I've been wanting this thing for a long time. Overpriced floor jack or not, this thing is awesome.

Yeah HOA's are shi**y. That's INSANE they think they can enforce that in your own driveway. Mine had a clause that you could work on the car, but has to appear not actively worked on overnight, and could not be up on jacks long term. The time limit on that was 1 month so some other people got away with it for a while till they had to get it on the ground and finished up.

Almost every new community has stupid HOA rules these days, even single homes not just townhouses. It sucks. Only "old" communities seem to not have HOA's. Sadly, those kind of rules are written up at the time that communities/homes are built, and even brand new residents have almost no say in what goes into those documents. Our community required something like an 80% vote to change any of the core rules, and no community could ever reach that threshold for yay votes for anything.

You should reread the covenents/rules closely just to make sure that threat is correct. I was on the board and/or went to meeting and it was not lawyers just other regular folks and I saw them make easy mistakes in understanding of what the rules really say.
