$40/year in batteries?

At a 30 year career, that's $1260 in batteries (included a 5% state tax)

So, your drill will cost you $1460 and mine will cost $200. PLUS I WILL
STILL HAVE A WARRANTY ON THE WHOLE DRILL!

HAHAHAHHAHA


Then in that case, my drill was free, as todays income was more than that...


You forget that its winter, and we own a heating and air company.

BTW, the state tax here is either 7 3/4 or 8 percent, depending on the
county you are in...I dont sweat the little things like that...lets not get
in a ****ing match over the freaking cost of drills for Gods sake...I dont
even worry about gas prices..who in hell will worry about a part that you
know from day one will need replacement at some time?
BTW...an 18V Ridgid is closer to $290...looked today at the Borg.

Here here, I totally agree. With my expierience in the past with these
2
company's, I wouldn't care if they offered a 30 day warranty, I would
rather buy those instead of any other brand. I've had a few, and never
been dissapointed with any Milwaukee tools and haven't had one fail due
to
factory defect yet or to working it to hard. Being American made is
just
a
bonus.
I also think that buying a $20 battery twice a year I can justify,
considering how much money those tools make me on the job.

Also, CBhvac, I seen you said something about a jobsite without power,
and
you wouldn't wanna be stuck. Look into Milwaukee's Cigg Lighter
chargers,
well worth the money on the jobsite.

Just my .02

stands out to me..Milwaukee and Bosch have proven
themselves..Bosch
will
next day air you a new drill if yours fails, and also send a
pre-paid
return
box for the broken one.
