Four days from date of order to my home.
With an 8' ceiling in my garage, I was looking at the mid-lifts myself.
What jobs would I NOT be able to do on my Boxster with one of these?
Weird thought: for the jobs that the mid-lift would be in the way, would I be able to lift the car then lower the car onto jack stands & slide the lift out of the way?)
