Looks like the 4 post would give a nice advantage when it comes to storing cars underneath (as you showed in one of the pics), but is there something else? I like how you used the quickjack (which I currently have as well) as a means of allowing you to still use the 4-post lift, but get to the brakes/axles/suspension.
Thanks for the comment, I have been collecting my tools for about 15-years but honestly don't have more than $15k-$20k in them.

I decided on a 4-post for several reasons:
1) I didn't want to drill and anchor a 2-post into my floor.
2) 4-Post provides better vehicle storage
3) 4-post was the easiest over all to set up, most 2-posts are 240v, this 4-post is 110/120v.
