And every person I've ever talked to says the same thing --- "I wish I'd have bought a better compressor"....

This is right next to the statement ---- I wish I'd have bought a decent lift years ago.


TWO tools that are used far far more than you can ever imagine.... and ones that aren't "replaced" often if bought correctly.

They'll outlive the expensive wheels a guy buys that are out of style before the build gets done.... LOL
