some stuff from harbor freight is cool but no i have an impact wrench from there and dont like it. And all my tools have broken. Thank god for their lifetime warranty.

I think ima get a dewalt see alot of people use them even on TV i see them alot, that or the craftsman bolton. All the bolt on additions seem cool

Dewalt is solid

My dad is a contractor and he has been using Makita for about 20 years and swears by them.

Makita would also be a good option. Not saying they aren't

I have the Milwaukee brushless impact /hammer drill combo M18 fuel and I beat the snot out of it daily drilling through 1-4 2x4's with 1 a inch auger bit and it's just fine. Not a cheap price tag but well worth it. IMO the best you can buy.

Skip harbor freight drills if you do real men projects. If you want to be impressed get the 18v Rigid combo lithium ion. They will run circles around Harbor Freight. The drill will drive a screw deep into a 2x4 past the surface, almost like a countersink. They have great torque. Cheaper higher volt rated drills will quit because the motor is too weak. Rigids drill through wood and metal with ease. I've had Dewalt but still like the Rigid better. I got my Rigid set from Craigslist brand new. I have the impact, drill, 2 batteries, and am-fm radio with aux for $120. Milwaukee and Makita are great, but Rigid is all you need.
