I'm about to pull the plug and get a mid-rise scissor lift. My buddy down the street, Mustang guy, did most of the research, and he thinks we should get the MR6 from Challenger (Each of us get one, not one for us to share. That would be weird.)
From the research I have done, all mid-rise scissors seem to work in similar manner and have generally similar performance specs. Searching on the World here I find a) most people regret not getting one sooner, and b) nobody has mentioned the Challenger MR6, which I find odd. See lots of Greg Smiths and HF models mentioned. So...does anyone have experience with this one and/or have a reason for or against, either for use with teener, or, for that matter, a Mustang? Would love a 2-post, but that's not an option in my garage. |

It looks exactly like my Bendpak MD-6XP except the MR6 states 6 lock positions while my Bendpak only has 3. Not sure how high your garage is but I can't raise my 914 or 944 to the top lock position in my 8' garage. So I can't use a sit stool to work under the car but a reclining creeper works great on the middle lock and normal creeper is good on the low lock position. You won't regret the purchase.
