There is a guy in our shop that just spent 750 for the kit. His drill with the battery on it is pretty big. He said the batteries alone are 140 each. I think I'll stick with my 18v Dewalt. I can buy 3 batteries to the price of his one. For the price of that drill it should work flawlessly. I'm surprised Panasonic/Hitachi were at the top of the list though.
