Random funny story for you wrench monkeys. I used to be super into the hobby. Pulled motors, transmissions, rear ends, headers, etc to upgrade/rebuild.

Flash forward to now 10 years later, and I buy a bolt-on axle back for my q50. I think back to all those times in college I wish I had air tools, and knowing I already had the compressor, I bought an impact wrench and a bunch of sockets.

I get the car jacked up, compressor up to pressure, pull the trigger a few times like clicking tongs. Then, I realize the positioning of the exhaust bolts won't let the gun get in position, and I have to whip out the socket wrench and cheater bar.

Wait til you try a cordless impact and realize what a PITA air tools are

Ridgid 1/2" user here. 18V and gets used 3 -4 days a week. It's fantastic. The lifetime service and parts warranty including battery warranty did it for me.

I also have 1/4 and 3/8" Milwaukee electric ratchets. Makes life so much easier.

Going from hand tools to cordless is like going from a stick-shift to an automatic.

Used my Milwaukee cordless for a brake job. Started removing a caliper bolt and didn't pay attention to the clearance - ratchet got stuck and couldn't reverse it can't remember how I got the damn thing off but took awhile. My 16 year old son just laughed his ass off at my predicament
