Rick, I apologize if I ruffled your feathers there. As you apparently know by now, draxa has been complaining about the boring civility (yawwwwn) in the forum lately. He was challenging us to start something and you fell into our trap. (Johnny, your beaver was for the trap, I mean hers - oh never mind.)
So on behalf of all us here who were in on it, I apologize again for any hard feelings.
Btw, here's another excellent thread on jacks that was posted here a few weeks ago:

Take a look at this. It's reasonably priced. I have four of the jack stands.

Ben, I'm sorry but that doesn't count.
It's clear in the rules: #56(b) says 'Premeditated spleen-venting or faux-cussedness when directed toward another forumist is NOT EVER construed as a breakdown of cordialty, no matter how much bile said spleen actually vents."
So there.

You wanna do something about that?

Based on that interpretation, I'd agree that this crowd is seriously "touched".
And I feel right at home.

Okay, enough of this tom-foolery - has anyone ever beaten my minus 1 degree record for hazardous (tire-changing) duty?
Oh...and to add insult to injury, I couldn't replace the destroyed tire with a exact duplicate because Goodyear is out on strike.

Following OCBen's advice, I picked up a Costco jack today and it looks like quite a bargain:
Arcan 2 ton
all aluminum
3.5" low / 19.25" high reach
wide, rubber-cushioned saddle
$99.99
looks sturdy & well built enough to lift my house
