I currently use a 14.4V de Walt VSR drill which is also the primary drill from my tool box. I think using the drill for this purpose puts a lot of stress on it and I so want to get a less expensive one to be dedicated to this task. The drill is great for moving the the jacks between the closed position and the point where the jack hits the ground, but once the jack starts to lift the trailer the drill slows right down (even in lowest gear) and will then stop soon after. I've a feeling I would only get a little more movement range out of a premium higher voltage drill. So I'll probably go for one of those 18V Coleman $39 drills from Pep Boys (I think they have a low speed gear), and crank the extra inch myself.
