Impact Driver Recommendation
Folks,
I'm getting old and just don't have the stamina of youth anymore, so the idea of manually dealing with nuts/bolts and screws is not appealing, not to mention time consuming. So, I am considering getting an Impact Driver, for use on the car and in general.... I'd be grateful for any recommendations on suitable makes/models/specifications of said drivers which aren't going to severely dent my wallet. |

The draper one isn't bad. Had mine for years.

Got one of those. And that was also my first thought. Hmm. I prefer to call it experience. I can highly recommend the Milwaukee cordless. Don’t have one, have used one. Marvellous. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ah, we are talking about the electric type.
Dewalt - it's brilliant! Just don't touch your cambelt pulleys with it. FFX about £200 bare (no battery) |

Impact Driver Recommendation
Has to be Milwaukee if funds allow.
I have an M18 Fuel 1/2 with 5 amp battery and far superior to anything else I have used. Friend is even looking at getting one to replace his year old Snap On. I also have the Milwaukee 3/8 Stubby Impact and an M18 Drill and they are also very good. Mark Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I don't think you can beat an air impact driver if you have a compressor...ok it can be a bit fiddly switching on and hooking up the air hose but cheap to buy and maintain.
