Nope, I work at a GM dealer. Both MAC and Snap-on top-tier 1/2" impacts are pricey. Of course that's tool truck price. A guy that works here has a new Snap-on and it's pretty badass. The speed and power on this thing is unreal. But nothing like dragging a hose around everywhere.

Oh I know they are pricey, but not $1400 I have a tool box with over 35k in tools, mostly snap-off and matco. I know all about pricey tools but none of the big three have yet to come out with an impact over the 1k price mark. It just hasn't happened in a 1/2". I've seen $600 but nobodies hit 1k let alone 1400.


Unless it's one of those "Buy this impact get this $500 socket set for free" Then all they do is raise the damn price but you aren't paying for just the impact.

Damn, Sorry my mistake. I was thinking 1400lbs-ft. I think he paid $850 for it. Still can't see paying that much. I also have a pile of money in tools in my garage. Be buying for 30+ yrs.

I buy IR air tools

But I know the guns used in roundy-round racing in the pits are $2500 guns

That makes a lot more sense, I'm an IR impact guy, but my impact is about 8 years old and I paid 250ish way back then. Still going strong.

I use my Ti2131 the most and it's plum worn out. My 3/8" air ratchet has more power. LOL

It's about 20 yrs old. It was the first model of the composite body

If your doing this for home use go Milwaukee, this pic is outdated, I never use air tools anymore, really. And I have the latest and greatest 1/2" hi torq m18 impact too.
