For it to really pay off for me, I'm waiting for their top tool box to go back on sale. Saw an old coupon couple months ago and it was a steal

Except for their new 2 ton low profile floor jack. I'll try to review it later...not too happy with any of their jacks
if it's a good floor jack you're looking for, try Costco if there's one in your area. I've been very satisfied with what i got there. Although one started to not hold pressure, i brought it back to Costco and they gave me a full refund after 1 yr and I used that money to buy their "improved" (3 ton) floor jack. I feel like buying a floor jack from Costco is like having a lifetime purchase... buy once and never be without one again even if it fails. It makes me want to buy more of them, but the wife won't allow it...

Good thing about being in Portland OR, theres 5 costcos from me and about 3-4 harbor freights lol. Anyways about the floor jack, I need a low profile one since my cars suspension is low. I can't fit a regular floor jack underneath. Plan B is to purchase low profile car ramps, those are: $280 for the ones I want off amazon. I think the brand is race ramps, they provide a 10 degree angle unlike the cheaper brands that are way too steep. My bumper wouldn't clear most car ramps.....off to search for a low profile floor jack that's inexpensive but good quality.

Dude, one of my cars is lowered too... 4" off the ground. My wife won't ride in it anymore because she says she can feel the road touching her ***... LOL. Here, I dug up the thread for you:

That is not only low profile, but the "deep" neck design is very helpful too.... you gotta check it out.

We just had a HF store open about a month ago here, until then I was putting off on an ITC membership. Over time, I've seen quite a few "deals" better than the regular coupons that I would have been interested in. Within 2 weeks, it paid for itself.
Sure, it's a good deal for HF as well... the encouragement is that you will buy more. But if you do need stuff either way, it can pay for itself in short time.

Thanks for the advice, I'll check out the link after work. Doing an oil change just got easier. Sorry I'm just one of those guys that don't like other guys messing with my car. Especially Jiffy lube or any dealers, why do they always mess around with radio settings?

I totally agree... i always fear they're going to not pay attention and strip the threads on the drain plug or something like that and I'll drive off leaving a trail of oil until the engine explodes.
Jiffy Lube hires idiots:
Or thieves:
And then it makes people do this:
If you want to do quick and easy oil changes, get a MityVac... absolutely love it.

I don't know why Jiffy Lube would do this but if they or any other place for some reason disconnects your battery it resets all your settingswhy do they always mess around with radio settings?
