    Yeah. The other option is to just hang plastic from the garage ceiling. I'm going this route.

    If you can use air tools, get the air version. I use one hundreds of times per week. Keep it oiled and just keeps on going.

    Just picked up a 29 gallon 2hp 150psi compressor and the 1/2in stubby XT impact. Could not be happier, will make doing the lift 50x easier.

    I want to get that stubby impact. That thing is sweet. I meant to get up there Labor Day but never made it. I guess I'll wait for Black Friday, lol.

    Does anybody have any experience with their power washers? I'm in between the HF one or either Costco or Sam's one.

    I've been using the electric one. good for the money. now I want a more powerful gas one.
    IMO the Costco on would be better for warranty and return purposes.

    Bought one at Home Depot last year similar to this one:

    https://www.homedepot.com/p/PowerSt...tart-Gas-Pressure-Washer-ZRPS80312E/303636512

    I bought it (mine is exact same as video's, I think the one referenced above is also same with current colors) based on this guy's Youtube recommendation, around 5:15 mark:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyIVVXKxuNo&t=286s

    It has worked great so far.

    P.S. I also bought the foam cannon and some other items he suggests in the video for washing cars, they work great and this guy's recommendations for car washing are spot on.

    Do you enjoy the pressure washer and use it for more than just washing the car?

    I blew $90 on my foam cannon and the day it came in my pressure washer broke. I am in the market for a new gas one for the cars and the house.

    PS I would never use a microfiber mop on anything other than the roof of a vehicle.
    That makes me cringe.

    Yes I do like the PW and use it for other things, mainly used on cars / dirt bikes but also deck, screen porch, and concrete (
    PowerFit PF31023B Surface Cleaner, 15"
    https://www.amazon.com/PowerFit-PF3...&keywords=concrete+pressure+washer+attachment) driveway and walkways.

    I use the microfiber mop on my air cooled Porsche all the time, no issues. Then again I don't freak out on having a concours car, I drive and enjoy them.

    I lose years of my life trying to keep my Tacoma spotless. I couldn’t get anything fancier without really increasing my risk if a heart attack ;)

    Looks like a nice washer set up. I didn’t know Subaru made pressure washers.

    Cross posting in here because it's great info. The pro eagle extension can be retrofitted onto the aluminum jack

    I haven't mounted it yet. Doesn't come with mounting hardware. It looks well built, time will tell once it gets mounted.

    Search “pro eagle jacks” and their site will come up. It’s $100 for the base and extension.
