Thread: Just a FYI

Bought 2 of these about 8 yrs ago, first one went out this morning, 169 bucks plus tax, hard to swap after getting that kind of service!

Those are top notch drills.

Hope the new is as good as the old one, those old ones you have are some work horses!!

Thats good stuff Sammy.....I am a DeWalt man myself....always got good service out of them. I have a Makita corded recipicateing saw and a circular saw. Everything else is pretty much DeWalt except for my table saw which is a Riged and my joiner which is a Craftsman.

I still use Dewalt because I have 6 different things that run of the 18v batt. Them things Sammie has are about half the weight of a 18v XRP Dewalt, like them just as well and that weight adds up by the end of the day.

Bwahaha lol lol:D

Yep.....good thing is.....when I get tired of holding mine I can just lay it down and walk away

Great drills. I had a friend that rebuilt tools from pavement breakers to torque wrenches for tuning pianos. He rebuilt my old Makita 9.6v years ago and it was still running up until the charger went out!Been using a Porter Cable since then but it should last forever as little use as it gets!Like losing an old friend!
