Stopped by the new auto parts store in Springfield and their tool rental policy is a real head-scratcher

They charge a $150 deposit for a basic scan tool, which feels like they don't trust pros in the trade. How does that help a mechanic in a pinch?

Our local place wanted a $200 deposit for a simple torque wrench last week.

Wait, a hundred and fifty bucks just for a scanner? That's wild. I thought milestaylor's torque wrench deposit was bad, but this is just punishing people for trying to do their job right. It's like they want you to just guess what the check engine light means instead.

Milestaylor, does that $200 deposit at least get you a nicer torque wrench than the cheap one I bought last year?
