Hello all, I am about to pull the trigger on one of these (Quick Jack 5000 TL), and was wondering if any of you are using this unit and what your thoughts are. Costco is offering these for $1300 delivered.

Thanks in advance,
John

Beware the extra-length models. I needed the 7000TLX (weight for my truck, length for my wife's Benz wagon). But so far I can't figure out how to lift the 914 without the jack interfering with the wheels/tires.

Is the 7000 too long to use sideways? Quickjack says it's safe, as long as the car has close to a 50/50 weight distribution, which I beleive the 914 does.
