Re: New Tools

.

My (now ex) FIL got me something similar about 6 years ago. Very useful tools and they last in my experience.

Nice!

It didn’t cost Me Anything. The Dewalt Rep set him up
If you had to buy it with all the extra batteries and there’s a 1/2 “ impact coming
Probably close to $1000. Just a guess

Thumbs up Re: New Tools

very nice Steve, all my battery powered tools are dewalt. the guys at work all use Milwaukee. i used to take my dewalt sawzall and impact when going to pick-n-pull along with extra batteries- found a set of factory tow hooks on an old early 60s GMC one ton and the bolts were seized so i sawed off the frame horns to get the hooks.

Re: New Tools

Didn't get the killer deal that the OP got but Fleet Farm had a special before Christmas so I upgraded my old (15 years?) Dewalt stuff to the new 20 volt stuff. Saved over $200 on a drill driver and 3/8" impact.
