Looking into buying a car lift and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations. Are there any local places that offer rent to own options? My ceiling is a little over 11ft to the studs and approximately another 12 inches to the roof, So I’d probably have to get a lift with the cables on the bottom. ---

You can finance one through snap on. 11feet is kind of short ---

4’ lift height, and no shit in the middle, nice… better than trying to do a clutch on a mid rise scissor lift for sure. ---

I have enough ceiling height in my garage, however i would like to have room to store a vehicle under it while winter. Although the idea that its only minutes to tear down or put up is realy appealing as well. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/car-lift/62483.md?page=2)
