Since they need to be Fixed Or Repaired Daily, it only makes sense that they have their own line of tools included with every vehicle purchase. HA HA
They have some cool things but it doesn’t seem like you can buy anything off that website yet
They’ve been around a couple years, my son is a mechanic at the Ford dealer and the shop manager has drill in his office, my son says the looks and feels like Harbor Freight’s finest.

Yeah comp remember the Harbor Freight look alike tools we found before for their cordless line of tools, that was kinda disappointing, you suppose their air tools and etc are any better?
Why the pete are they still fooling around with NiCad?

I’m pretty sure it’s the cheapest Chinese made stuff they could find. It’s not like a BMW tool kit or the Nissan GTR (Snap On) tool kits.

I wouldn’t recommend that at all. I know Sears sells some of the hand tools. Definitely don’t buy the power tools, you probably won’t get support for them and they may or may not be any good. Though the stuff Stan posted looks decent, it reminds me of PC.
They look like garbage HF tools with different color and also still using nicad now that is a joke ??? nicad can’t compare to lithium . Also a tool that stands for found on road Dead ???

I agree with Brian, I wouldn’t recommend Ford Tools they may seem cool to have but the the price isn’t reasonable…. A well known Brand + Brushed Motor Doesn’t equal Good Quality Tools
I would rather choose Milwaukee 5 year tool warranty, Continues innovation, and Brushless motors:D

Those look to be Chevron OEM’ed. Only based on appearance.

Hence them buying Fords to begin with…at least they’re used to repairing or replacing things.
Well, I drive a Ford, so I guess I’ll buy all their tools, cause they’re FORD!!!!! They’ve got to be AWESOME!!!! I’m gonna get rid of all my Milwaukee stuff now!!!!!
