I'd thought so too, but couldn't find the post, Costco says these picture are outdated and they are shipping the new models with a $300 off promotion in May.

Nice savings!

I thought you said you didn't have much room in your garage for one?

[JTB]

No, I got the space, our garage ceilings are double height.

That's sweet! Did you design the house or buy it that way?

Nice. Can never have enough garage storage space.

That's why the next Casa de G will come with a large detached garage/man shed for mustangs, misc. mod storage, lift, bikes/ATVs etc. It's already been Mrs G approved... which a big reason why there's been no TVS yet. Gotta play the game, ya know. :shades:

You may want to revisit the detached garage thing, freezing you bollocks off to walk to the garage is not fun they also cost $$ to heat and will need separate HVAC if not attached to your home or is this detached garage in addition to the ones on the house?

[Joe G]

or is this detached garage in addition to the ones on the house?

In addition to. We'll also have a 3+ car attached garage.

[JTB]

Sweet!

You'll need some LAND for that, how far from the city do you guys live?

[Joe G]

Sweet!

We have a few acres already. We're moving out of state once the current house sells.

So you are moving to the Country, how far will you be from the city?


You are moving out of SOTA?

What about your Buddy?

Danmars are decent lifts but Bendpaks are better...

Yes, but these are delivered FREE and can be returned or exchanged at any time if there is an issue.

My Bendpak was delivered free from Northern. I made the decision by rerading reviews. One, somewhere, showed all of the mods some guy felt he needed to do to the Danmar upon purchasing. He felt like it had many "cheap" features that needed upgrading. I'm no expert, but the Bendpak is first class.

Appreciate this feedback from someone that has one, I'm still researching, it looks like both brands have many ways to configure the lift with different features.

The Bendpak has about 8 variations in the 4 post. More than that for the larger models. I concentrated on desired lift height, footprint,capacity and flexibility to handle vans trucks and cars.

+2 I have the same lift. I've read some complaints about Danmar but never with the Bendpak.

[CH53Driver]

I've never owned a lift though I have dreamed about it often. I do know I've heard nothing but positive for Bendpak no matter what forum I've been on.

That's a good price for those features and payload, where is that lift made? USA?
