I tried the corded HF impact gun...returned it, would not loosen my 90 ft-lb lug nuts.

I tried the craftsman corded version. Essentially the same exact thing at twice the price. Returned it.

Now I spent about $300 for a dewalt 18v 3/4" unit. The thing is gigantic and heavy. Amazingly, it also will not loosen my freaking lug nuts, which I can undo easily by hand with my lug nut wrench. WTF?

I want an impact gun but I don't have space for a 60 gallon compressor. What's the best cordless impact gun? I know there's good ones out there because the NASCAR guys use them.

I've used 5 different brands, including; Bosch, dewalt, Makita, Hitachi, and a no name unit.

It's no contest. Bosch, period.
