Is it ice yet?

You definitely do not need to spend the $$ on a Milwaukee any longer! There are a few drills out there that have even more torque than the Milwaukee Fuel. Last year I bought a FLEX (Model #FX1271T-2B) at Lowe's and its their new "contractor grade" line of drills that has 1,400 inch/lbs of torque, comes with two batteries (both a 2.5aHr and 5.0aHr), a charger and hard case for just over $199 on sale! Not to mention the drill has a limited lifetime warranty!!! The FLEX drills were developed in Germany and are now available in the US. This is a drill/hammer-drill and it twists my 30 year-old Mora Blue 8" auger like a dream. I took the old bottom portion of my hand-cranked Mora and added a bolt (welded) to the bottom portion so it would fit my FLEX drill. I used it all of last ice season and it works incredible, and I use the drill for everything else the remainder of the year.
