    Anyone near Richmond, VA or King William county?
    Looking at a hi lift there. TW Express would be great.

    How much are they asking? You can get a new hi lift on Amazon with free shipping for like $70.

    My unsolicited advice is to get a name brand hi lift jack if you plan on using it. They're tried and true. The farm style jack can be very dangerous as it is.

    In response to your "unsolicited advice", what's the difference between the brand name Hi Lift and the "no-name" Reese farm style?

    Well for one, replacement parts for a hi lift are easy to come by. Also aftermarket mounting solutions for a tacoma meant for a hi lift may no fit the "no-name" due to subtle design differences.

    Then there's things that I can only speculate on such as the overall build quality. Is saving $30 worth going through the hassle of TW expressing something 4-5 hours north, plus it being "no-name"? That's subjective of course.

    Also when buying accessories, some accessories will not fit non hi-lift jack due to width and shape of of Jack's arm/head(?), and hole in it. (slider adapter might not fit, etc)

    Not sure if you've been following along with the planned route or not, but it's set to get to him in 4 weeks from now. I understand him wanting it sooner, but I just don't think anyone is going that far north that short notice.

    If someone can get it up to you, that'd be great. I'm all tapped out though. I drove 4 hours round trip to go get it so my part is done :burnrubber:

    I totally get it! TW Express definitely isn't the fastest thing, but it's damn effective.

    Seemed like a reasonable distance according to this map..

    Is it far? @Cativelense
