Tired of rolling around under my vehicles so I bought the lift I had queried about a year or so ago. First oil change completed on my son's Honda. Next up an oil change on the roadster then detailing the Mustang underside.

I hope you consulted with NorthernDave on this purchase.... I know I'd have to.

Very nice, Ed! That's a good looking garage. (Spent a half hour squatting in the mud and rain wrestling with brakes on my truck today, I'm a bit envious

Those lifts are nice, Ed. My buddy's got one in his garage. Another nice perk is you can have 2 cars in the same slot!

Does it have a wood stove and wet bar tho? Geno PS, if I had one of those I might still work on our vehicles more often. At my age and with my "infirmities" I'm doing what Mooner did today unless I'm "out the road".

I like what you have there. I've been stewing about a two post so I can pull the wheels off and do break work etc. Still looking for the right deal.

If you work 40 hrs/wk: at 5% inflation and after 5 years, you need a 28% pay raise or to work 44 more hours (*one full extra week* per month+) to make up the difference.
This is inflation

I have enjoyed reading your posts over the years and I am really enjoying your retirement in a vicarious manner. You earned your toys, enjoy the hell out of them.

I have a sweet piece of plywood I put under my vehicles for the floor jack to roll on.
I'd post a pic, but don't want to hijack the thread......

Sweet setup Ed. Nice rides too! Glad you are enjoying your retirement.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
