+1 for Milwaukee tools, use them every day. But I must say my DeWalt 20v impact & drill is my best buy, I think I paid $139 for both with 2 batteries and charger. But as far as wrenching goes, nothing beats old school ratchets and sockets. Something about actually feeling a stubborn nut breaking loose with nothing but a wrench and man muscle.
IMHO, HF power tools have come a long way in the past 20 years, back then I wouldn't touch them, but today, especially with the warranty, you can't go wrong, until they do go wrong at the wrong time... which is why I have wrenches.
