New tool for Christmas!
Since I used all of my Christmas bonus to buy my wife, son and other family gifts, I figured why not spoil myself a little bit.
I have a Milwaukee 1/2" cordless impact that is rated at 450 ft/lbs. I haven't found a bolt that it couldn't break lose yet. In fact, it snapped in half one of the bolts that secure the tow hooks that was rusted on!
Not being satisfied with an already excellent tool, I decided to upgrade.
I bought this!
This is the brushless "fuel" Milwaukee impact. This bad boy is rated at 1100 ft/lbs!
Cannot wait to blast off some more rusty bolts in the near future!

In the new year buy yourself the 3/8" Fuel impact. Rated up to 210ft/lbs. Great impact as well.
Got a Milwaukee tool box to replace my 20 year old Craftsman. The girlfriend asked my brother in November about getting me a Snap On tool box until she saw the prices so she settled on this:

Yeah I have a bunch of Milwaukee stuff so that's why I went with another impact from them.
I actually have a Bosch 1/2" compact impact too. It has the wireless charging and will also accept a hex bit in the same 1/2" chuck. I use it all the time, in fact, way more than the big impact.
I'll make a video of me blasting off some 83 ft/lb torqued lug nuts with this new impact soon and post it on here. My old one worked fine too but it would take about 2-3 seconds for them to finally break loose.
I've read you have to be careful using this 1100 ft/lb monster because it likes to snap bolts really quick!

Milwaukee Fuel with 210ft-lbs???? That's cute.
Metabo, smaller size...305ft lbs with this battery.
Not being a douche, just showing off. This thing is very compact compared to its competitors.
Also, just noticed that the Milwaukee was 3/8".

I bought myself an early Christmas present. I've been acquiring so many new tools that I needed a second toolbox to hold everything and be a little more organized. I got this one at Harbor Freight. Nice box for $200:

So useful! I got a set of Gearwrench from Sears. An absolute when changing rear shocks on my wife's LC.
