For a little home project like that, you're okay to go cheap. A lot of carpenters even recommend just buying a Ryobi for a new laborer, they'll just need replaced a lot sooner.
Anything'll put a screw through 2" of wood, just pre-drill it. For concrete, you'll probably want a hammer drill, but if it's a one-time thing, I'm pretty sure you can rent one from Home Depot or Lowes.

[QUOTE=ChrisLS8;1629666463]To a degree but low quality bits won't even drive a 4" screw halfway before they start camming and stripping the screw. I drive literally 1-2k phillips heads a day if I'm in the field helping out.
90% of screws available at home improvement stores are....phillips and Phillips doesn't exist outside the US because they are chit and everyone else is smarter than us. When I get the choice I will pick Torx 10/10 times.[/QUOTE]
Anything longer than 2 inches I get torx screws for so I agree with you. Can't imagine trying to drill a 4 inch phillips head lol. I don't do it for a living though. I just do woodworking projects around the house. Torx also have the advantage of holding in the bit better than phillips. Even with magnetic bits phillips will fall out while torx stay planted

For drills / impacts, on a jobsite everyone is using Dewalt or Milwaukee. For whatever reason the Mexicans seem to like Milwaukee. Can't go wrong with either.

The rigid brushless will be fine for your needs. Those screw are probably t star bit, a bit is usually provided with the screws. Get yourself a concrete drill bit as well
