Charlie, these guys are not typical home users. If they can't set up a lift, well.... Slab thickness is a legit concern but I am sure there are ways to find out, or cut a hole & pour - I'd probably do that anyway for piece of mind to make sure it is deep enough and strong enough concrete. I've seen cars fall off lifts & it is not nice. But I don't see either being a deal breaker here.

I totally see reasons for both types, no doubt, and would never fault anyone's decision. But if I could only have one gimme a 2 post. Now, if I had room for 2, lol....
