I don't want one I need to bolt to the floor, so 2 posts are out.

Scissor lifts block too much access for floor jacks and bodies than a 4 post lift. How is a 4 post lift worthless?
My scissor lift blocks almost nothing on a Porsche and can be used on almost any flat concrete surface. Plus it works in a garage with a normal ceiling height and has wheels so it can be moved when there's not a car on it.
