I could use something like the cordless Snap-on cordless heavy use impacts without the price. It would be nice to no longer depend on the air compressor.
what say ye, brain trust? How do the Ryobis and Milwaukees stack up under heavy use?

You can't touch the quality of Snap-on or Mac cordless impacts w store brands but no way in hell I'm paying for them new. I've bought a couple used w mixed results, the condition of the batteries is always maker or breaker of whether you get a deal. Plus, how beat-up the tool is from using in a shop, of course.
I bought a really nice used Snap-on 3/8" cordless impact w two good batteries and a charger for $150 last summer in Wisconsin. The battery life is fantastic on both and the tool feels like $600 in your hand, because it was when new.
