Which tools would you guys recommend?
OK, since I'm setting up here and trying to get all the tools I need, I thought I'd see what you guys would recommend. Here's what I've got:
About every socket needed
About every screwdriver needed
About every pliers and adjustable wrench needed
Lots of crowbars and prybars
Several drills (still need a cordless one)
DA sander
HVLP sprayer
Impart wrench
Air ratchet
Grinder, angle grinder, and cutoff tool
Sawzall
Chop saw
Rotisserie
Lots of jackstands and a good jack
Powdercoating setup with oven
MIG welder (coming soon)
Lots of drop lights and things
And probably some other stuff I can't think of. What tools do you guys think I should get my hands on?

You may be a ways off from needing this, but how about:
heat gun
wire splicer / crimper
butt connectors
solder
soldering gun
heat shrink
test light
wire loom
