i too use milwaukee tools. that and a makita. also a small panasonic driver for my rc tool box. 
for heavy duty work though you'll probably want a corded impact if going electric. |
Oh yea. I wouldn't be using the impact to do the whole process. I'd break and torque the lugs first with a ratchet. Hence the new torque wrench i ordered. The impact would just come in handy making the process quicker instead of making sure the car is heightened enough to allow a wrench to fully rotate.
My grandfather used Milwaukee and he swore by them. So it just seemed natural. Plus they look badarse.
