Now that's an intelligent response. My husband's friend is a mechanic. He helped me out and also told me to go here and read read and read which I did. Thought I would post my decision. Fortunately I am married to a man who is caring and intelligent. Two qualities that you apparently are lacking...
I just bought my husband a lift for his birthday. Chose one from Greg Smith. Seems that the Bendpak pak lifts have way too many start up problems.
I hope he likes it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
