I think it's a good deal. It's nicer than the less expensive steel jacks. It's aluminum so it won't rust, its going to be much lighter (if that matters to you) and like Swivel says unless you need to lift the whole car off the ground 1.5 tons is tons, haha. If you get it make sure you pick up jack stands too.
The $60 jacks (CT has one for $25) will do the job just as well but most of them will not go as low and high as the more expensive jacks (lift range).

i use the regular 2 ton jack on my coupe and there's more than enough clearance, plus im not gonna keep the jack out in the rain or anything so rust isn't an issue. So unless you have a slammed G that's 3 inches off the ground there's no point is getting the $130 aluminum one

and StCW, the 1.5 ton one isnt something you really wanna carry in your car all the time, it's honestly still too big for that

How do you like it? I haven't got a chance to pick one up yet, going later today.

Just something I found out about CT's site the other day that some of you guys might like to know. When you make an account on their site, you can sign up for sales notifications. Pretty handy if you want to wait until something goes on sale and don't want to check every week.

Hey cc_brandon, thanks for the heads up!
I read this post yesterday afternoon before leaving work and picked one up after dinner.

I hope I'm wrong when I say this, but I think the sale ended yesterday.

^^ Looks similar to mine which I bought at Princess Auto. Reg about $200 there, but IIRC I got mine when it was on a serious sale.
