As a mechanic I will definitely attest to how great the cordless ratchets are. I have used the three majors snap on, Matco and Milwaukee. Of the three Milwaukee was the best of them all. My snap on initially was the best with the most torque however, over time that was lost as the battery died. Matco was and still is great but I can only use it for small jobs for the most part. My Milwaukee is average use so I still depend on my other two but for a residential mechanic. ( no offense guys) The warranty is better battery has an issue send it back they send you a brand new one. They do not question if you purchase the extended warranty either. Now as he states snapon better warranty is great the first year after that you just flushed $399 down the drain is it breaks. Not to mention they will give you the test of the ages to get it fixed under warranty if your within time. I would recommend the Milwaukee any day. They make great tools and they stand behind their product years down the road. However, do not buy the ones for harbor freight unless you truly only want it for small projects. I think I should make a video showing the differences in the tools.

Nice. The hood alignment with the fender looked different at the front with the new fender vs the old one. Looks like the fender is sticking out about 3/4" to the side at the front of the truck. It's weird.
