There's no such thing as overkill when it comes to tools 😎👍
Great kit honestly. I got one last year around Christmas time for 100. Might get lucky if you wait
With a full list of contents [thdstatic.com], this is missing a few, but a decent starter set. Yes, prices have risen, but this was $99 during Christmas sales of 2019.

Although the 1/4" and 3/8" drive are all 6 pt, I would have preferred they included same with the 12pt 1/2" drive. As well, no 4.5mm in either, you get the 5.5mm in 1/4" drive shallow, but not in the deep well. And then you get the 20, 21 and 22mm in 3/8" drive shallow, but not in the deep well. Etc. Personally, I like complete sets, but still a decent deal with a decent warranty for the tools ---but not the case with a 1 year warranty that is best left stationary.

Is this a good set for most car maintenance work? Overkill? I have a mechanics set but isn't as comprehensive as this. This looks really nice.

How does this compare to the Dewalt 192 Piece set that SD loves?

A more fair comparison for this would be the craftsmen one. No the dewalt set

Interesting. What set do you recommend that would be a complete set? Thank you!

It is wearing to investigate every set for what they have and do not have. Having bought many sets over the years, last year's Christmas deal for the 192pc DeWalt [dewalt.com] set for $89 delivered from Fleet Farm was about as complete of a set with all 6pt, that I have come across at a reasonable price. But, even it was missing a size or two.

12pt has their place the same as 6pt, but I prefer a set of each in both shallow and deep well, both metric and SAE that adds up with just the 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 inch drives for a total of 12 sets. Another option is to buy the individual Milwaukee sets with square sockets that don't roll across the floor, but they are not cheap.

If you don't have much of anything, this Husky set is fine as a starter set. Before Apex took over and exported to China, the made in the USA Husky were quality built sockets. Today, if you have a Home Depot or Tractor Supply close, the tool warranty is about as good as any.
