Sub heading; Extend initial product lifetime...

I recently decommissioned a corded drill that I inherited from my father-in-law. Built in the late 60's / early 70's. It had a very extended lifetime. There are probably very few drills, corded or otherwise that are built today that would have the sustainability of 70-80 years of use.
