm in a big city too (Philadelphia)

@harlemd6101 2 года назад

Sadly, I think we will be losing our snap on dealer very soon also. A lot of what you alluded to about Corporate shoving unwanted tools down the franchisee’s throat and not giving them the support behind the scenes when it comes to repos, unwanted tool promo packs, and rebates. Clay I think you’re right as far as the tool business evolving away from the weekly truck visits, especially with fuel prices and inflation.

@rjsenn4142 2 года назад

It’s got to be tough to be a tool truck owner these days- Fuel off the charts, inflation, (let’s go Brandon), forced to sell product you didn’t order, and trying to collect off deadbeats…my hats off to those guys/gals able to make it work!

@jamescaron6465 2 года назад

Oh man the fuel costs have to be brutal. Those trucks don’t run on pixie dust

@doctordiesel5467 2 года назад

Alot.of dealers are rotating every other week with taking the truck out basically 2 days a week they go out with their personal vehicle and rotate between stops so one week you get truck next week its just him and he brings your orders so on

@747rotate 2 года назад

I knew something was up with Hamilton and your segments on Fridays. Didn't know if he retired was sick or something else. I've known two Snap on dealers that quit because it was a pain in the ass dealing with customers and the company. I'm seeing fewer and fewer Snap on dealers all the time. They're in a world of hurt right now getting new dealers. With all of these tool companies making some quality tools often times better and much cheaper than Snap on it's getting harder for companies like Snap on to compete with them. Nowadays with online ordering it's just more practical to get a tool vs waiting on your tool guy to show up. Gonna miss Hamilton and your Snap on Fridays. I liked the guy so much and you guys were such a great team. One thing I've learned in life is the older I get the less I like change but so be it.

@jefferyrapp8357 2 года назад

Thank you for all the information and I wish Hamilton all best in his new endeavors he is an awesome guy I did get to talk to him a couple of times on the phone and he was always a good guy to talk to about tools

@chrisp174 2 года назад

You gotta give your business to the dealer that shows up, shows respect, and shows a want to take care of you. The customer also needs to show a willingness to part with some money if they want said dealer to keep coming by. My shop lost a Snap-On dealer, when they found a new guy to take over the route he would stop by then stopped, turns out he considered the guys in my shop lookers, not buyers. We now only have Cornwell and Mac Tools.

@demonicwolf69 2 года назад

hamilton was cool cat man, thats rough glad no drama that sucks i just got some snappy tools (for the life of me i cant get another guy tool truck out too my shop) best of luck to the guy.

@mikej5959 2 года назад

This is my problem with the tool trucks is how the parent company treats the dealers. Who are the their customers. Its kind of like being in between a rock and a hard place. Average Dealer in my area lasts 2-6 years.

@tallbrian100 2 года назад

I looked into a tool truck franchise, did a ride along with a local Mac truck. I took a pass, by the time they loan you 100,000 for the truck and the inventory at 15.99 % you are in the hole for $1400 a month just interest payment. The guy I rode along with sold only one item that day and all he was doing burning fuel doing weekly collections on truck accounts.

Hate to see Hamilton gone, I’m in Southwest MS and have a jam up Snap On dealer, Matco guy stopped by last week and gave me a slamming deal on a new Roll cart and 1/2 digital torque wrench. First time dealing with him but I hope he turns out to be just as good 👍🏼

believe me dont ever give away or sell tools their is no benefit

@sawgrassbrothers 2 года назад

First truck shop I worked at the snap on dealer made fun of my harbor freight ratchets and called them junk and was always trying to sell me a box and It made me never wanna buy a snap on tool then the next shop I worked for had a different dealer and they were absolutely awesome not a hard sale very friendly and they complimented my Matco box I had at the time. Now I have a snap on epiq off their truck and some good tools cause they were just friendly and not pushing product

@KoonTrucking 2 года назад

Sorry to disappoint you …. But life goes on

@gunner9174 2 года назад

Can we get an toolbox tour? Maybe it can take the place of snapon Friday videos or your box, then cart, then other's boxes... Etc. Those custom tools for that very specific bolt and what not. Would be cool to see the differences in brands that people love and they're go to ratchets and their reasoning. Especially with come to power tools.

@justforkiks29 2 года назад

Maybe a video talking to the tool truck guys discussing how to approach the tool trucks. I've seen a lot of posts about how to buy tool truck tools without a dealer. I am a mobile mechanic and I don't have a shop they can stop by to sell me tools, so I had to figure out how to get setup with them. I personally saw the matco truck on the freeway, took a picture of his number and called him later on. I saw the snap on truck at a shop near my house as I was driving and stopped to talk to him and got his number, he is now my snap on dealer. I reached out to mac thru Facebook and they gave me contact info for a couple of dealers in my area. I don't think a lot of poeple know that you can approach the tool truck or how to do it.

@andrewkarppinen4348 2 года назад

I had been wondering what happened to Mac vids. I knew about Hamilton from other vids. From what i gathered from what you said he was only a Snap-on dealer for four or 5 years?

@andybrooks4070 2 года назад

Our snap on and matco dealer at the shop im at go out of there route to come to our shop, Im not sure why our snap on guy does but I know our matco guy used to work at our partner shop (if thats even a thing, same company but two different types of equipment, separate shops ect.) and they got him to come our way, we have a mac guy but he for some reason doesnt come to our side of the area. thankfully matco and snap on make up for that for being top notch dealers
