Well the way I see it is it takes up about the very least storage you are gonna find. Do not have to worry about hydraulics, and it tilts which is a big plus if you want to get either the nose or rear way up. I see an opportunity here for someone to come up with a really innovative design for a lift I think it is a segment of the tool market that is overlooked. Esco makes a mini lift jack air operated that seems a step above a floor jack and good for 5,500lbs. and a height about 20". You could see the lift at www.esco.net. I imagine that autolift 3000 costs over a grand and I do not know if it is available in the U.S.
