    Even with one, I still do my oil changes on the ground with ramps. Not worth the time and effort to move vehicles around to get said vehicle on lift and then reshuffle vehicles after everything is done. The Mustangs on the other hand, when either one is parked on the lift. I'll take the opportunity to change the oil.

    The new Toyota will be getting the oil change at the dealer. My son's car and the Ram gets it done at home. Bonus...don't need to raise the Ram for the oil change!

    Just joined... 22 Wing Auto Club
    https://www.cafconnection.ca/North-B...obby-Club.aspx

    Has a couple hoists/tool bin/tire machines/wash bay/welding equipment and project shop. First job will be rebuilding the prop shaft u-joints on my 09 Rzr S. Most of the services have nominal charges like $3/hr for the hoist or $2/tire for tire machine.

    No more laying on my back for oil changes or touchless car washes in the winter....
