Sorry, I can't quite share your enthusiasm for an impact wrench, it can do more damage than it's worth. The only things I would consider it's use for would be a stubborn bolt on the vibration damper, perhaps stubborn rear brake drum retaining nuts, and with the torque set appropriately, wheel lugs though I'd rather use one to loosen, not tighten. I have borrowed one the 2 or 3 times in my lifetime that I needed one.
