- Man, I'm jealous! I built a big garage with a 10 foot high ceiling so I could put in a lift, but I spent all my money on the garage! It'll just have to wait. With a one ton box 15' long you've got so

- A do it yourself pit would probably be cheaper. In my climate and location (Seattle) though, a pit would be a lap pool in the winter without a floor drain hooked into the sewer, which would add consi

- Good point. I hadn't considered the water drain problem. Thanks.

- In some communities a pit is illegal. I've been told that the reasons include auto fluids deep in the ground and fire hazards. The fluids objection makes some sense, though I don't see why fire would

- Legalities and vapors aside, I'll bet that excavation and replacement concrete or whatever has to be almost as expensive and certainly more time consuming than a lift. I paid $3,000 for mine, and I h

- Right - mine's more for getting additional parking rather than being able to work on the car. If I had a pit big enough to store a car in, that might do it, but then I'd still need the lift to get th

- First thing I did when I moved down to Florida was to check out 4-post lifts. Digging a hole was not an option. I needed extra car space. Looked at every Hemmings ad for lifts and bought what I thin
