Ok-- I've talked my brother-in-law into going halves on a lift which we are going to put in his detached 3 car garage. The DIYer in me is very excited about this.

Does anybody have any opinions about 2 post vs. 4 post?

Anything in particular to look for or to avoid?

2 post should be half as expensive as 4 post...

I thought this was about as perfect as I could think of for home.

If you want to drool over a nearly perfect "OK it's perfect" garage follow the link below to follow the full build.

That garage is sick! Don't know that I'd ever set foot in my house again if I had that.

Those lifts are pretty affordable.

There would no reason to go in the house, just make the wife come to the garage when needed.
