Anyone familiar with the Great Neck brand of tools they sell at Autozone?

They have a torque wrench for only $11, is it possible to get a halfway decent one for only 11 bucks or will it be a POS?

For $11 who cares if it's decent. If it's even close to accurate it will due for Jeep work. Click Type would be better than pionter type. I would expect to pay over $50++ for any real quality. At $11 have to break 5-6 to make up the cost difference.

Always buy good tools... I have tools my Dad's Father gave him that still work. I feel his spirit everytime I pick those tools up.... I think I do better work when I use them because that's what my Granfather and Dad would expect.
If you have a Son imagine the joy he will get out of using a good quality tool that he inherited when his Dad goes to a different place!
