I read those threads on the Grassroots site. It looks like most if not all of the initial complaints have been resolved.

I like the EXT. The extra 6" between jack points is perfect for 3 out of 4 cars (not needed for the 911).

Last weekend I lifted my wife's Highlander and did an oil change, replaced rear rotors & pads and bled the brakes. So much easier with all 4 wheels off the ground at once! Then I did an oil change on the MB E350.

I haven't tried yet but I feel pretty certain that there is plenty of room to do an engine drop, as others said, especially if you remove the rear bumper. It's about 19-20" of clearance, which doesn't sound like a lot but looks like enough in person. It seems about like the same clearance as when we dropped my motor using the "dog in heat" method a couple of years ago.

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.
