FWIW, I have a nice Bend Pak scissor lift that goes to 42=E2=80=9D.  I know i=
t was under $2,000, I think about $1800 delivered.   It can be moved around b=
ut is very heavy.  I just keep a car on top of it when not in use, TR3 or Mo=

=EF=BB=BFHi Jerry,
        I have an EZ Car Lift.  It is very compact and takes up virtually n=

        Hope this helps.
