The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) XXXIII

Hotrodz · 08-07-2019, 02:15 PM

With interest rates falling, I am considering going full stupid as I need to finish remodeling the house and landscaping the backyard. I already have a three car garage but it is not enough so I think I may do another two car with a RV garage.

First time at the beach. Lab/aussie is what the previous owner told us. Shes looking more like some sort of bully/x. Shes smaller than most larger breed pups at her age.

Tempted to just go ahead and order the thing and finance it. Also tempted to wait a month and put it on the credit card for points. Decisions, decisions...

For almost same price you can look at the bendpak HD9, can support a ton more.

Since I don’t have to pay for any of it, I say do all the above!

I can get the Danmar with accessories I want for $100 more than the Bendpak lift w/o accessories. The Bendpak with the same accessories adds up more than I'd like (30% more). The Danmar columns are slightly shorter, which makes the clearance to the open garage door more comfortable. The Danmar has a 3 year warranty vs a 5 year warranty for the Bendpak.

Weight is not a consideration. The Z weighs half the capacity of the Danmar. And with my ceiling height limitation, the lift I could get on an SUV or pickup truck would be minimal. Certainly not any more than I could get on jack stands anyway.

I did a quick search on google and it looked like they were the same price, within $100. Sounds like you got a good plan in place.

9' ceiling?

Not even. It's like 8'-4"

Actually after some double checking just now, the Bendpak columns won't even fit.
