car lifts
So is this a lift for commercial use or just a weekend helper?
I'm a weekend warrior. I use my lift maybe two, three times a month ... less in the heat of the summer a LOT more in the winter.
So the need for a heavy use, commercial grade lift was WAY overkill for my usage.
I bought one of these ...

It was installed in 2007 and has worked flawlessly.
When I was picking it up, planning to do the install myself, the guy loading asked about installation and offered to do it for $200.
I was going to have to buy an 8" long 3/4" carbide masonry bit and rent a 3/4" hammer drill in order to sink the anchors. That alone would have been close to $100.
So hell yes ... install it and I'll drink beer.
