I have been pretty much kicking around the idea of one or the other.. The Atlas 7000 seems about the best built/cost in that style of lift. I don't want to mess with the floor in my 9 ft high shop either.. Backing up my pickup to the Atlas seems like a great way to unload certain stuff out of the back of it.

This 6600 lb has my attention too.. about $400 cheaper, when I figure cost to pick up the Atlas.. Just the 24 volt electric locks seems like they are a bit handier too. Wish i could look at one. Alas looks really nice for $2295 picked up.. The Twinbusch does not come with a trolley to move the thing.. That part does not bother me.. $1926 to the freight place for pick-up.

That column lift gave me an idea....it would take a bit of fabrication, but it would be waaayyyy more better.

Use a forklift. Make a set of forks like lift arms. Then....you also get a forklift.

Great idea if you have the space for that size of fork lift. You will basically need two bays and double height to fit that
