Default lifts

Never heard of that company, but that doesn't mean anything. There are 50 different ones. So not including shipping that would be $5,014 with 9% tax added. Depending on where ya live. I like Advantage lifts, SUPER nice people to deal with. Great warranty on power unit, cables, pulleys etc. ALI certified. Extra goodies always offered. Right now they are giving away a tool box with purchase of a 2- post. And many other cool features. I have talked with them several times. They also are now the dealer for Backyard Buddy Lifts "MADE IN USA". Check out a couple videos on YouTube. When I get ready to buy again, it is going to be one of these companies for sure.

The premium accessory package Includes:

Drip Trays (set of 4)
Attachable Advantage Flapper end stops for added safety (4 Flappers)
Rubber wheel chocks for added safety when jacking up one end of your vehicle (2 chocks)
A set of casters with heavy-duty caster wheels (won't cut or mar your painted floor)
Rolling Jack Tray (4500 lb. with a drain plug)
36" Aluminum Ramps

Tuxedo is just a distributor. It would be nice if they posted what brand it is. It looks like a well known brand and comes with all the accessories, so may not be a bad deal. Send them an email ask who makes it.
Looks like they are out of TX. 800 number to call with questions.

Charley, I noticed that Advantage purchased Backyard Buddy when I was at Mecum Kissimee. Both good lifts.

We have a Challenger lift and love it. Slightly smaller profile and frame which allows for better space allocation in the shop but no sacrifice in tool function

The only thing they’ll tell you is that it’s made in China
