I'm using mostly cordless now. Makita 18V. I sold most of my corded power tools.
My 1/4 hex impact driver gets used all the time. Anything from tiny screws to lug nuts to carpentry work.
My drill has no problem hammer-drilling for lag bolts or mixing concrete.
My 1/2 impact is a beast. You have to be careful on the highest setting because it can break some cheaper impact sockets. Pontiac and Honda harmonic damper bolts are no longer a problem.
My 5" angle grinder is a great tool with excellent battery life.

The advantage of cordless is I can take them anywhere. Recently rescued a neighbor with a flat tire and over-torqued lug nuts.

I still use my air die grinders and air ratchet because of their compact size and versatility. Nothing like the sound of an air ratchet to wake your neighbors up Saturday morning.
