I picked up a 7000 (I have an SUV to lift too) and it's amazing! I did the 'wheel hack' so I can move it around easier (it's a pig) and just store it underneath the car. The oil change was a breeze and it's going to be easier for seasonal tire changes.

Yes, this is the one I used:

don't get too big a wheel (I picked up the size he used) or it will affect your ability to get the jack under the car, with the blocks in it.
