[s-cars] OEM jack sucks....what do people use otherwise?

[Bruce Mendel]

A year ago, I would have popped for one of those, or the aluminum unit from
Griot's. Now I am just a mere mortal and I got my jack from Sears on sale
for $29.95 in a nicely made injection-molded case that warps when you leave
it out in the sun on a track day and will no longer close properly.

Groan.
