I’ve been thinking about getting a lift for a year now. Believe me, I’ve looked at the alternatives. If I’m working on something and can’t get around it, I’ll set up jackstands and drop the car on to them. I think that with some cleverness tho, there’s few scenarios that a person can’t get around. Think positive.
Re. “too high to drive over”. There’s lots of easy ways to overcome this. One example is in the review. Read it and look at the pics… You are a might quick to diss.
A two post solution would have been unworkable for a couple reasons. 1) The posts take up too much room. 2) I have to enter my back garage turning sharply. It’s not a straight entry. I need to drive thru where the left side post would be. Here’s a cool alternative, but pricey. You put in the base bolts, but then the posts can be disconnected for the bases and stashed. http://www.asedeals.com/two-post-lifts-MaxJax.html
