You are not a machinist in a manufacturing plant
You are a lazy clown stripping and rounding heads of tiny bolts and warping your drilling surface
You are making your vehicle less safe because it's designed for hand-tight tolerances
Almost everything is designed for hand-tight tolerances
There is an over-torquing epidemic

This isn’t random at all and applies to everyone’s life on a daily basis.

I know it's not popular, but yes every jabroni using an impact for everything has gotten out of control

An impact gun is not a drill. Don't speak about topics you don't understand.

Don’t care. That noise is too satisfying.

Can you please put our balancing weights on the inside when you change the tires from now on? TIA.

Is calling an impact driver a “drill” the equivalent of calling a magazine a “clip?”

That's what I'm talking about.
It makes you feel good to call it a gun doesn't it

I don’t think this thread had the impact you thought it would.

Speak for yourself, mines stuck on the Space Station right now. I think it's because I impact drivered the hatch shut.

It does. It also makes you sound stupid to call it a drill.

I installed a toilet seat this morning and used an impact driver.

Why does almost everything in a service manual have torque specs, many of them different?

Apparently you don't know much about vehicles and torque specifications.

You're comparing your rant on impact drills to Jesus? Get a grip, man.
