Doesn't sound like you've ever used a cordless ratchet. You're going to be very disappointed expecting it to break bolts loose beyond its torque rating. Again a ratchet isn't an impact.
Agree with you here. Even with grade 8, the maximum applicable torque for install would probably be in the neighborhood of 40ft lbs . It's the stuck fasteners that you need the removal power for. In that regard, I've gone in excess of 100 ft lbs for 10 and 12mm heads.
As for air vs cordless.... If you have air, and you don't do this often, why waste money.
I use my non fuel ratchet all the time. I rarely wish for more power, as the fuel is heavier and has a larger body.
This 3/8th reminds of of my butterfly impact, with more power. But for me it has limited use case for automotive, unless your doing engine tear downs and what not.
SMH.Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit. You do you nonetheless.
Highly recommend the stubby for home mechanics. The Fuel version of the ratchet is nice for assembling stuff in tight quarters like suspension or tightening lug bolts before doing the final tightening with a torque wrench as its max torque is 55 lbs. I used to be jealous of air tools but would rather not be tethered nowadays. If the 2767-20 doesn't get it off, you might as well just cut it off.

The only electric ratchet from Milwaukee that is strong enough worth using is the Fuel extended head one that is quite useful and has more power than this one.
So far the stubby, Fuel 3/8 ratchet and 2767-20 are my most used auto tools. I would like to pick up the extended reach ratchet as well
The stubby was able to remove front driveshaft, header to exhaust nuts, but once you get to fasteners much larger than 12mm, I try an impact for a second but then usually bring out a breaker bar plus pipe for leverage and as a last resort get the big daddy 2767-20 with 1400 ft lbs of torque because thing will literally snap bolts in half!
