Swapped my 20 year old torque wrench for a digital one yesterday

I used to go by feel on lug nuts for my trailer, stripped two studs on I-80 near Omaha before I got smart. Picked up a cheap digital one at Harbor Freight for $45 and it beeps when I hit 95 ft-lbs, no more guessing. Anyone else stuck on old habits until something breaks?

Ha, "stuck on old habits until something breaks" is basically my life motto. I still tighten oil filters by hand and pray, so you're already ahead of me.
