Default cordless impacts

So my lady is asking me what I want for Christmas and I was thinking a cordless impact for working on the car.
This one in particular
Shop DEWALT 20-Volt 3/8-in Square Drive Cordless Impact Wrench at Lowes.com t+wrench&pl=1&currentURL=%3FNtt%3Dcordless%2Bimpac t%2Bwrench&facetInfo=
but then I was thinking maybe get a impact driver so that I could use it for things other than a socket
Shop DEWALT 20-Volt 1/4-in Drive Cordless Impact Driver at Lowes.com
looks like the wrench has 130ft/lb and the driver has 118ft/lb.
Does anyone have something like this that you like to use?

I was going to post the same thread. Good info in there. I have a dewalt 20v 1/4" impact and it kicks ***. It's the best tool I've ever bought.

I have the 3/8in DeWalt, love it to death. That thing is killer for just about anything. Used it to run the spring compressor last few cam swaps I did, never missed a beat.

I havent had a chance to try out a dewalt but I know they're other stuff is awesome!
which size would you need more? the 1/2" would definitely be perfect for anything larger...wheels nuts...cross members....suspension etc etc
but if you want it for making quick work out of smaller stuff and can turn down the power a bit the 1/4 would be awesome for removing intake bolts and dash bolts!

i was thinking the dewalt 3/8s for any bolts 17mm and smaller, which is pretty much everything on my car minus some suspention bits.

I dad has a full line of older dewalt stuff and i liked it all
