Lug bolts, sockets and tools

In the trunk of my Audi's I carry a lug wrench called a Gorilla Bar, (father
of all monkey lads??). It's really a great device that has a stout 6 pt.
socket (reversable for two sizes) on a telescoping breaker bar handle that
extends to 24"+. The socket end is bent to 90deg so you don't need an
extension.  Collapsed it's about 15" over-all length and makes
breaking stubborn bolts effortless. I remember paying about $15.00 ea.
for them and have yet to meet a bolt that was able to resist. Not 
a cheesy tool and very compact for storage.
