I have both Makita and Hilti. I love the Hilti, its a superb drill. It has endless torque, and a great torque selector. Its fairly light weight, and is a durable MoFo. The only problem with it is the battery life. Its 3 years old, and even with new batteries, it just sucks up the power.

Now the trusty makita. Awesome battery life, bit heavier than the Hilti, and is also one durable MoFo. I dropped the Makita off the roof onto the concrete driveway, and just put hairline cracks in the casing. I have had this drill for like 8 years, and it is still using the original batteries. They hold great charges too. I use the original bit, but the slotted side is all F'ed off. The batteries seem to last forever in this thing as well. I stick the buffing pad on it, and use it to buff the roof of the car, as I feel its easier to control.
