Seeking wisdom from those who have installed a lift

I have a Bend Pak 10k 2 post lift.
2 things I reccomend. First, get a clear floor model. You don't want the cable cover on the floor making it a b*tch trying to push a disabled vehicle over it.
Second, get àn asymmetrical lift. This clocks the main posts so its easier to get in/out of the vehicle.
Third is buy much bigger than you think you need. I have put full sized Ram trucks on mine with no worries. Also, if you work on trucks, you can get a extra wide lift.
