What size compressor - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am looking to replace my ancient small compressor that is good for filling up tires with something that can occasionally use a small grinder, 1/2" impact, and ratchet. Someday maybe a paint gun? I need to stick to a single phase unit and as with anything the budget is small. I found this one on line relatively close to home. The specs look good but I am not sure if it is big enough to do what i want. I can already fill up my tires so i dont need to have another compressor for that. specs below. Thanks!!

6hp Westward 20 gallon tank single stage 120Volt, 135PSI Max, 8.3cfm@40psi, 5.8cfm@90psi
