Because why not. Lol!
When I was building the garage it hit me I might be able to fit one inside so I bought one. It is a full size commercial jump house. Kids love it and the parties are not weather dependent. The garage is completely sealed, insulated and climate controlled with heat and AC. Turn off the lights, turn on the stereo and disco light and it is a mini rave for the kids.

OK, I'll play....although compared to what I'm seeing here, more like a car closet! LOL!!! Bouncy house? Oh c'mon! Crazy awesome garages all!

Forgive the unfinished back wall and ceiling, those will be waiting until spring.....new lighting too!

Hey Pauly, is the tile holding up well from driving on it? I had thought about doing this in my garage with the large tiles.

Yes it’s holding up great. I did 24x24 porcelain, actually picked a pretty inexpensive one. I have one small chip the size of a pen tip from dropping half of my exhaust from the corvette on the floor when I was replacing it. I didn’t expect it to come apart so easily when I was taking it apart and it fell from about 5 feet. Literally a tiny little chip mark that I would have to point out. Also easy to keep clean. I’ve spilled my share of fluids on it doing maintenance. It’s been 6 years and still looks new.

Thank you. I might go this direction!

So for those of you with lifts, what do you recommend? If you got a 2 post, do u wish you got a 4 post? Or vise versa...those with a 4 post wish they went 2?

I'm really ready to buy one but I just can't pick. Space isn't much of an issue as I have an RV garage (45x20 with 20' ceiling). And I just have my 2 camaros in there. as far as what I'd use the lift for, it would be basic maintenance. Oil changes, brakes, ect. Im not going to be pulling engines/trans. Space isn't an issue either with the 2 cars.



Id say I'm more leaning to the 4 post, but because I track the car, tires come off alot more often than normal, and that would make me think a 2 post would b better.

Bendpak 4 post all day! I went down the same road. Originally was going to put a 4 post on one side and a 2 post on the other. With the hydraulic rolling jacks…my 4 post lift acts as a 2 post. I have wheels off all the time. Never wish I had a 2 post. I store most of the time and work when needed. Great investment. All my buddies got the same one. My one buddy has a C5 that he tracks and has the same 4 post lift and loves it. Car is apart all the time!

+1 same here.....4 post BendPak. I also purchased 2 lift jacks (stupid expensive), so I can lift the car from the lift and pull tires, etc. It does come in handy.

And as mentioned…not cheap. I highly recommend getting 2 of the jacks. So easy to use and I have yet to not be able to do something on my lift that can be done on a 2-post.
