Thanks, Ordered from Swisstrax.
The lift is a Hippo TPLM707 from China you won't find it for sale locally, has to be imported(takes about 3 months). It's like a maxjax but with higher fixed columns that are move-able with wheels, 59" lifting height, higher load rating. Automatic safety locks. But same hydraulic system that requires no base/top plate. My ceiling is just under 11', I can't lift to full height, I work at half height using a stool. Here is a recent rod bearing job that shows the height I usually work at:

Should take your time one day and run the LED wires properly so they're not dropping down in some areas :P

They came wrapped up in a roll, it just took a few weeks for them to straighten out and unbend.

Under construction and currently in the second phase of this never ending project... ceiling cut 12'x8' to accommodate a 3' high tray, totaling a little over 12' of height to play with. Finally decided to go with the Bendpak HD-9

I have lifted our Lexus RX450h but only for oil changes, brakes and tire rotations. I have more than enough space, the right side is a little tight but I have a few feet to work with and enough to do brakes at each corner. If I wanted to, I could drill another set of holes and set anchors in the middle, but I haven't had the need to, I prefer having it where I can park two vehicles without having the move one of the columns.

Yes, it has worked out well.
Any lift has good and not so good. With this the center of the car is not the greatest to access but definitely workable. I love having no posts to work around.
