I still have a needle type in the toolbox of the truck but bought the click type from Walmart. It might not be as accurate as a high dollar one but for my purposes (lug nuts) it is fine.
Like HamRad and others, any time the lug nuts are loosened I use the torque wrench to tighten them. Then at each stop thereafter I check them with the torque wrench and continue to do that each stop until they no longer tighten before the click. To remind me to do this, I leave the black nut covers off until done with the tightening procedure.
