I recomend snap on and makita. The makita will take (properly torqued, not ones put on with a composite 500ft lb impact, otherwise known as the manpac) car lug nuts off, and it fits in a lot tighter places. The snap on one I have is a little more powerful and the battery seems to run forever. I don't have a problem fitting it in most places, but I have a lot of wobble sockets and extensions.
If you are not constantly working on your car 8 hours a day, you could probably get by with the harbor freight ones.
I have been using my snap on 3/8 for 2 years. The ring is wearing out that holds the sockets on, the springs that hold the battery in got weak too. I use this thing CONSTANTLY. I've had oil poured on it, dropped it from the lift arm etc... no hiccups.
