With the Father's Day sales going on it is time for me to buy a new
cordless drill. I want a drill driver but haven't kept up with the
differences between the major brands. I am not a professional
woodworker but with a farm there are plenty of times a cordless drill
comes in handy.

I would like some opinions on:

What brands to consider or reject

What type of battery

What voltage

Any replies would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for all the advice. I looked at number of tools and finally
bought a Porter Cable. Drill and battery carries a 3 year warranty.

The Ridig battery warranty sounded good but the drills locally were
hard to find. The few at the big box stores were very pricey.
