Trailer Valet

Anyone using the Trailer Valet with an electric drill. Our rig is just under 4,000 lbs loaded and we have a slight uphill incline on our driveway. Together my DW and I can push it into place but sure would be nice to use a drill motor. We have the drill adapter but I need to buy the drill. 18 volt? 24 volt? Is variable speed a necessity? Any recommendations? Thanks for any help.

    According to their website a 18v drill is all that is needed. I don't think variable speed would be a necessity as the gearing should be very low anyway. A larger drill however would not hurt anything and would most likely give longer service. If it were me, I would go for a 18-20v 1/2in drill with a lithium battery.
