But it looks like people are actually avoiding Ryobi at the (IMHO)
decent prices and paying 2-3x for a Dewalt. Personally I don't
understand the Dewalt craze.

I can't remember where I saw the reviews but most people who are serious
about their tools would rather pay extra for metal gears intead of plastic
gears in their cordless drills. I think that principal applies across the
board. The Dewalt, PC, etc. are actually cheaper in the long run, IMHO.
