Torch is always useful, everything else is in my toolbox. No point carrying a bunch of tools in my pockets when I'm getting in and out of cars all day and working at awkward angles.

I know the pain of working at awkward angles but it's a good idea to keep some essentials on you at all times. Like a flashlight and a multi-tool

Screwdriver. With phones, there's no need for carrying around a flashlight. Besides even if this were before smart phones, the chances of actually NEEDING to use a flashlight for something was slim. If I had a problem, i'd just wait till the next morning.

Screwdriver, have the same one as OP pic, but without a magnet, rather unfortunate, would have liked a small magnet on the end.

Neither, my pocket fleshlight is most important.

Flashlight by far. I don't even carry a pocket screwdriver. My breast pockets typically consists of a paint marker, pen, flashlight, and my phone.

OP here

Smartphones are nice until you run into something where you need 2 hands and a light and drag lights won't help you

I'm probably a dumbass but I buy Snap-On. This screwdriver was like 12 bucks, but for a lifetime warranty and almost unlimited durability it's worth it IMO

If I went to a shop and saw someone with a multi-tool I would immediately turn 360° and walk out of there.

Hey man, I only had the multi tool because I would be too lazy to grab pliers to pull fuses out

Don't judge me

I just have a toolbox. I hate having stuff in my pockets when I'm working on cars.

>forget you have tool in pocket
>hop in leather drivers seat to check some thing real quick
N-no sir! That hole was definitely there when we got the car we ain't paying for shit.

>not using a shirt pocket

The screwdriver, but these days I use a plastic trim tool even more than that

Since I work at Subaru I carry a variety of things on me. In my left pocket I carry
>pen
>snap on pocket driver with schrader valve remover on the other end
>mac tools pocket driver with magnet on other end
>matco schrader valve removal tool
>blue point 3lb pickup magnet
On my left hip I have a flashlight light holster which I carry my
>250 lumen stream light strion mini
Right next to that clipped to the outside strap is my
>husky 60 lumen pen light
I get made fun of for all the shit in my pocket and my 2 lights but I'm literally prepared for anything.

I thought this way until the first time I got stranded on the side of the road at night.
