You'd still have to spin each socket to get it to line up with the lug nut, and you'd have to buy 5 sockets, and the tool would only be good for that exact bolt pattern, and you'd still need to torque each lug nut after putting them back on, and you still need to hand thread it to start, so you don't cross thread.
I did consider torque sticks for my impact wrench, but then realized I already have a torque wrench, it's not hard to use, and it works for any torque.
I consider an air compressor to be among basic household tools. You could fill car tires with a bike pump, but that gets old pretty quick, and it's harder to set a bead that way. That said, I imagine battery powered impact wrenches are pretty good now. I just bought one as part of a Ryobi kit, so I'll know soon enough.
Is the Forearm Forklift any good? I figure if it was helpful, the professionals would use it.
