    On cordless stuff, DeWalt 20V.

    For corded stuff, Harbor Freight if I'm being totally honest.

    I was reading on the Milwaukee site that FUEL tools are the top line brushless but there are brushless tools that are not FUEL.

    You want FUEL. Maybe they’ve made other brushless, but FUEL is what you want. With Milwaukee anyway.

    Makita also offers brushless tools. I bring this up because I've been using Makita since the 9.6v days, always being satisfied. The selection is enormous, so you can get exactly what you need. For example, there are 20 18V impact wrenches, 5 are brushless.
