Who Needs a Toolbox
We go every year on a spring fishing week which is about an 8 hour drive from door to camp. We have to get in by ATV as it is a long ways off the pavement.
About an hour past the last house the truck broke down and I used my New Wave to implement some repairs on the power steering. It was at least enough to get us to the parking spot and back out to a garage the next day. I was very pleased with myself that I had been able to use the tool and save the day. We parked and used the wheeler to get the next 7 kms to the camp. The next morning we fired up the ATV to head back to the truck and as I turned it around in a clearcut, a branch went up through the bottom and took out the coolant hose. After a little foul language out came the Leatherman and we made repairs using the rubber off the chainsaw handgrip and some wire. It was a slow trip out but a lot shorter than if we had to walk. I have carried this tool everyday since and use it with great pride.
