I've got a 20x20 garage, so I have to be careful with space. My brother is planning on getting a removable 2 post lift. You wheel the post over it's mounting location (once the holes are already drilled) and use an impact gun to tighten the bolts down. When you're done with the lift, unbolt and wheel them out of the way.

My thinking is I hate the time it takes to get the car up on jacks, I'm sure I'll hate even more moving two 500 lb posts around.

What I'm thinking about is a mid rise lift. They are 4 1/4" collapsed, just sit on top of the garage floor (no installation), and raise to about 40" high.

The obvious problem is the center of the car is blocked by the lift. But, I could leave the lift in the center of the garage and just park over it. When I need to get the car off the ground, center the car over the lift and hit the up button. The majority of my work is going to be wheels, brakes, suspension, and oil changes.

I just wanted to hear some opinions.
