I was looking on ebay at impact wrenches and found the following: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cg...469428&r=0&t=0 I'm assuming based on price and that it's powered by a car battery that it wouldn't do the UDP job. Am I mistaken? Hehe, now everyone's gonna go bid on it.

Mini air compressor? Why's that needed? It's going to take you forever to take stuff off because the compressor needs to refill itself.

Thats what I thought at first... but they are seperate. The compressor is just for inflating tires. The wrench is completely electric.

Ohhh... thanks for pointing that out. Hmmmm..... sounds interesting, but I won't put my money into it unless there's proof that it works.

no, i dont think that electric impact gun will take off a crank pulley, they have trouble taking off lugnuts sometimes. Id definetely stay away from the electric ones that run off your cigratte lighter. SnapOn makes a cordless impact gun that i really want, they say it can take of lugs too. Kinda pricey, gotta save money.

I saw that too

it's almost $400 and it claims to remove "MOST" lug nuts.
