[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3334317, member: 26737"] I’ve had Makita, Ridgid, and Milwaukee. I couldn’t tell you if one is definitively better than the others, but I can tell you I wouldn’t want to try to live on the difference. About the only thing that tips it for me is the Milwaukee 1/2” drive impact guns that use the same batteries as their drills and smaller impacts. It’s hellaciously hard to beat the value on the Ridgid stuff, though. I picked up a drill and light set from Woot.com for cheap (well under $100, IIRC), then added a 1/4” impact driver from Home Depot for about the same price, so I ended up with three tools, three batteries, and two charges for less than the cost of the Milwaukee 1/2” driver bare tool. I couldn’t tell you anything about the customer service, though, as I’ve never had a cause to use it from any of them. [/QUOTE]
