Tire/wheel change on the road
Acme Tools, has this M-18 FUEL™ & M12 FUEL™ Mid-Torque & Ratchet Combo Kit for $379. Seems like a really good price, question is would this impact driver be a good choice to carry for my truck (3500) ...

*YOUR* job is to watch the guy tightening the lugs with his impact.
*ASK* the guy what his impact is set at!!..:@

With impact guns I would say some guys can get pretty close. My buddies all change sandcar tires with electric impacts. Dont think I've ever seen them with a torque wrench in their hands.
At home I use an air powered impact. Set it to power level 2 and let it hit 2 or 3 times is about 70ft lbs. I then torque by hand after that.
