That's what I would say. Unless you plan on pulling your motor every other week it wouldn't be worth it IMO. It would just sit in the corner of your garage for months/years at a time. :-\

Garage? Whats that...oh yeah like big rooms with cars in them..Those things I wish I had.

Unfortunatly, we cant find anywhere around here to rent one of those suckers. Looks like Harbor Freight is the best bet.

Thanks peoples

Just get one cause you everyone will think your the swap pimp and know your ---- with a lift sitting in your garage. Just have a couple of your friend pitch in some money and by one together. It's just something nice to have instead of renting one.
