You can use it on other cars also. The 3500 limits you, where the 5000 gives more lee way for larger cars. I have the 5000 and used it on the Wife's van and it weighs alot more then my Vette. No Problem.

The price of the 3500 model is attractive, but the 5000 would appear to be more versatile for those that want to work on other sized cars.

Ok guys here's the deal. I just ordered mine and tried to get every single discount I could, while still making sure everyone here could get the same deal. I spoke to a super friendly guy named Ryan at 805-933-9970 x124. Mention my name (Jason) and that you are on the corvette forum and you'll get the $100 off plus free dust caps for the ends of the hydraulic hoses ($20 off). It's the best I could do. I placed my order today and it came out to $1240 with shipping and the dust caps. I'm excited! Hope y'all enjoy it!

Let me know once you receive it, and how the assembly is. Photos would be awesome. I may purchase at the end of the month if I see some good reviews.

OK, make up your mind!

you going to borrow mine or do I need to make a road trip back to AZ when I need to use it.............

I would even be willing to go in 1/2's with you.............. maybe we could ship it to someplace 1/2 way between us............. fair and equal

seriously, unless you plan to use it for more than your Corvette, and use it often, it would be difficult to justify the expense
especially to the one usually holding the purse strings..............

Amen, couldn't have put it any better. She had a tough time with my explanation about the headers, said it works now doesn't it, why change it

Bought my 5000 on Amazon - included dust caps.

Love it.

It's one of those things which, after you get it, you wonder how you ever mucked around with floor jacks, jack stands, and blocks of wood for so long. I even use it for simple stuff like polishing wheels just so I don't have to bend over for so long.

A real luxury.
