Plus, while the Dewalt stuff is pretty nice, I wouldn't buy anything but the newer lithium ion powered stuff. I replaced my old nicad dewalt with a li-ion dewalt and the difference is *incredible*. Batteries lasts way longer, weighs much less, and don't slow down at the end of the charge... full torque then nothing... so you get more out of each battery. Plus, no memory effect.

My brother has 2 Snap On cordless impact guns, the big one is pretty handy on stuff like exhaust bolts.
