I'm not sure m12 fuel is a joke. I have the same cordless ratchet as Astro - have used it for quite a bit, similar to the uses you mention with your old 29ft lb Makita. For as much as I love and am an advocate for wrenching with 1/4 drive, mine is a 3/8". It won't impact out bolts, but an m12 fuel impact gun will do 250 ft lbs in stubby type, and will remove most lugs. It's low torque setting allow gentle work, and I'm pretty happy. Have had some of the batteries for close to 10 years now...
