Oh my gosh that's soo awesome that she got a 4 post lift!
When can I start bringing vehicles over?

The other night in the barn when i was taking a beverage break i was thinking how much faster i could've worked on the car if i had a lift vs rolling around on the ground.

Evening Tim. what a giver you are to buy your bride a thoughtful gift like that! My buildings just don't have the headspace for one or a certain girl named Marjorie would have been gifted one by now!

I'm pretty happy with the lift, it's barely big enough for my big truck. I'm very disappointed with all the scratches from the shipping, the way it is shipped both runway are upside down. I saw that there were a few scratches on the sides but not too bad. Once I got it home and unpacked and the runways flipped over I could not believe the scratches some of them are deep. It was shipped in a box trailer, at the final location they said they had a hard time unloading it. I have sent the company photos and voiced my opinion, maybe they will through me a bone of some sort. Here are a couple photos of the damage.

I forgot to mention that the cool wheels it has, once installed you lower the lift and I kid you not, I can move it around by myself.

Holy moly looks like a pack of bears attacked your lift! I hope they can do something to make it up to you.

I've been looking for 4 post lifts that can also do my dually truck but the price sure jumps up in price! I love those little devices to be able to move the lift around!

Good evening guys, Didn't get a lot accomplished today. Helped a neighbor out this afternoon and hung a new light over his kitchen counter.

By the way Maria loves her new lift.
