$129+$99+$35=$263 The math checks out.
Real-world torque on this is about 240 ft-lbs. That's plenty for things like lug nuts and removing mower blades. You can't do drivetrain or heavy construction work with it, but if you do that kind of work, you know that already.
This guy tests the P261 and the new brushless P262 for real-world torque on his YT channel.
P261 test: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWeguH-2UJA
P262 test: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpxHkkz
Thorough reviews and scientific measurements with all the technical info (e.g. battery types) and real-world results.
TL;DR: The P262 brushless is more than twice as powerful, achieving 91% of claimed torque vs. 81% test achievement on the P261.

Also something like this [harborfreight.com] can be used to install lug nuts. I recommend you err on the low side and tighten by hand.
Using this instead of a torque wrench would result in over-tightened lug nuts which can cause warped brake rotors. Not to mention the increased difficulty with changing a flat tire on the side of the road with only the tools in your spare tire kit.

Or, check out this deal and consider getting the Milwaukee M12 Fuel brushless stubby 3/8" impact, which is about the best all-around impact wrench made these days, for $26 more, but for the tool only. If you already have M12 tools then you should be set, otherwise it's going to cost you for batteries and a charger. You can search the site for other deals that include this wrench.

Btw this Ryobi looks a lot like my old Craftsman C3 1/2" impact wrench. Any chance both are made by the same company?
Drill: Adjustable chuck, mainly for drilling, takes round bits (but can use hex bits)
Impact Driver: 1/4" hex chuck, mainly for driving bolts & screws into wood, takes 1/4" hex bits
Impact Wrench: 1/4", 3/8", 1/2" & higher square anvil, mainly for breaking hex nuts & bolts on vehicles, takes sockets
There's some overlap, but each is intended for specific uses. There's also cordless ratchets, of which there's an impact variety, and right angle drills. Also cordless screwdrivers, which are basically non-impact drivers for low-torque uses like assembling shelves, building PCs, installing hardware, etc.
