I bought the larger one and really do like it. My car isn't lowered but the jack slides under with plenty of clearence. It'll pick quite high. I've had mine for some time now and I paid $169.00. Right after I bought mine they went down to $149.00 and that's a steal for the quality you get. I've heard bad things about Sears jacks, leaking and such.

It's lasted longer than the Sears 3000lb aluminum jack I had. Plus, it's much lighter.
