Yes, I looked around some. Most of the discussions have been sizing and 4 vs 2.

I need a 4-post to store my 1990 Caprice on. No work ... just park.

I'm asking for the brand you would suggest and/or the brand to avoid.

I already have a Bendpak 9k 4-post to work on.

Thanks..........

I just picked up a used Bendpak HD9 from a seller nearby. I was tempted by the constant ads I was seeing on Facebook for lifts, but I really wanted a certified lift. Most of these are not being used much in people's homes, so good used one is hard to beat. I paid $2750 just a few weeks ago. I was lucky in that a second one was for sale nearby for $2500. I would have bought that had my seller not agreed to lower his price a bit, b ut the convenience of having him close by was worth the premium.

Advantage XLT 9000# perfect for storage!
I have the same lift plus the larger 11k version.

Both have been excellent, although I have no qualms looking at a less expensive lift if it’s only for use as a parking lift and the budget is tight.

Wildfire sells essentially the same lift under their name, and Advantage now owns Backyard Buddy.

Seems like people don't identify 4 posts as park on or work on, they all end up used for either way.

I have a Direct Lift. Not one big enough for a Caprice however. It is 12 years old and operates at least once a week. It’s been flawless. Easy to use. I got it with the sliding jack. Three years after warranty was up it leaked. Direct Lift replaced it no charge. Been very good for me.

You stole that ! !

My HD9 is about 9 years old now. No regrets. I use it for servicing my vehicles. The other would be just parking.

Yeah, I went to the site but missed the "ParkingLifts" section. My apologies.
