1. An impact tool comprising:
- a housing;
an impact mechanism supported in the housing, the impact mechanism being configured to drive rotation of an output shaft about a first axis;
a motor supported in the housing, the motor being configured to drive the impact mechanism when energized; and
a pressure probe coupled to the housing, the pressure probe being configured to couple to a valve of a motor vehicle tire to measure an air pressure of the motor vehicle tire.
