I still shutter at the thought of spending $300 on a cordless one. So, why doesn’t anyone make a _corded_ electric impact driver. I still shutter at the thought of spending $300 on a cordless one.

These can really speed up a project. Keep in mind a small air gun oiling sometimes becomes even more important. Oil often with such higher RPM tools These are very useful…..when taking apart a large complicated project (read car ect) you need not only power but speed. These can really speed up a project.

No thanks. Matco may as well be "Harbor Freight" in a truck...except at Harbor Freight I expect to use it once and throw it away, and pay accordingly. Additionally, HF will keep their books straight, not go out of business and hand my credit over to the next sucker, I mean tool man to buy a truck, Now all you need is the good luck to find an honest Matco dealer who will sell you one…then find him again for service…then find him again after he mails it off to be repaired…then three months later start over again, only to have him push his latest model at you because the one yo originally paid an inflated price for has been discontinued.
