I switched from impact driver to hand ratchet for interior trim, no regrets

Used to zip every screw out with my Milwaukee impact, figured faster was better. Then I stripped a Torx head on a door panel in a 2018 F150 over in Salem, took me an hour to drill it out. Now I use a hand ratchet with a magnetic bit holder for anything plastic, it's slower but I haven't broken one clip since. Anyone else gone back to old school tools after a dumb mistake like that?

Nothing humbles you faster than a stripped Torx screw costing you an hour of your life.
