WTF? Am I missing something? This is run of the mill garage floor
concrete, the direction say drill a damn hole and use a screwdriver to
sink it in? Should I try oil lubrication? My floor has several holes

Time to review the instructions. You are supposed to power drive them
with the suggested driver tool.
Hammer-drill/driver may help, too.
Me? I'd go w/ powder-actuated myself and toss the tapcon's in the "nice
theory, no good in practice" pile along w/ the various other things over
the years...
imo, ymmv, $0.02, etc., ...
If you're driving Tapcons with a hammer drill, that might be why you
haven't had much success with them. Try an impact driver.
