Run all dewalt. Got 985 3 speed xrp 13 m metal chuck combi drill. Good drill bit heavy compared to smaller ones. Drills 13mm hole in 10mm steel easy all day. Only prob chuck got damp wet and started slipping. Dewalt dealer fitted cheap chuck $20. But register gaurantee on line to get your 3 year warranty.
 
I have 2 drills just now a Milwaukee fuel combi and a metabo quick.
the Milwaukee has a little more grunt I feel
the Metabo is more versatile as it has a removable chuck and angle attachment.
i would also look at Panasonic as the last drill I had had the best batteries of any drill ive had
but the drill lacked a bit of torque for blunt sparky bits tbh.
 
You'll have to go a long way to beat the Milwaukee or Hilti ranges!!

Basically you should be buying the best tools you can afford at the time. Don't over stretch yourself buying power tools that you can't really afford, it won't do you or your business any good!!
 
I have to agree with engineer 54 i have got the 18 volt Milwaulkee heavy duty combi cordless, use it every day & have had no problems at all. It has out lasted every other cordless that i owned. I have had it for about 4 years & the batteries are still going strong I got disilusioned with the makita batteries not lasting with mine, but i do like their corded range
