I'm in the market for a new Hammmer Drill/Driver to replace my old B&D that I got about 12 years..

I am looking for a Dewalt cordless 18V drill/driver. Are there any models  that would be able to drill in hi psi concrete ? DCD950 Huh

I own DCD710 and as far as wood work I'm all good.
I am looking at dc213 but would prefer to make it into one 18V tool - planing to get a lot of other tools
 
Does anyone have any good suggestion?
THX


Thanks everyone.

You are better off sticking with the 213 for your Hi-PSI concrete. The DCD985 could probably do it, but not very well, and not for a large amount of repetitive holes. Hammerdrill's don't percussion well through hard concrete. You are just better off staying with a Rotary for your concrete.
