thats my favorite tool in my box.... i also own there biggest, non-hammer 18v drill, there 18v jigsaw, and there 18v shoplight.
the shoplight i'm unimpressed with, 50 bucks, comes with no battery or charger, and it eats batteries SOOOO fast. they shoulda went with LED's the jigsaw is amazing, i cut 1/4 inch steel plate with it on a regular basis. i love my dewalt 18v cordless stuff.
i know at over 300 dollars the impact seems expencive, but for being cordless, and the power it has.. its still a great deal. it knocks axel nuts off without hesitation, its incredible at the junkyard.

lol i feel you
i have a set of craftman wrenches like those that ARENT ratcheting, they really dont do much on rounded off bolts, but they do work on damn near everything else, the set was 20 bucks, and i really bought them just because the open end was so beefy
