[DeTomaso] QuickJack Portable Car Lift - $999 at Costco

If you look at the review video, you will see there is ample access to the
rear of the car, with the front of the car over the hydraulic cylinders,
leaving the rear open. At a lift height of 51" I have ample room to work
underneath the car.

Yes, you would need to make ramps to initially clear the lift, which I
made. It really is no big deal.

This is a hefty lift at 1,150#, but I can move it around easily, as you can
see in the video.

I put a hydraulic quick disconnect to the pump so I can move it out of the
way when the car is on the lift or not being used.

   Mike, this may be more than you want but I would suggest you consider a
   scissors lift.

   In looking at them, I found what I think is one of the best - the Titan
   6600. I found it available online forA $1,499A +A $285A shipping.A

   I was going to use it in my garage, but a friend said I could use his
   new private shop he is outfitting to work on his corral of cars, so I
   had it delivered there.A
