I use the 5000. But that's because I wanted to also use it on other heavier vehicles...

I recently got the 5000TL - the newer tall version that is supposed to give you 3” extra lift. Hoping to have it unboxed and assembled this weekend.

I am using the 7000TL, the new version that gives you the extra height. Like above poster, I got this version because I also have a truck and an SUV that I wanted to be able to lift.

P.S. Be aware, the operating manual for these jacks indicate that jack stands should be used for additional safety. See the link from jpipx above for a picture of a creative way to do that.
