If you get an impact driver you still need a drill. I can not stand the noise of the impact drivers, and have always used a drill for drilling and for putting screws in, many thousands of them. So actually use two drills, one with the drill bit and the other set on slow speed for putting in screws.

Amazon showed a combo package of impact plus drill, that would be better then just the impact.

That's my setup. Plus a third battery usually plugged in for when one of them dies.

I picked up a few tools at online auctions here in the Houston area. Just know what you are purchasing. You don’t won’t to over pay for something. I picked up a Milwaukee Electric shears first $25. They have proven invaluable.

Fire extinguishers should be the first tool in your bus.
See Biscuitsjam's build thread to see why.

I have never thought of it as a tool... however you are so right. I have a 5lb? maybe 10lb? CO2 extinguisher. It is about 6" diameter. I keep one in all vehicles, and a few of them in the shop.

I like co2 because it does not make a mess out of everything. The dry chemical is quite corrosive if not cleaned well after use.
