is it really worth it

[jdh123]

i have a delima i currently have the makita 18v lxt tool set. i want to get a 1/2" impact gun for removing lug nuts, suspension parts and anything else a impact of this size is good for, but i dont know if i should stick w/ the makita platform or splurge for the snap-on ct4850ho. i dont know how the makita performs w/ its 325 ft lb rating, but i do know one of the mechanics at work has the snap-on and he said it is awesome for working on equiptment. He came from a milwalkee w/ 325 ftlb and said there was no comparison. what should i do

Buy the 4850ho you definatley won't be disappointed! When I was looking to buy a cordless impact my S-K tool Truck driver had Milwaukee and Makita and they didn't even come close to the 4850ho! I also tried Mac and Matco and neither compared to Snap On, there pricey but at far as cordless impacts go they can't be beat!
