Sometimes you can find the M18 Drill and Impact driver together on sale. The two of those and an extra battery are probably the most used tools in my house.

Can confirm, it's great. The 12 volt is pretty great too.

m18 tools I own: 1/2 impact wrench, impact driver 1/4" hex, 7-1/4 circular saw, 5" throat portaband, 4-1/2" angle grinder, Oscillator, jigsaw, Weedwacker/pole chainsaw, small vacuum, 1-9/16 SDS drill. I also have an m12 screwdriver and m12 3/8 ratchet. Milwaukee is really killing it in this market. There are so many tools for the same batteries, and in almost all cases they are not just good cordless tools, but good in general. Most impressive to me is their electric pole chainsaw. it has a 10" bar and with a bit of skill you can actually get it to plunge tip first. It wouldn't be my first choice for felling due to it's form factor, but I cut probably 50-60 3-6" dead branches on half an 8 amp battery a few days ago. Side note: I really wish milwaukee made an adaptor from M18 batteries to USB-C 80W for a MacBook pro.

  I'm on the deWalt 20/60 volt system, but everything you said applies to either, with trivial details as the difference. When buying battery operated tools you need to decide in advance are you buying a single tool, or a battery system. If just a tool any mid-range drill/impact works (face it, that is what everyone is buying who isn't buying a system). If there is any chance you will buy any other tool it is either DeWalt flexvolt or Milwaukee m18 because both have a large catalog of tools that fit your one battery which is convenient because it means you will always have a battery charge to finish the task.
