Default Confusion of fasteners

It doesn't have to be a Brit vehicle to have confusing threads. I haven't done enough on the current truck to be sure, but if it's like the 1994 it has SAE on the Navistar engine and metric on anything Ford did for chassis and cab. And then we can discuss hex head bolts, 12 point bolts, Philips, Robertson, Pozidrive and other screws as well as internal hex, internal and external Torx, not to mention the security enhanced versions of some. I don't know if the toolmakers love it because they have more types of driver to sell or hate it because each does less volume......
