Man I hate waiting on new tools to arrive. I order through Amazon and thought I was using my Amazon prime 2 day shipping. But apparently I wasn’t paying attention and order through cpo instead. And to top it off it was a couple of days before the holiday. It finally shipped on the 7th and won’t be here until the 10 th. Oh I order dewalts new high torque impact wrench that Dan and Eric reviewed. I didn’t think I had a use for 1, so I came up with one. It sure will make changing my brakes easier. As soon as I get this bad boy I will post some pics. I chose to go for bare tools as already have a bunch of chargers and batteries hangin around. I wish they had kits with just batteries, I don’t need any more chargers.

LOL! It sometimes takes a little creative thinking to come up with a reason to justify a purchase.

That’s a cool looking impact wrench. You’ll have to let us know how you like it.

I feel your pain though. It always seems like it takes forever. It reminds me of being in school waiting on the 3pm bell.

yeah waiting on some new tools sucks. i hate that feeling too.

some companies it just takes for ever to process the order.

for example i ordered something from lowes on the 06/29 and it shipped out yesterday – thats a total of 8 days for processing!

It’s like Tom Petty said “the waiting is the hardest part”

The dewalt looks good.

I run both the fuel 3/8 an 1/2 impact. If I wasn’t married to the m18 line i would of gave the new dewalt impact a consideration.
