Cordless Impact gun ?
Talking about the kind that would loosen and tighten lug nuts--looks like a cordless drill. Any body have one or use one? what do ya think about it. and would it have the power to do all lugs on a truck-20 of em.

We use a 28v milwakee at work we installsed 3 6" pipe headers 300' long each. we had about half a charge left when we were done. Works awesome.

I have 3 of them, Dewalt, Makita, and Bosch. All work well. The dewalt was actually bought for when we were racing to eliminate a compressor in the trailer.
However on my truck with the Aluminum rims and 8 studs per, I would need to crack them first by hand to remove the lugs.
Voltage is key, nothing under 14.4. If your sole use is the lugs min would be a 18volt. And sorry, cheap is cheap so avoid Ryobi or other off brands. They'll hit the same at first, but won't stay in the game long.

Dewalt is the way to go. I have one in the Motorhome for when we go camping. Haven't used it yet, but I know that I have it when I need it. I also have two 18volt XRP guns from Dewalt. That also has tons of torque.

We use a dewalt 18v heavy duty on the farm and it works well. The only thing I've seen out do the Dewalt is the 28v milwaukee, but I believe it's also more $$$

Never had a Dewalt but my buddy is a contractor. We were stirring a huge pot of gravy for hours on Thanksgiving (our church makes meals for about 1400 on T-giving morning) using a paint stir attachment for a 5 gal bucket and his Dewalt gun. That thing performed like crazy and I felt like it would have run all day. Very nice equipment.
