I need a new tool box to bring to the races. The old Sears plastic toolbox is on it's last legs.
What do you guys use / recommend?
Plastic v. Metal?
Drawers v. Trays?
How big is too big? How small is too small?

I use a plastic cheapie in my truck with cheapy tools. I have enough tools to change flats, change cables, mess with jetting (2-stroke) and do basic patch ups to keep riding. I go cheap just because I know I'll loan something out and not get it back or if I actually had something stolen, it wouldn't kill me in the wallet to replace anything. My trailer has a little nicer stainless 3 drawer but it stays in there with a little nicer stuff.

I had a tool bag for years that worked great. It was small about 14in long but was tough and you didn't have to worry about denting it or breaking the plastic. The added bonus was that the sides inside and out are sewn with all kinds of small compartments to store your tools

I have a three drawer Craftsman carrying box. I prefer the metal because I keep it in the back of the truck. I agree with everyone else, nothing nice in it, just stuff that will get the job done!
