You've been missing out.

At first blush it does seem stupid to use an impact driver in a wood screw, but they just don't strip or cam out.

They're the same size as drills now.

The Milwaukee is smaller and lighter than the drill, even. It's amazing. And it has adjustable torque, which means you can use it for drywall even without punching through the paper.

And putting in metal roofing or walls without hammering the rubber washer on the roofing screw is amazing. You don't even have to think. Set it to torque setting 1 and forget about it.
