I have owned Snap-on, Thorsen, Wright and few others...all high quality drop forged tools. I now own Craftsman and find the quality equal to Snap-on. Stanley makes an average quality and now they are made in China. Craftsman comes with a life time replacement and as to date I have only replaced 1 box end wrench that had to be better than 20 years old. The reason for the Craftsman is that it is a complete master set with Metric and SAE wrenches. I still have CDI, Snap-on and Craftsman Torque Wrenches. And, by the way, my dad was a Mechanic/Machinist and these where his tools that I inherited.

You can use a universal oil filter tool on the filter. It is really not that tight. You will need the Torx set...be sure to get the small and larger set...there about $16-18 bucks each.
