The following lists will change as industry needs evolve. As of 2025, this serves as a valid outline of tool responsibilities. Please review the comments section for details that explain how each tool is defined or when it should be used.
All tools provided by the company for van inventory are issued based on both need and the technician’s ability to use them. This list isn’t meant to include every tool available in the shop’s tool crib. Its purpose is to show which tools are considered the company’s responsibility and which belong to service van or shop technicians.
This is only an example list. Each dealership will have a similar version with slight differences. Still, it offers a useful starting point for understanding what you’ll need to bring as a technician, and what the dealership may supply if you’re qualified to use certain tools. For instance, if you don’t know how to weld, you won’t be assigned a welder.

The following lists will be changed, as industry needs change. As of March 23
rd
2015 this is
considered a valid outline of tool responsibility. Please pay attention to the comment field for
important information that furthers defines the tool, or its circumstances.
All tools supplied by the company to van inventory will be supplied based on need, and the ability
to use the tool in question. The list is not intended to be a list of all tools available in the shop tool
crib, but rather to delineate between what is and is not viewed as corporate responsibility for
service van and shop technician tools.

All basic hand tools are the technician’s responsibility to supply. Industry changes may necessitate
additions to these requirements.
There are tools not listed, which they may want to consider. These tools may make the technician’s job
