I've not bitten the bug, so I have not jumped on the cordless vac bandwagon. I wish I did though, it was 99 for the DW cord/cordless version two weeks ago, now 120. Just cant seem to justify it when my small rigid seems to be fine... for now. Except for keeping the vehicle clean. THere's something to be said about being able to vac out the vehicle daily, keeps a nice clean work environment. Just the dust tracking out on your clothing gets all over the vehicle, and makes it look cheap and unorganized.
