Which tool would you buy?



For my cv bolts I bought the one that fits in a socket it stripped after using it a couple times. After that I bought the snap on kind it has lasted me and my friends way way longer then the first one that I bought. Im still using it now with no problems. I am talking about a different application but I do believe that the Socket Driver is stronger and will last you long then the Socket-head screw.
