    3 years ago I got a cheap skill one (30 bucks on thanksgiving sale) made by Skill that was 14.4 volts. Man it is sorry. I mean it is 3 years old but I have used it minimally over the years. Now I can get about 15 holes drilled out of it before the battery dies. It may just be a crappy battery but this drill has sucked from day one.

    So I was hoping to get one for around 100 bucks.

    I saw this one and it recently went on sale for 139
    DeWalt DC728KA Heavy-Duty 14.4

    But this is the best rated power drill out today but it is close to 2 bills

    There is a Ryobi one at Lowes for 89 but I am kind of scared of buying lesse brands now after my bad luck with the Skill one. I had been told Skill was not a bad brand.

    You guys have any suggestions?
