Trying to decide between [URL="http://http://www.pelicanparts.com/Mercedes-Benz/catalog/shopcart/TOOL/POR_TOOL_BNDpak-detail.htm[/URL] (the 5000 ex) or this

Not a giant price difference. Of course, I can buy the quick jack here.
The scissor lift has a height advantage, goes to almost 5 feet. But it's not portable, it weighs 1000lbs. The quick jack is quite portable but only gives you 24 in or so using the suv pads. Either will lift a cl140, r129 and 911, the current fleet. If I buy a quick jack now I can move it next Sept when we go to Va., the scissor lift I guess I'd wait on, or load in the horse trailer, I don't know.
I'm not sure the height advantage really gains you anything, you can't stand under a scissor lift anyway. My experience has been with 2 post lifts, but I won't likely have space for one at my new home, at least not for a couple years.
Thoughts?
