Don't get me wrong, they do a good job, but there are many drawbacks, they are not a panacea. If you can get a lift, do it. These are an acceptable alternative when you have no other choice.

Do you get freezing temps in TN?

I think they're great, just takes a few minutes to set up. But once the car is up it can stay there and go up and down between the settings as much as you want in seconds. We had 3 weeks with 12 or more hours a day of below freezing temps, never noticed any issues. I would use these over race ramps every day. Can't use race ramps if the car doesn't drive 🤣 (without jacking it up side by side)

If I had the room and overhead, I would.
But I don't, so these get the job done when space is at a premium.
Well not doin anything more than oil changes..detailing the underneath..and occasional tire removal..I have 2 lifts..a 2 post..and a cantilever single mast drive on...I double stack cars on both sides of my bldg.saves space..and come in handy in the event I have to do any work...

sorry for all of the posts, I'm just a believer in them. They've more than paid for themselves after a handful of uses

@Speedy!
I believe the consensus is (by those who have them): it is a great tool if you don't have the room for a 2 / 4 post lift.

I've got the long version of the 7000, and it just barely is long enough for the Challenger.

.02, and only .02

(Clearly others are making other versions work)

I have the long version as well, I removed the factory plastic lift posts in the back and use magnetic pucks on the pinch welds all the way around. They end up being maybe 2-3" in front of the pinch weld cutout in the rocker plastic

I'm going from the factory puck in the rear, to the pinch weld lined up with the cutout in the front with an adapter on the pinch weld. Just fits with very little to spare.

Quickjack is running a 20% off sale today only. I've looked at them a couple times, but being a cheap ass, just kept talking myself into just using my race ramps.
6000TLX is $1580 Thoughts?
That buys a decent 4-post.

If I had the room and overhead, I would..
Do you have a lot of low clouds, or what's limiting your vertical clearance? Yeah, I know, they're not necessarily supposed to be outside, but my cheapy has lived in the great outdoors for at least eight years now.
