Good joke!! I have a SEARS 1/2 drive torque wrench--for oh 18 years or so. I received a gorgeous SNAPON tool wrench as a work related award. The SNAPON clicks at the same point --at 60 and at 80 foot pounds were my test targets. Pretty neat, huh?
I have never seen SAAB techs ever go 100 plus ft.lbs. on the wheels--and I 've had 15 SAABs over 26 years and 1.26 million real SAAB miles --and never, ever had a wheel lug nut (old cars) or lug bolt loosen.
Just do not use antiseize on the lug bolts----or you could potentially face an undertorqued situation.
