I need some help on deciding. I got a new job working on Freightliners and I need a cordless impact. I have narrowed it down to Snap On and Dewalt. Have any of you used both of these that can give me a comparison. I have used the dewalt and it is awesome. I have also used the snap on one but only a few times.

I have the dewalt one and only thing I dont like is the size. hard to fit it in some places. I think the snap on one is smaller and possibly has more torque.

I have the snap on model....love it. But when you buy the 3/8 impact, buy the Makita.

The SnapOn is the bomb for cordless. The Dewalt is ok in my book but not as much torque. My favorite SnapOn has an air hose.
