If you haven't bought a cordless impact yet, here is a Black Friday deal to jump on! Best price I've ever seen on this. Love mine!

I think mine is about 3 years old. Never had a lug nut I couldn't remove with it, but they are all lug nuts that I had properly torqued in the first place. (Couldn't say that about either my HF or Good Year branded wrenches.) The lithium battery holds a charge well. If I know I'm changing out wheels I'll charge it ahead of time, but I've used it after sitting with no issues.

OT: Cordless Dremel tool. Got one of these for early XMAS gift. Way, way easier to use (esp in tight spots) --- than the original corded model.

Part of why I like the Ryobi is the wide variety of household tools available that share the battery. I have the hedge trimmer, pole saw, air compressor and an LED work light. They all work well.

I also recommend the CPO website for Milwaukee products.
EDIT
It looks like CPO is having a Milwaukee sale.

Nice review. He mentions not spinning lug nuts on with the wrench, but I find on the low speed, the trigger is responsive enough that I can spin them on, stopping just as it starts to hammer without coming close to over torquing the nuts. I then finish them up with the torque wrench.
He mentions lag bolts. I forgot that I had used mine for that in the past. I've run 6" lags into pressure treated wood easily.

Bill,
I understand the thrill of the chase but just go buy the Milwaukee.
You can set custom speed/torque profiles with your phone over Bluetooth.
Come over you can try out mine.

Harbor Freight is my friend; you can't take it with you and it not like you are a professional who will use it daily.
