I noticed that Menards has this impact driver kit on sale for $229.
Bosch 26618-01 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Impact Drill/Driver Kit

It's practically like getting 2 drills in one.

It comes with 2 batteries (overkill for me).

I have (and am selling) the 26614 kit. I went to the lithium for a
little bit lighter unit and the promised battery lifetime. The Bosch
doesn't show a bit of battery depletion in 4 years. I had a client
join me in building his deck and got to watch the Bosch keep right up
with the Makita 141 I replaced it with. I love both machines/kits.

Then there is the corded model: Makita 6952.

From what I understand, the only corded impact driver available.

Yeah, who wants a cord when you don't have to have one? These
Impactor thingies'll take LUG NUTS off, fer chrissake.
