After a lot of talk we are finally in the planning stages of a new shop/garage here at my parents. I'm living at home for the time being, but once the shop is built i may not leave. LOL Plan is a stick built 40x40(maybe bigger), and obviously it needs a lift. I'm looking to buy a lift before we get too far along and realize we didn't spec out the building right. I'm looking to start the excavation in the next few weeks.
I would say that the smallest vehicle we would need to lift would be my Jeep Liberty, doubt anybody will ever own a car. Typical vehicle would be a diesel pick-up, and heaviest being my 12k-lb crew cab F-450. I would say weight is split 50/50 on it, but its a pretty good sized truck. We aren't going to be running a full-time shop, but i can see a lift getting used fairly often.
Heres a couple generic looking lifts i've found locally, are they worth anything? Both are Titan brands.
