I suggest everyone gets a high/ultra torque version instead. When I did a car work a few weeks ago, none of my mid torque wrench worked for a couple of rusted bolts except using the high torque version I bought for removing the crank bolt. I was thinking it was not a good buy just to remove one bolt. Now I loved it so much because it saved me so much time when dealing with the actual work.

Using a single high torque impact wrench for everything is fine. If you can afford the luxury of a mid torque wrench, it is great too as you can use a lighter wrench and bring out the big gun only when necessary.

I bought a DCF900 and I have no regrets, but it is definitely a big boy. Pretty heavy with tons of torque. I agree with the sentiment that if you have extra money, it'd be nice to have a lighter one for other uses too.

I have the high torque version and hoping this mid torque is pretty capable at a lower weight and size. The high torque (899) is quite big when working under the cars and trucks.

You're asking what's most likely your average DIY to hammer in a nail with a sledge hammer. Just a complete and unnecessary overkill to go with a high torque. If someone needs a high torque, they most likely already have a mid torque and absolutely only use the high torque when needed.

Yes, watch the YouTube video on this from The Torque Channel. It's a monster.

Different tool. The Xtreme is 12v, much smaller with lower torque.

You can get a better model at bigronline (after signing up). It's going for $99 + free 5 battery (you'll have to buy a cheap item for $100+ free shipping). You get two batteries and a free bag if you add another bare tool (e.g. their discounted heavy duty grinder).
