Saw a Pep Boys ad in this morning's paper for a 2-ton engine hoist. Folds up
for storage (hopefully, it folds up only when you WANT it to!). Made by
Torin (which I've never heard of). $120. They say if it seems too good to be
true, it probably is.and that sounds like an awfully good price. By way of
comparison, Harbor Freight has 2-ton Central Hydraulic units at about $200.
If anyone has any info or opinions on this, I'd appreciate hearing from you.
Thanks!!

    If anyone is thinking of getting this, then I think I have found it 
CHEAPER! I have my 'future' son-in-law living in my house [without my 
daughter who wants to marry him :-\ , long story & don't ask]. He has 
obtained a catalog from:    Max Tool [kind of like a Harbor Freight :-\ 
]. On the cover is this same engine hoist for only $99.99, Part # 
ME3085. Go to:
    www.maxtool.com    OR    phone: 1-800-MAX-DEAL        I guess to 
order it? I've never heard of this Co. before or have I ever dealt with 
them. I just hate to see people spend about $20.00 more for something. 
BUT you have to think about shipping, too. So this may NOT be a deal 
afterwards. :-\  I just thought that you might be interested. Good luck!
