Do drivers only have the ability to screw in things? Can you use drill bits in them also, or do you need to have a drill/driver combo?

Which is a better tool set to buy. Both are really good and i would buy the newest of both and brand new, the milwaukee red lithium or RIDGID because RIDGID stands up to their name and have extremely good service warentees, but milwaukees newest red lithium are really nice. Need help. Would buy a kit with impact driver, drill/driver, sawzaw worklight.18volt lithium ion.

I'm looking at buying a new drill/driver set and noticed Hitachi now uses a slide style battery on some drill models. I'm concerned about compatibility with products they introduce in the future.

I am shopping for a cord (or cordless) Drill/Driver. What should I use to consider the right equipment for household use?
(1) How much voltage should I be considering?
(2) How much wattage?
(3) How much rpm ?
(4) Other advice?
(5) I am considering Skil and DeWalt, do you recommend one over another?
Thanks

Alright I went to OSH today and bought a craftsman drill that was normally like 100bucks and got it at 50... So now I'm wondering whether or not I got a good tool... The only tools I've ever used were Ryobi and Black and Decker and they didnt have any of either of those at the store... So... Whatcha think? Is Craftsman a good tool?

He is a farmer. He would not use it everyday but I think he would use it quite often. He is also thinking about renting a house and it needs some work. So I was thinking of tools that would be useful for farming and around the house. Thanks
What is a drill/driver?

Is that a good deal

I'm in the market for a cordless drill/driver. I would like to get one that is of superb quality and has as many applications as possible.

For example, I would like it to have a built-in level for both vertical and horizontal drilling. I wouldn't mind it having a light for use in dark places (e.g attic & basement). Also, I think an optional hammer feature may come in handy from time to time but isn't absolutely necessary.

I would prefer something well balanced with a comfortable grip. I'm not a professional contractor, but I am in the process of fixing up a house so the drill will see moderate use is the future.

I've read that when it comes to battery technology Lithium Ion is the way to go for a nice balance between power, weight, and longevity - or holding charge. I think an 18v Lithium Ion would be nice but am not dead set against considering something else - perhaps 14.4v.

I've looked at Makita, Milwaukee, and DeWalt. They all seem to make a nice product. Online searches say Panasonic makes a good one as well as Bosch. I'm torn. Any help from personal experience or even anecdotal is much appreciated.

Please offer your opinion regardless of price. Again, I desire a drill that has many of the above features and such a comprehensive drill/driver will have extreme value for me in the years to come whatever the price.

Thanks in advance.
