What is the difference between Brushless and Fuel?
Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank david82
Also their FUEL version is Milwaukee top of line brushless intended to give longer run time and better output.
The "brushless" I believe are only available for the drill and impact driver. Basically they are a middle ground. They offer a brushless motor, but give the same torque ratings (power) as the regular brushed version. In my mind, I would either stick with the regular brushed options, or goto the fuel variations.

I have both brushed and fuel version of the same tools. The brushed versions are more than adequate for professional use, especially in the 18v platform. the fuel just gives you a little extra power and runtimes. If cost is a consideration, don't think that your giving up life changing options by NOT going with fuel versions.
However, the fuel is the top tier, and there is a difference - but all the brushed stuff I have is still great and does everything I need and ask them to. The brushless forms utilize a newer and more complex technology to drive the tools, which give some benefit like runtime, torque, and longevity under heavy use. Either versions will impress you.
The fuel tools use Milwaukee's best brushless motor design that give the highest torque and power output. The brushless ones still have a (different) brushless motor, but performance wise, you can expect the same as you would out of the brushed variety. You just gain the newer brushless technology, and the added benefits brushless designs provide, but no gain in power with those.

Need a breaker bar to first loosen the lug nuts. Good for brakes and other things though...
Great. Truck lug nuts tq'd at 150 lbs can be removed according to you. How about 125 ft lbs? Have you tried that? 100 with lug nuts that have not been removed for a few year? Or after a tire shop installs new tires and a few years later you get a flat and need to remove the tire.
No need to have a tire iron in the car then, right?
