The Burning Question: Black Milwaukee Packout in the USA - Myth or Reality?
Ah, the elusive black Milwaukee Packout. A topic that's sparked more online debates than a comment section under a cat video. For those of you rocking the classic red Packout setup and feeling a tinge of sartorial envy, fret no more! We're here to unveil the truth behind the black Packout in the USA.
A Brief History of Black Packout FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out)
Remember the days when the only color option for Packout was a fire engine red that practically screamed, "Hey thieves, come steal my expensive tools!"? Well, across the pond in Europe, our tool-loving brethren enjoyed a sleek black Packout option. This naturally caused a wave of jealousy amongst US Packout enthusiasts. We all dreamt of a toolbox that looked less like a danger cone and more like a tactical gear crate for the modern handyman.
The Black Packout Dawns (Kind Of)
Hold onto your hard hats, folks! There is a glimmer of black in this red-dominated world. In late 2023, Milwaukee finally tossed us a bone (or should we say, a black tumbler?) by releasing two black Milwaukee Packout tumblers. Yes, you read that right. Tumblers. Not exactly the toolbox upgrade we were all hoping for, but hey, it's a start, right?
This does beg the question: Will Milwaukee ever release a full line of black Packout options? Only time will tell. But fear not, dear reader, for we have some tips to quench your black Packout thirst (until Milwaukee decides to get with the program).
DIY Black Packout Hacks (At Your Own Risk)
Look, we wouldn't recommend going full-on rogue with a can of spray paint. But, for the truly adventurous, there are some online tutorials for customizing your regular Packout with a black paint job. Just remember, with great customization comes great responsibility (and the potential for a patchy, uneven mess).
Pro Tip: If you do decide to unleash your inner artist, make sure you use a high-quality paint specifically designed for plastic.
When Will We See True Black Packout Glory?
Unfortunately, Milwaukee hasn't given any official word on a full black Packout rollout in the USA. However, the release of the black tumblers suggests they might be testing the waters. So, keep an eye out on their website and social media for any updates. In the meantime, you can always channel your inner conspiracy theorist and come up with your own wild theories about the black Packout's delay.
We, here at Unofficial Packout Fanatics Club (UPFC), like to believe it's a top-secret project involving jet fuel-powered tools and a hidden compartment for emergency snacks.
