The huge flaw there is it lifts on the tires, so you can't do much servicing on the vehicle. No tire rotations, brakes, suspension, checking for a worn front end, diff rebuilds, etc. Or say it is a low car, and like me you are tall, so want to just lift it 8 inches, and then work under the hood, over the front fenders, those block access. Even a 4 post makes things so much more difficult. My first ever hoist was a 4 post, I hated it, and went to a two post, and would never have anything else again. Have you guys looked at Amazon Canada?

price?

price?

$4085 on my trailer in Surrey. We are headed to the coast anyways so not a big deal to bring the trailer along. No PST because it's heading to Alberta

Have had some time to play with the lift since getting it set up. Absolutely love it. Not sure if the brand I ended up with makes any difference, but just having the lift itself. SO nice for even the smallest jobs.

A little tough getting off those ramps at that height??

Nope. So you can move it around wherever you want. Pretty steady without anchors
