I agree, I hate crawling under a car.

I want to use the U-fix-it lifts next time I need some work done so I can get under the car and see everything. $20/hr sounds better than $100-120.

Are they still open? I took a car there before, but thought I heard they closed down.

Would love to get my E39 M5 up on their lift and DIY instead of going to a shop when it comes time for service.
