I’m looking for suggestions on a good power drill that takes off lug nuts on a car?

Kristy P asked:


My boyfriend works on his car & mine as well. When he does the brakes it takes forever just due to taking off the lug nuts so…I wanted to get him a power drill that will make this easier. He kind of hinted & I want to get it for Valentine’s Day!

I know there is Home Depot or Lowe’s–Looking for an affordable power drill that takes lugnuts off easily HOPEFULLY under a $100.00–HELP!

      Lowes has a corded impact gun that will work but northern tool has a cordless impact gun that’s better.

      Not a “power drill” but rather a 1/2″ drive impact wrench. Get an electric one if he doesn’t have access to an air compressor. Check out this 250 ft.lb. electric model from Sears:

      Craftsman Professional 1/2 in. Impact Wrench

      Sears item #00927299000
      Mfr. model #27299
      $169.99
