That Site 18V drill looks identical to the Makita 8390, I'm wondering if its a possibility Makita are throwing in the same internals of older spec drills into these new Site drills like Bosch were doing with the Bosch Green. This particular drill has an all metal gearbox so cant be half bad for 50 notes.
