Some people strip them, and rant about how bad torx are because they use T25. Torq have a lot of surface area.

I buy the lesie sets because they got t27, and American made. All black, so I sprayed my T27 with paint.

I have a set of torx screw drivers, as well as the torx sockets, including the T27. I use the screwdrivers to start them and quickly spin the screws in our out, and the socket to break them loose or torque them. I Don't get all the fuss over these screws, I have yet to ruin one after 5 primary oil changes.

My Craftsman T27 bits keep getting twisted or broke. I've gone through about 4 f them in 2 years. The little teeth twist and bend and before you know it the bit breaks.
